An enthralling and entertaining afternoon. Green was a leader; the Academy lads proved their worth (and probably upped their value); and the bought-in lads blossomed. The manager continued his...

Football is like family. When a friend's family member has a horrific accident and dies, we all feel the pain.
Today Foxes fans, we feel your pain and send our love, sympathies and condolences.
Steve Davis took a relegation-threatened team to the Div 2 Play-offs at Wembley, successfully, in his first year, and less than 12 months later we won the JPT at Wembley. By then there had been a dip...
How embarrassing. Considering words are my 'game'. Clearly it wasn't time for 't'.
Yes, it should have been that I 'can't' be with you.
This sounds like a fantastic opportunity to have your say about the club, and demonstrate that it really belongs to the day-in-day-out, rough-with-the-smooth, fans. Just a pity that I can be there.
What disturbs as much as the scoreline and reports of a really dreadful performance is the manager's comments to the Chron. He blamed the players; he says 'we'; but never once does he use the word...
Perhaps the line-up and substitutions were a reflection on the fact that there is a game on Tuesday? I was very impressed with the 'team-feel' to the game, along with energy and direction.
Loads of...
I was very impressed when he came on for George Ray. Took a while for the team to settle to the change, but Hunt did what he had to do with aplomb.
What a fabulous day out! I wasn't going to go (150-mile round trip when I'm doing the same on Sunday is a bit much) after the lacklustre performance against Morecambe. I ain't half glad I did. Well...
I remain sceptical. The team have been playing invigorating football, but we have still looked dire at times. The management team seem to have hit on a formula that encourages team spirit. Excellent....
Survival in the League - particularly with a squad that was chosen by the manager and heralded at the time as being good and strong - is not an 'achievement'. Dave Artell is going to have to learn...
Very unimpressed with the second half. I don’t normally comment on substitutions, but those two late on seemed odd, and didn’t do us any favours.
The ref was what I would now class as the usual...
I'm letting that comment by a Sheffield United supporter (need we mention rape claims involving a footballer they happily took back - and even if it wasn't actual rape, showed a distinct lack of...
The game against Notts, for me, summed up our sinking state.
First half was vigorous and allowed the lads to work together; 2nd half, I don't know what was said to them at half time, but they came...
Over this season I have seen one constant: lack of coherency that has led to our usual appalling consistency. The players have been roundly blamed, as have the directors, and this thread questions...
Congratulations to George for scoring for Peterborough on his debut.
I just thought I'd return to the subject of the thread. I get rather bored with all this 'get rid of the Academy' bumf. It's a...
Personally I wish him well. Maybe a different style of management will suit him - as it has so many who have left the Alex. It's a step up.
I’m ‘amused’ by those who demand that the Board should spend all their millions on making Crewe Alex a 1st Div or even Championship club. Apart from one director, I don’t think any of them are in the...
I agree with Mick. Grimsby were far from bad; we were just a lot better - the best I've seen us play for a long time. Cambridge were poor - and trounced us; Crawley were poor - and we beat them....
Agree on every level, Somerset.
We have been inconsistent since the end of the season when we won the Div 2 play-offs. I believe that managers must play a role in that, as we have seen early this...
Interesting (not really, just symptomatic of our inconsistency), but the victorious team yesterday was the same, apart from Bowery replacing Porter, as the defeated side on Wednesday.
It would have...
Love it CreweBacca.
It could've been even more unbalanced if the ref had read his rule book - and sent their keeper (I think the only Crawley player not to appear on Crimewatch) off. His foul on...
I believe we Alex fans have earned the right to be sceptical. Yesterday’s hard fought (OK, battleground by Creepy Crawley) victory will have brightened our hopes, as well as move us up the league...
Thank you Ruocol and AstonAlex. I also believe: 1. We have to get behind the team; and 2. the squad, on paper, is stronger than last year at this time.
We seem to have been beset by injuries in a...
Taking a long, hard look at Saturday's game in retrospect (and a totally personal view), I think we deserved to lose. A draw would have been very welcome, but for much of the game Luton did not look...
