There were fixed fortunes meanwhile in Group Two for our divisional rivals as first Morecambe lost 1-0 to a Nathan Clarke goal in the opening minute at Bradford City's Coral Windows Stadium. Preston though thrashed Middlesbrough 5-1 at the QED Stadium, Bamber Bridge to get their cup campaign off to a flyer.
A double from Jamie Douglas, a penalty from Adam Barton and strikes from youth teamers Neil Dougan and Jamie Proctor being the North End ammunition while Gary Martin got the only goal for a young Middlesbrough side. Next week sees little going on in the divison as only Morecambe and Oldham lock horns at Christie Park, Tranmere though again involved in cup action - this time at Sheffield United.
