Shawcross ready to step up

Former Stoke City captain Ryan Shawcross has said he will relish the opportunity to take charge of the team against Fleetwood Town in the League Cup third round. The 36-year-old will be supported on the side-lines by first team coach Alex Morris following Steven Schumacher's sacking on Monday. “The work the team has done to reach round three, with young sides overcoming contests against Carlisle United and Middlesbrough, has been impressive – and the prize at stake this evening is significant.”
