He was utterly useless, only beaten in his uselessness by Bentecke. It was the attack that was the problem, not the midfield. Once those two clowns came on the midfield had no out and when the ball did go forward it just came straight back.

underdog Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 (edited) Sorry to say we got what we deserved. We slowed the game down and time delayed a lot. Don't think crewe were much in it unti 86th min when i think they got their 1st corner. Feels like a loss..but its a point. Now time to drink and roar newport on Edited February 16, 2019 by underdog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he's spent an awful lot of time on the bench since being injured in December. I like Hunt but it's not the first time he's looked poor. I’m sure that 2 months on the naughty step hasn’t helped and neither has playing and did playing at right back when his natural position is on the left Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yarddog73 Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Baxter had a good first half, best I've seen Maouche over 90 minutes, Nepo very good but Edmondson was my man of the match. Fitness and injuries looked an issue last half hour just hope we can turn it round for Morecambe on Tuesday. What's wrong with Vera today? Not even on the bench.

Flemboy Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Totally gutted.We outplayed Crewe and deserved to win but we must get that that vital second goal and be more ruthless when on top.Again crap ref cost us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneSizeFitz Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Thought 1-1 was a fair result. Today serves to highlight just how lacking we are in quality outside the first XI, and that's why I don't think we'll make the playoffs.

josh_latics Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Not sure Scholes could have done anything different. Lang injured, Baxter and Dearnley blowing since about half time. Frustrating. COG with the worst cameo since Ali Dia. Truly embarrassing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafc1955 Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Subs weakened us enormously...get the Forest & West Ham loanees out there and I hope we would be much stronger. Considering they were fresh against a tiring defence Benteke & GOG were poor. I think Crewe probably deserved something from that even though it was due to us sitting back and trying to hang on and protect what was a precarious lead. A little disappointed but a win Tuesday will make the Bury game interesting. I hope the pitch is sorted for next season as it’s absolutely shite yet again!!

He was only over fussy for us. He let them get away with getting at least 5 yards advantage regularly. His bounce-up where he blocks our midfielder in what was supposed to be a 50:50 bounce up, after giving the ball a weird spin release summed him up.

Ref was garbage, so was his linesman. For both sides though if I am honest. There is a real problem in English football with the level of refereeing, it’s actually embarassing at times. I thought 1-1 was a fair result also, and as bad as the ref was, that wasn’t the reason we didn’t win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

latics22 Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Ref pathetic, nepo is really really good! The Utd kid isn’t a striker, bragner is a waste of time show pony. How many time did he fuck about in thier box, just pass the thing ! COG isn’t to blame, pointless him bein up top essentially on his own. Hope Lang isn’t serious injury, he is prob our best player with nepo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP90 Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Branger may have had a few good games, but he wasn’t the best today. Slowed us down on the break trying to get the ball back on to his left side. Doesn’t take much homework for oppositions to pass on to their full backs that if he plays on the left he will try to beat you down the line and if he’s on the right he will cut in. Every time! Possibly come up with abit of skill 1 in 4 runs to beat you. Otherwise just stand him up and he will more than likely give the ball away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not his best game, but was inexplicably out on the right hand side for large parts of the game, guess you missed that? Still had some nice touches and interactions though.

Ogdenwoodwhittle Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Agreed subs didn't work out today. If we are pressing up the field we need all forwards to work as one. Branger needs to play ball quicker when one on one Still havnt seen anyone better than us so got to keep on playing with a quicker tempo which causes defenders at this level problems Once again poor ref who was backed up by a poor lino on the moan stand side. Roll on Tuesday with a stronger bench please and play to feet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had we decided to go for broke, instead of trying to defend ( time wasting cost us today) a 1-0 lead, we would have sat , 4 points off the play offs with a game in hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
