Newcastle v PNE
Only Bailey Wright and Ben Pringle kept their places in the starting XI as Grayson rotated his squad following last Saturday's win at Norwich - no doubt with half an eye on the weekend's league meeting with the Magpies.
Simon Makienok - PNE's hat-trick hero in the previous round at Bournemouth - Liam Grimshaw and Ben Davies were among those to come into the side.
