Interesting timing that this has come up within a week or so of another one of our players having the polar opposite experience in going though a mental health crisis.

Becoming too involved with yourself and not being able to perceive the bigger picture is the fundamental issue, I think, and no coincidence that a mental health crisis is accelerating out of control in the west with the rapid decline in Christian faith, and numerous dark forces seeking to exploit and fill that void.
I've long felt that the worst thing to happen to this country was Christianity in the 4th century and the 2nd worst thing is getting rid of it.

Amen to that!

But Crowley didn't start the thread did he!

No, but he was happy to discuss his faith publicly. It would be strange if it didn't get a mention on here, and all the replies have been respectful.

Like Crowley, great footballer and one of the best of this division but today I thought without him we showed a lot more urgency.

Given the space Harrogate afforded us, especially in central areas today, I think Crowley would’ve absolutely ran the show today and made them look silly.

That's more like it. The first half in particular was crying out for Crowley's inventiveness. We played with fire today, 1-0 against a really poor side. One of their shots at the end could have easily flown in and spoiled everything. Crowley was missed.

I felt this was undeniable. That doesn't mean we are a better team without him, and I noticed Palmer was playing at times exactly where I think Crowley is at his best. But still, I felt we were more urgent yesterday and I enjoyed watching that even if the end product frustrated quite a lot!

Reading the comments from Harrogate fans they were dismayed at their performance yesterday. I do feel they allowed us to look good whereas when better teams such as PV and Gillingham have visited they have employed tactics in midfield that block us. One goal was a poor return. I am not denying the 3 points but when the opposition play that badly we should be cleaning up and the number of goals from midfield is very poor. We even nearly let them back in at the end for a very undeserved point. Lets see how we get on against Doncaster in a couple of weeks. Should be a good barometer stick away from home. I would like at least 1 point.
