I cannot find myself agreeing with being ill-equipped for the league! We were certainly well beaten in the end, but and it is a big BUT... had it been us that went 2-1 up, the score line could well have been even more one sided the other way round... we only concede the last two as a consequence of pushing for an equaliser. I would much rather us continue to try to get something out of a game, and lose an extra goal in the process....

Defensively we need organising, but that definitely doesn't equate to being ill-equipped. The personnel are there.

Humiliated is also a strong word! It wasn't a 4-1 game...

Sounds reasonable to me.... 4 yellows in a game isn't excessive, and he doesn't look to be card happy by brandishing reds week in week out. We can hope

our players on the night, didn't let anybody down and gave Villa a fright... well done them

Blimey, they would have been non-league when that clause was put in there... well done to Luton Town

Another good read, and thank you to Colin for a look at his background.

I shall miss it... will be travelling back from the smoke.

I hope for three points, I am just not confident at the moment... too much settling to be done. I also hope I am wrong

It is going to be great to have you writing for us, Thank you. Oh, and yes "I was there."

I have said it before, I am not a fan of Keepers as Captains. Good comments from Roy though...

well done S o B, nice piece

well done with article, I hope it is a case of "derby" and hopefully we can continue the season in a confident frame

they make Oxford strong favourites after Friday, we need to bounce back.

Sounds a little like he will get his team to approach this a la Westley... local derby does not and should not need any stoking.

I would expect both camps to be up for this... but it does sound like the ref may need to be on his game also

Sounds about right.... that is a very unfortunate photo... has somebody just got him to suck a lemon?

Very good views from the young man... interesting his thoughts on notts

Well Done @Canadian.... summed up the mood in this house for a couple of weeks

@hissingdwarf great spot... very third eye.

We need to keep SD and GA where they are... have patience for a change!

I like it, nice coup for us! well done notts-joe and cobby.

A very good read, really interesting to hear his thoughts on how it works.

As I have said elsewhere listening to it, a couple of our players let themselves down today and we need to find the balance between passion, fire, grit... and discipline, application and staying on the pitch

@super-ram how remiss of me to have overlooked this, thanks for sharing the update

Well done @notts-joe a great bit, that!

I have to say listening to the game on Fawaz radio, it seemed a good game attacking and mistakes from both sides, that could have been punished with more composure/confidence. Plenty of whistle by all accounts, but I hadn't picked up from that, that Crewe were a physical side, they have always been a side that like to come and play.

I was at the Colchester game, compared to our recent examples, he is going to be a refereeing breath of fresh air.

We have to open up against them, get the wingers on the ball and have at em... stay solid at the back, pace and power so lets have Thompson back up front, pleassssse
