Wigan were also upwardly mobile as they leapfrogged Stockport with a 1-0 at the Hatters, it's 11 defeats from 11 for Accrington though as they went down 3-2 at Preston.

Shrewsbury's straight to penalties win, after the tie had finished 2-2 after 90 minutes, at home to Burnley was the biggest shock in United's Northern Section of the League Cup. Carlisle themselves winning through to the quarter-finals of their area with a 2-1 home win over Mansfield thanks to goals from Jonny Blake and a Matt Duffy penalty.

On Saturday morning the young Blues are back to league action as they look to make it fifteen matches unbeaten in all competitions. The lads facing a trip to a mid-table Bury side that they thumped 4-0 at home earlier in the season, all the goes that day coming from an on-form Andy Cook.
