Quakers take a break from the league and hope that they can start an FA Cup run at home to Workington on Friday night.

Quakers go into the game looking for their first home win of the season, with the caretaker trio of Will Hatfield, Jake Lawlor and Tom Platt in charge.

All three will probably be playing tonight, so that means goalkeeping coach Jim Provett and physio Danny O’Connor will be looking after the technical area.

Team news: Jake Lawlor returns from suspension

York won’t allow Finlay Barnes to play

Here's what caretaker manager Will Hatfield had to say:
