Neil Lennon has called on his Bolton side to bring some relief in a tough time for the club with a win at playoff contenders Reading.

David Dunn claimed his second win as Oldham boss thanks to two second-half goals in Chesterfield, despite what the manager called an out-of-character first-half display.

Rochdale boss Keith Hill says his players need to start grinding out results if they are to retain their League One status, starting with Wigan Athletic at home tomorrow.

Oldham’s injury-hit squad returns to League One action at Chesterfield this weekend, with the form books suggesting Latics could snatch an away win despite having won just twice this season – the fewest in the division.

David Dunn says he is relieved Oldham avoided a cup upset at the hands of Mansfield, but remains disappointed as the Stags forced a Boundary Park FA Cup replay on Saturday.

Neil Lennon has urged his Bolton players to follow his example and show calmness under pressure when they face Bristol City in a crunch clash tomorrow.

The FA Cup first round kick-starts in earnest tonight with Salford City the first of four Manchester non-league sides out to cause an upset against Football League opponents.

Rochdale assistant manager Chris Beech says the team simply have to go for it in their first FA Cup tie with Swindon Town since 1913.

David Dunn is looking forward to facing familiar opposition in more ways than one this weekend, as his Oldham side travel to Mansfield Town in the FA Cup first round.

It’s that time of the year when the FA Cup gets underway, putting teams from different Leagues against each other in one of the world’s foremost footballing knock-out competitions.

Keith Hill has stuck the boot into his misfiring Rochdale attackers after Saturday’s 2-2 draw at Southend United.
