We're up a goal and now have a tricky away tie to win to get through to the semi finals. This Cup is probably the most likely chance of any big success we'll get this season so I am keen for this squad to progress as deep as it can, plus winning form in the Cup can often translate over to the league. Hoping there to get enough of a boost to be able to stay up in the U23 Super League. This trip is complicated by losing Hester to a red card in his first start of the season, he might have been in line to play here in such an important game but that's football I guess! We'll have to work out how to keep control of this tie from the kickoff against a Derby side that Pete will certainly give a rev up to.
