Derby County 1 - 3 Crewe Alexandra - FA Cup

DERBY COUNTY v CREWE ALEXANDRA FA Cup #1 replay


1945 Tuesday 14th November 2023
Just when we get a good momentum going, along comes a distraction which serves to derail us or does it?

The perennial question arises, is it better to get knocked out of a cup and expend more concentration on getting promoted or would you like to see a decent cup run? Tuesday will tell us.

So, to win or to not be embarrassed? I'm not going on Tuesday -school night - but will be listening avidly on RD ready with the GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGOOOOOOAAAAAALLLLLLs - hopefully


Team news:- Wildsmith (GK), Wilson, Forsyth, Hourihane (C), Cashin, Barkhuizen, Bird, Collins, Smith, Sibley, Nelson.

Subs:- Vickers (GK), Ward, Bradley, Waghorn, Robinson, Cox, Fapetu, Brown, Weston.

I've had to cancel my athletic comeback after a freak back injury yesterday. I now have a posture similar to Uncle Albert.

Got my football fix today by watching 'Boot Dreams' on iplayer, following talented young players who have not made a success of it, for some reason or another. Not just a case of turning up on a Saturday and performing.

It certainly isn't. My footballing career failed due to a George Best lifestyle without the George Best talent.

On the radio the other day the presenters were talking about Bobby Charlton. One of them wondered how marvellous it would have been to have seen Manchester United's great triumverate playing in the same team at thie peak: Bobby Charlton, George Best and Dennis Wise.

Could have been worse; George Best, Denis Law and Bobby Duncan.

Very, very rare for there to be a 48-hour gap in communications on comments on the match, prediction, or our other threads. Complacency is not our friend. 🐧
