Sounded like Prutton had a good game. Robinson not as good as Tuesday and Eccleston only had 15 minutes.

Yes they did well in trying to get into Crewes faces but their striker was a real.handful especially in the second half and he waltzed through them a few times. Ecclestone ran his socks off in the time he was on, I already know his ability from watching him at Bpool but he didn't do himself any harm today.
Tell us more about Ecclestone SS if you have watched him at Blackpool

He was signed by Ian Holloway shortly after they were relegated from the prem. They were hoping he'd progress in a similiar fashion to Tom Ince and Matty Phillips but he didn't really get much ofca chance ahead of these two and made most appearances from the bench. Then Holloway left and the instability in managers didn't help his cause as they wanted to play a very direct system wheras Ecclestone was bought originally to fit into a system with dynamic, passing and attacking football. So he's struggled to really shine in his time. But in the games he did play he's quite pacy and isn't shy of taking players on. If he has the potential that Ince had then wed have a gem on our hands as Bpool are letting him go at the end of the season, he just needs a run of games to exploit that form and potential.
