    Going back to City we’ve won just 3 games at home out of 9 with this 1 up front formation. One of those was a fluke against Walsall, we have to change the system at home as it’s no different to Adams last season but Hughes gets a free ride because he’s a nice bloke.

    I had thought that Crawley might have been in a bit of a false position prior to the match and a good group of players recovering from a manager who wasn't up to scratch but with the possible exception of Hartlepool, they were the worst team I've seen all season which makes our poor performance even worse because it was entirely self inflicted.

    True but with 3 points for a win a succession of home draws is no use. Last 4 home games we have gathered just 3 points.

    Don’t care if I get slagged off but that squad is good enough to get us up but that clown at the helm isn’t ........... that goal was a huge error on out part but time after time it’s been coming ....... he thinks we are bastard Man City with this passing out of the back shit we simply ain’t good enough and until Hughes gets with reality then sadly we ain’t going nowhere.......... Crawley easily the poorest side to roll up here and we struggle yet again

    Beating Liverpool is probably easier than beating Crawley these days

    I didn't see it because it didn't happen you had too many beers in the New Bee Hive before the game.

    Promotion teams are usually built on a strong home record at the moment we look a better side on our travels.

    The possession based football is often played on a knife edge. There were many times when i was dreading that interception and subsequent goal.

    Even when we play it around with some confidence, we then lack the ability to change the languid pace into something which will open up the opposition.

    Far too pedestrian. Lack of pace. Lack of precision. Sometimes a lack of passion.

    Yes at the end of the day it doesn't matter how or were we get the points, but if we perform at home the potd will come to watch, another very good attendance to say we threw 2 points away Tuesday night and it wasn't the best weather to attend the game.
