    Reeves and Cooke should be more than good enough. Even Palmer. Crawley won the midfield battle today - do they have better players?

    I agree 100% I've been saying it for twelve months Bowyer maybe a good manager but he's no coach and neither is Drury.

    No hissy fit or knee jerk reaction from me.
    Crawley merely exposed what a poor and fragile team we are and have been all season, away from home.

    means nothing at all. We started so badly and couldn’t have any complaints if we were 3 or 4 down at half time. That’s only down to the manager I’m afraid. Takes changes to get the team back into the game. Not set up right.
    stuck up for him but it’s becoming a worrying sign we have to make changes all the time to get the side going.

    Shows the value of a 6'5 striker who scores 1 in 3 at this level, Absolutely bossed our defence and another tall lad at the back defending, We had nothing to compete with him and shows what you need as an option at this level at times

    We have NO midfielders worthy of the description, shocking effort from all involved throughout the team....

    We need a Gary Jones fighter at this level not the snowflake midfield players we seem to be full of,

    Massive reality check this for us. Performances have not been good enough and we've been lucky with some of the results. Won't even make the playoffs if we continue like this.

    More than double the amount of shots with only a third of possession!! To be honest it didn't sound like we had that much possession!

    A big man up top doesn't work were told, it certainly worked for Crawley today, our usual pairing of BRE and O;Connor have been very good most of the season unfortunately today they we completely bossed by the big lad Palmer, one Palmer does it all the other Palmer does FA.

    We need to somehow bring in a nasty Micky Kennedy type to strengthen an incredibly weak midfield to get us out of this league

    It's an old cliche but they wanted it more than us.

    Creatively we are a joke. Two strikers like Doyle and Vaughan and they don't get a sniff.

    I'm looking forward to it. Fully deserved their win today and have shown they are a team and are not reliant on one player. Good for them.
