We’ll win this!!!!
Won’t we???
Surely???
They’re bottom of the league!!!
Everyone beats these!!!!
I’ll go 1-1 as I’m not that confident
Now let me think?? Who scored in the last game??
Ah yessss, Noone or should that be No One (at least they won’t be dropped to the bench)
Could Bod be dropped, he scored our last goal
Evatt keeps you guessing
Cannot get excited now when there’s really nowt left to play for (mathematically there is, yes we know) but my spirits been well dampened by that Plymouth home loss and that powder puff performance v Morecambe

agree Rioch, little interest in this one now. will listen on the day. but can't be bothered doing much of a preview for it.
just a few basics.
we've Not lost to the bottom 5 sides HOME OR AWAY. in fact, of the sides from 16th and below, we've only lost once.
to Fleetwood 3-0 -away.
think we all know, Crewe are pretty hopeless. of their last 12 lge games. lost 11.
last 4 were all against the top 10 sides, and they've lost all 4 by a 2 goal margin. and 3 of those were at home.
they're ranked 10th in the possession rankings- not helping them much is it !!?
prediction :2-0 to us. Dion & Dapo to score.
if we get an early goal it could easily go to 3, 4, or 5. playing in a typical Crewe style, they probably won't offer too many aerial threats to us either, so it should be the type of game to suit us.

Dare I say it but it should be 3 easy points but without Fossey and Jones it will make it a bit harder than should be. 3-0 is the least we could hope for onwards and upwards stay safe one and all COYWM

This will be one of those games chip, where we either lose or draw and find out that all other results have gone in our favour and had we won, reduced the arrears to just 8 points and very catchable
Hope I’m wrong 😬😬

An ideal opportunity to get back to winning after the Plymouth disappointment.
I never like playing a side who are on a bad run – Crewe have lost their last 6 home games – but surely we have too much for them.
Disappointing loss of Fossey for the season and with Jones still absent, there is a problem down the right side of the team. Got a feeling that the manager will play Kachunga there but that breaks up the shape of the team. Sadlier would probably be a better choice on the right.
I hope he doesn’t fiddle with the team too much. Crewe are not a Burton, they won’t launch it high so our style of play should see them off.
I’ve some good performances at Gresty Road (Mornflake? – is that a breakfast cereal?) with just a Dean Ashton late winner to spoil my visits there.
I am expecting a Gillingham type performance with a comfortable 2-0 win.

I am expecting a Gillingham type performance with a comfortable 2-0 win. I remember getting roped in to taking 3 of me mates and our kid in me works van to Crewe in 88. Pissed it down and we got beat 2-1, think JT or Trevor Morgan scored for us. I used to have the Umbro kit before the Matchwinner Normid kit as I remember I had a thing back in the late 80’s early 90’s that I was always first at the club shop whenever a new kit came out It was handy knowing Alan who ran it (always knew when he was in on the account of his car reg A8 WFC)😃😃 |

I hadn’t realised we’d lost Fossey for the season, who knows if we’ll see him again now? You do wonder though with this injury whether we’ve been lucky until now because his records pretty poor on that front? It will be interesting to see who takes his place though, it could be Kacha or even Sadlier or Xav? Personally I’d give Sadlier a start because he’s ready for it and has been excellent when coming on off the bench. The thing is though, if Xav doesn’t get any game time, how can he prove himself? I’m actually not that impressed with what I’ve seen from him so far and kachunga’s just a wasted shirt for me so I’d go with Sadlier. I do though have a feeling Evatt will go with Baka alongside Dion with Bod coming on later. Not what I’d do but for some reason Evatt seems to rate Baka. Anyway, whoever plays we surely can’t fail to win this one so I’ll go 3-0 to Wanderers with Dion getting a brace. |

When I opened the thread and stated that I cannot get excited on this game, I don’t think the players can either
Pretty drab so far

Why when the weather is bad – windy in this case – or when the pitch is poor, do we play so badly?
There has not been any ball control at all. The ball is bouncing off our players endlessly.
Crewe have been the best team and attacked more whereas we just can’t pass a ball straight.
Poor

I can Chip, we have absolutely no idea how to beat teams like Crewe. Next season we have to vastly improve our set pieces. If teams pack their defence we should capitalise through corners and free kicks yet we are absolutely bobbins. Neither Johnson nor Aimson present any kind of threat in attack and the less said about Santos the better. It’s such a shame when you look at the incredible support the team have had at every away game yet delivered precious little for them. We don’t even try a near post header from corners, there’s just no idea or invention in our play. It wouldn’t at all surprise me either if it got worse yet and we lost this to a sucker punch. Worst team in the league, conceded most goals and we can’t even put one past them. Disgraceful.
