It just won't go in! This time Swansea's Marvin Emnes drives through the central areas and drags a low shot just wide.

Wigan keeper Ali Al Habsi is having a stormer against his former club. Liam Trotter wins the header, but it's another excellent stop.

Swansea spurn a glorious chance to take the lead when 20-year-old Bolton-born midfielder Jay Fulton controls the ball eight yards out but fails to get a shot away. Garry Monk's men are struggling to make their dominance count. Still, 77% possession looks good.

Esteban Cambiasso's FA Cup debut last a shade over 25 minutes.

The Argentine, a veteran of Champions League finals and World Cups, trots to the sidelines to be replaced by Marc Albrighton.

BBC Final Score

Final Score pundit John Hartson keeping his eye on the action at Deepdale: "Preston have had the lion's share of possession in the first 25 minutes.

"Preston are going well in League One this season, so they'll fancy causing an upset against Championship opposition.

"But, there's been little in terms of goalmouth action so far."

It is nearly a second for League One Bradford City in their game at Championship side Millwall. James Hanson's knock-down falls to Andrew Halliday, but he cannot control his effort as he volleys over the crossbar from eight yards out.

Leicester should be one up.

Newcastle goalkeeper Jak Alnwick's cross-collecting has not improved and his punch drops right to Tom Lawrence 15 yards out.

The former Manchester United man, making his debut today, scuffs his shot wide though.

The visitors have had the better chances but it is the hosts who take the lead. Luton keeper Mark Tyler concedes a penalty, Robbie Simpson takes it, Tyler parries the ball on to the the woodwork but Simpson reacts quickly to fire in the loose ball.

"Blyth are playing very, very well and Birmingham are not dealing at all with the conditions. You know what you're going to get when you drop down the divisions. Gary Rowett will be particularly disappointed with his central midfielders, who have not yet won a single second ball."

Reporter Jacqui Oatley at Craven Cottage: "It's been an absolutely dreadful game so far. I'll do my best to tell you what's happened, but there's been little to report."

Nothing to separate either side here, with both teams cancelling each other out early on.

Good pressure from Blyth once more, captain Robert Dale works some space on the edge of the box and fires in a shot which is well blocked by the Birmingham defence. Blues then go direct, that's the way today, and they hit Wes Thomas over the top. Good defending though.

Gateshead's Alex Rodman has been the best player on the Hawthorns pitch so far today.

He jinks inside his man before sending a disappointing trundler of a shot wide.

On the sidelines, Tony Pulis is ratcheting up the volume to try and shock his flat-lining West Brom side into life.

Leon Best. There's a name we've not heard for a while. The Derby striker is handed a rare start by Steve McClaren but fires over the Southport bar when well-placed inside the penalty area. That was seconds after Craig Bryson's shot clipped the post.

Best, incidentally, has played 15 times for Derby in the Championship this season. All 15 appearances have been off the bench and he is yet to score. A not-so-super sub it seems.

Now it's Joel Logan who goes close for Rochdale with a curling shot which is well saved. All Dale.

Still very tight and cagey in the all-Premier League clash at the King Power.

After Remy Cabella gives the hosts' Paul Konchesky a bit of bother at one end, Anthony Knockaert and David Nugent almost set up Tom Lawrence at the other.

Can we have our ball back please? Tranmere simply can't get near Swansea and it seems only a matter of time before the visitors score. They go close again, this time Bafetimbi Gomis having a shot turned over from 12 yards out. Good cross from Modou Barrow to create the chance.

This game just cannot get going. First, this tie was delayed by a problem with one of the Oakwell stands, now there is another lengthy stoppage after just two minutes.

And it is an unfortunate circumstance for Middlesbrough defender Rhys Williams. He crumbles to the turf with an injury and is carried off on a stretcher to be replaced by Milos Veljkovic.

BBC Final Score

Steve Claridge on new West Brom manager Tony Pulis leaving his seat in the stands: "He's thought 'hold on a minute, if I can get down there on the touchline and up the tempo a bit, it's better than being sat up here'.

"He wants the players to push forward a bit more and show some more intensity and he probably feels he can get his point across better from the touchline."

"Blyth have been doing well but every time Birmingham get an opportunity to put that ball into the box they will do so, and it'll cause problems for the hosts."
