LEEDS UNITED: Cobblers missing loan ace
Leeds United's FA Cup opponents Northampton Town will be without the services of Sheffield United loan man Kyle Walker at Sixfields this evening.
The youngster's performance at right-back was the major redeeming feature of the Cobblers' 1-0 home reverse to Oldham on Saturday.
But he will not play at Sixfields tonight as he was not registered at the time of the original tie.
Also not featuring will be Karl Hawley, whose loan spell at Sixfields has now officially ended, with the former Carlisle hitman set to return to parent club Preston North End.
Cobblers boss Stuart Gray said: "Kyle played well, he reminded me a lot of Mark Little the way he got up the line. So that was pleasing.
"Karl Hawley was struggling to breathe after he got a bit of a bang in the ribs, so I'll need to speak to Preston about it.
"Him going back might release some money for a defender, so we'll have to see."
