What a man Big Dave is! Okay he can occasionally lose his way with his articulation but mostly he talks the talk. In this latest interview, in addition to talking about the games, he was able to give his views on the tragedy re: the young player Whis - read more ...

I agree about the Jaskelainen comments. No player should be able to receive the ball with their back to the goal, 25 yards out and then have time and space to swivel and pick their spot in the corner. Once he got the ball the gap was easy to see and - read more ...

At the moment it looks like Ainley and Dale should be in the team. Ainley for the reason that he combines well with Pickering, Wintle, and Kirk, and his little tricks confuse opponents. Dale mostly because Powell at the moment seems to be our of so - read more ...

I wouldn't have used Finney yesterday. His strength is finding positions from he is able to shoot. This relies on the midfield having control and having the space and time to pick him out. At no time in the game were conditions right. What he needed - read more ...

I agree with you, gobstopper, on the merits of Nottingham over Beckles - nothing against him but he doesn’t look as dominant in the air or as confident. Both of them have a mistake in their game but Nottingham and a Offord were a good partnersh - read more ...

Do we need any more recruitment
Crewe Alexandra FC 24 Sep 09:24 - Wartman, 1516 views 9 replies
I stick to my original comments. Apart from Porter none of the proposed players are strikers. We are short of strikers and have no logical replacements if injuries occur. That is precisely why we need at least 2 new strikers. Of course you hope a - read more ...
