    How many had a late night last night? Seems like not many of the players have a clue so far.

    Kelly isn't good enough to be a regular starter.

    Oduor needs to get more of the ball.

    Stop hoofing it up the pitch and play a bit shorter to Smallwood, Gilliead and Oduor where there's space.

    Kelly, Platt, Ridehalgh, Odour need replacing from this team. The lack of quality is showing badly

    The 2 Crewe commentators make AK seem like John Motson.

    I can't see us scoring mate. We've created very little aside from a fairly tame shot from Gilliead and Oduor's shot just then.

    I think the plan to score is to get it forward quick and hopefully pick up a scrappy second ball. It won't always work.

    Having said that, good cross there from Smallwood.

    That was a great ball from Smallwood. Shame no one really attacked it.

    We'll score but I worry about is defensively. Next goal wins this.

    I had thought Smith and Cook were starting to gel with each other but today they seem to have made the same runs into the same spaces.

    I think Smith needs a bit of coaching to get him into the right spaces.

    It feels like Cook is making the wide runs that Smith should be doing.

    First half takeaway

    They want it scrappy and reliant on errors . We fulfilled their hopes .

    We need it on the deck

    Cook pulled down there
