I don't think you will find many Alex fans who will disagree with you - but equally let's not lose sight of the fact of what makes this club almost unique. Saturday was another great day to show what...
I feel a bit of perspective is required here, if only for the sake of balance.
Much easier to play "one (or more) of our own" in leagues 1 and 2 than the Prem - but it's still a fun fact...
Oh Mike, and you were so close as well ;)
Steady!!
That's the sort of comment that will really fire up the doubters.
Not necessarily the "only" way, but definitely the Crewe way!!
And that is what we are about after all, and long may it...
Ouch!!! ;)
Green has proved himself (in less time as well).
Walker hasn't!!
Well, I'll be honest, I expected to lose both - especially Jonah!!
So to secure his services for another 6-12 months at least is a real bonus.
Come on, Callum lad, you know it makes sense ....!!...
I won't be writing a match report here - so don't get too excited! ;)
I haven't the time - or inclination - so I shall summarise!
Really decent performances from Perry, Pickering and Ainley....
I hadn't really thought about that but you might be onto something.
I was scratching my head wondering why Richards signed up again .....
In the end, yes, but I agree, he deserved the time to try and fix it.
He couldn't and his time was up!
I also think we both agree Dave's time clearly isn't!!
If I was Artell and just read all of this, I'd walk.
At least WBW would get his wish.
On that we can agree ......although I can only go back as far as the 70s!
Perhaps I wasn't clear enough, I have never said football is more enjoyable nowadays - indeed , I say quite the reverse!!...
And people talk about the academy being an out-dated concept.
Harping back to the 60s definitely is.
We won the World Cup in 66 with a large slice of luck, home advantage, some world class players...
Coming as that does in the same thread that you started (with a very ominous title), that's very magnanimous of you! ;)
On a serious note though, don't you think there are far too many knee-jerk...
Anyone else been tracking the latest exploits of our former academy grad who we let go for nothing?
50 goals in 95 games for Newtown in the WPL and now 24 in 35 for Stockport County in the National...
To be honest, can you blame them?
League 1 to League 2 is one thing but League 2 to oblivion .....???
Not many of us subscribe to that!
Ouch!
Hit me where it hurts why don't you?!!! ;)
Yeah, I know I don't go as regularly as others - most southern-based away games and usually one at home (Yeovil) per season. But on the whole I do...
You see, this is what I don't get!
If it is "a very **** league", very **** compared to what?
And if it is "a very **** league", what does that say about us, lying in a lowly 17th??
And if it is...
I've made my views perfectly clear on statements like this.
It's not a **** league, it's just ****tier than the league above, that's why it's the league below.
And so what if Acc S are winning it?...
Precisely!
It's a results business and we got the result!!
How on earth is that a mis-managed game??
You often hear "let's hold on to what we have", and we all know we are the world's worst at...
Clueless? - get a life, mate!!
Beating a team in the play-offs? - away from home? - scoring 4?
Give me a clueless manager any day in that case!!
Artell and Lunt seem to be getting the best out...
If I were you, I’d let it go! More worried about Mansfield myself!
Not being a native of South Cheshire, I don’t quite get the hostility between the Vale and Crewe. Growing up, it was Yeovil and...
Am I wrong in finding this just a little amusing, even if his pre-match comments did include "**** you Crewe, you model train set playing ****ers"? :)
Just taking it for what it is, not necessarily...
What can I say?
Poor game, poor result and awful conditions.
My over-riding memory was when Lowery was brought on - why?
I'm one of his biggest fans but this was not the game for him against a...
