Personally I hope Crewe go down, but then that would mean us losing and then Crewe losing too. Not sure I can stand the tension if you are winning and we are then looking elsewhere for hope.

Completely agree. What's the point in playing someone who clearly isin't going to be suited to this kind of battle? Barton tends to get margiinalised in physical battles and he is often crowded out and dispossessed. What's the point of him even being out there of the pitch? He lacks pace and...

He might not, but TM identified weaknesses last week and we all know Nouble has been absent and Barton was removed at half time. I would play Maddison. I don't care about the 'magnitude.' The game will be very high temp from Crawley and they will get stuck in and that sort of game doesn't suit...

I sincerely hope not. Barton cause he will probably be bullied out of the game and Nouble.because he hasn't looked remotely interested lately.

Then some gave in and took up golf and ended up in bunkers.

But still, you have to admire their gung ho approach, cause they kept pushing forwards and by the end nearly all of them ended up in the box.

Yep. Exactly that team for me too. Willis is dreadful attacking, but tomorrow we need solidity at the back and Philips last week didn't give us that at all and looked very shaky when being ran at. Maddison too for me, cos he offers that little bit of trickery and skill and I think they may have...

Yep, a shambles. Lack of pace, no recognised keeper, weakness in the centre of the park and strikers who couldn't score. Besides that, it all went swimmingly.

But they had plenty of possession and used to get lots of shots on target.

Totally agree. We need more Baker, or JOB type players.

He definitely weakened the squad. Yes, he had the old age problem of hands tied, but he still recruited very poorly and left great big gaps in the playing squad where we desperately needed players (Keeper, middle of the park).

Oops!! :facepalm::D Edited to make it sound like a much more serious point.

The error of SP's ways was him taking up football management.

If your football team is that important to you, then surely you wouldn't want to risk having a 10 year ban imposed on you whereby you couldn't then watch the team you love, would you?

The whole thing is bleedin common sense though isn't it, when you think of it.

Only in 1930's Nazi Germany. Pretty sure Adolf played 3-5-2

Steve Cotterill on how to build a title winning side Find a formation that suits "We were already playing the 3-5-2 at the end of last season, so it's a formation I'd been looking at for a little while," Cotterill told BBC Sport. "But what I needed to do was make it better than the season...

Well true, but at the end of the day this is a game of football. I am passionate about the City, but wouldn't risk getting a criminal record over it or being banned for god knows how many years. Not exactly life or death or civil liberties, or a threat to your family or a great personal...

Chilly up there today in the north was it?

I'm all for it, we've lacked strength in the middle of the park all season long.
