    Yes, I went for the first time for a number of years after the last home match against Colchester and thoroughly enjoyed it.

    Not sure if this is been mentioned, but Chris Long plays for Crewe who got in Hughes’s face after we lost there last season. Would be nice to see him on the end of a crunching tackle today.

    I am worried about putting anything like a crunching tackle on players, please remember the Drysdale factor!

    So what are we hoping for today for progress? Formation, exciting football, goals at the expense of defence or simply a win? What drudgery will Hughes serve up to day for the baying crowd?

    Expecting another poor performance and 0-2 down at half time - other than that perfect

    3 hours to kick off and I can't say that the juices are exactly flowing.
    Please God a change in formation/tactics but like most I'm not confident.
    Cannot handle many more poor shows.

    I want to feel as though it’s worth the effort of attending. I want to be entertained. I want to see attacking play with a goal threat.
    I don’t want a boring 1-0 win but that’s just me.

    Can't believe Crewe are 17/4.

    Yes at full time, gloating to Hughes about an inch from his face.

    Blimey I am not feeling that excited today. Hopefully the lads will sort that out by full time.

    Starts with 3 at the back. Goes 2 nil down at half time with a dreadful pertormance. Goes back to a back four second half. As we lose he declares where did that performance come from ? while avoiding mirrors

    I'm in Wroclaw for the Usyk v Dubois fight but will be watching as always. Crewe are no mugs and I think we'll take a point. If we can beat them and Cook scores, happy days again

    You'll love it. I've been three times previously and it's one of my favourite cities. You won't be short of bars to visit and there are many decent restaurants. I always advise people to visit bars and restaurants away from then rynek area (centre) as they are usually high prices for tourists

    Jesus, that bench is weak as piss. No Odour, gilly still out of the squad. Good to see Smallwood dropped, and walker back atleast. Just hope he’s on form.

    Is Oduor missing because he's told Hughes he doesn't know what he's doing?
