Campbell gets a chance
It's not sure if Earnie will get a last chance to beat Stan Richards' record of 30 league goals in a season.

Andy Campbell,it's reported, has been told he will definately start the game along with Gareth Whalley and Mark Bonner.

Whether Earnie will be on the bench is as yet unknown.

Lennie told Wednesday's Echo

"There will be rotation for the match at Crewe. I want to ensure every player is at their sharpest, whether they are in the starting line-up or on the substitutes bench. When we faced Stoke City in the play-offs last season I looked at our subs and they were players just back from injury and struggling for match fitness.

"That won't be the case this time - I want everybody match fit as we go into the semi-finals. Everybody in the 16 must be absolutely ready to play for 90 minutes."

City will also be without Daniel Gabbidon, who is rested after suffering a groin strain and Martyn Margetson is doubtful, he missed training on Tuesday after being out with tonsilitis.

More exact team / squad news should become available later on Thursday.
