Reardom scores after we didn’t deal with the free kick. Seemed to bounce off Farman.

Can’t take chances and can’t defend results in this AGAIN!!

I'd take Mahoney and Pressley off at half-time and put Smith and Spence on !

Crap. Newby weak defensively to give away the free kick.

No bite whatsoever in midfield, Crewe winning all the second balls.
Popular side since '03.

Woeful defending soft soft goal. Newby a liability At right wing back again. Soft free kick from there straight though Farman maybe could’ve done better he kept it out but no one following up. Mahoney and Pressley should’ve scored about 5 mins earlier, shot was on but he passed to Pressley and was a weak finish.

Can’t blame the green kit either today!

Both sides creating opportunities but they have found the cutting edge. Gotta finds Pressley the keeper does well but if he headed downwards there was no saving it..

Mahoneys having a decent game. Finding space well. We need to take one of these chances. Think we will get a draw here

Powder Puff attempt to score from 3 yards out and shambolic defending from a set-piece.

Should be 0-1 not 1-0.

There is something to be had out of this game if we want it. Definitely needs new impetus early in the second half.We need a fox in the box to sniff out an opportunity

If we don't get something Andy Whing will go mental ,the whole team Jackson/ gotts apart just strolling about, no urgency, Commitment don't see ow Newby and Mahoney is working no link up play!
Whing needs to tell a few home truths in that dressing room!
