We have given Crewe to much time and space. Not closing them down quickly enough we need to be a yard close to the Crewe players.
We have created the best two chances of the game. Great save from Pressley header and Mahoney should have shot instead of laying it off the Pressley
As for their goal the ball should never have got through to Farman and should have been blocked before it got to him and left him exposed

Next goals massive, we don't want to be going in to Carlisle game on the back of two defeats. Lots of football still to be payed, last week will tell you that. Hopefully a few of them getting a bit of stick at half time

Crept under a poor wall.
We have got to make it happen instead of waiting for it to happen. Self belief is the all important factor.

Mistake from Canavan but it looked outside the box to me on first viewing of the replay.

Game over.

Right, Cheltenham did it to us, let's see if we have got the wherewithal to do the same.

We should have been after them from the restart but we’ve allowed them to control the tempo . Been far too easy for them this half
