So after an impressive display and deserved win against Barnsley we move on to our FA Cup 1st Round Replay at Home to Crewe Alexandra 

The first game at the Mornflake stadium last week was a game we really should've won with how much we dominated the game and after going 0-2 down showed good character to keep going and get a deserved late equaliser to take us into this game on Tuesday under the lights at PP

Crewe have since beaten one of the top sides in L2 in Notts County with a late winner, a penalty in 90+8 minutes from Courtney Baker-Richardson who has now become there top goalscorer this season after scoring the winner.

This will certainly not be a walkover and think we really need to be right at it and get off to a good start and if we play like we have of recent I'm confident we will see our way through into round 2 but Derby as we know have a habit of making things hard for themselves sometimes 

Onto Team selection and PW will be buoyed by the recent results at PP scoring 7 and conceding 0 in the last 2 and think maybe the only changes may be due to injuries as Nyambe and NML  who looked to have taken slight knocks.

I suspect a strong nearly un-changed line up for this one and a victory will be a great way to go into the break at a time where we would probably prefer to continue but it will give us a chance to get a few fit Waggy, maybe Ward and Washington ?

I will see you all again after the International break

p.s

After the devastating news from @angieram regarding Daniel aka B4 which has clearly shocked and affected  so many I would like to ask this of fellow Rams fans at the game on Tuesday and for the long season ahead please and I  sincerely hope this doesn't offend his family in any way.

If at any time during the match when his and our beloved Rams are playing , should a player make a mistake , a stray pass, miss an easy chance etc etc , before any of us think to berate or aim criticism at a player , maybe pause for a second think about B4 and then encourage and cheer on that player with the same enthusiasm  that Daniel would've done, as I'm sure he would love that...Once a Ram always a Ram !

With this being during the international break & with the injuries we have it will be an interesting line up - does he rest any players from yesterday or with having a week off mean they get tonrest after it. I cant see Nyambe, NML or Nelson risked after their knocks.

Vickers - Wilson Bradley Cashin Forsyth - Smith Hourihane - Sibley Bird Barkhuizen - Collins

Subs: Loach, Cox, Nelson, Hawkins, Allen, Barkhuizen, Wheeldon

Same team as I was going to suggest (pending Elder's fitness), though I would have liked a way to rest Collins too, if he'd got injured early yesterday then I think we'd have been in big trouble. Shame Dajaune isn't available to pair with Weston.

I’d be tempted to play Barkhuisen through the middle.

Force him into attacking positions and hope that he gets a goal to boost his confidence.

Be interesting to see the lineup for this. Robinson, Fornah, Washington and NML all received call ups, and we’ve also now got some injury concerns to contend with. Could see a few other young uns involved. 

DRobinson is available as he doesn't join up with N.Ireland U21s until the next day. I forgot about Fornah's callup, so I imagine one of Smith, Hourihane and Bird will start.

I had a look at the on line schedules, UK and International, and the only FA cup game is Barnsley’s replay on Itv4 andITVX, things may change.

Only hope is there being an illegal stream somewhere. Of course, it being illegal, we would never, ever watch it now would we?
