    No game is a given in this league, especially where we are concerned. However I will be travelling over to Crewe on Wednesday teatime full of optimism. I’ve been fortunate to watch the lads pull off some cracking away results this season, even where our own fans have written us off (Northampton, Stevenage, Mansfield) and I truly believe we’ll be bringing those 3 points back!

    Very impressive figures. I’ve managed 16/23 so I’m happy with that, unfortunately missed Harrogate due to ticket demand and others cos of holidays or other commitments. Making great memories with my lad along the way too

    100% agree. Absolute f*%king kretins. Get the hell out of the club you disgrace. Not supporters of the team or club.

    It’s an absolute disgrace!
    No way should a fixture be postponed because of U19 call ups.

    I see that City have put in a formal complaint about the cancellation. As they point out, late notice and in particular the hypocrisy in the dual standards as Crewe played Gillingham without the three players on Tuesday night. There needs to be some consistency in the EFL approach. Absolutely correct to put in a formal complaint. Still no alternative date announced!

    It's just not good enough. We can point to all the excuses we want, but we've been short all season. I don't see that changing over the next few weeks.

    Some nobhead will come on and say no pyro no party. We have a set of juvenile dickheads supporting the club and frankly until the club sort this nonsense out we are going to be crippled with fines with seriously trouble for us.

    Some of our fans are morons we were in the ascendance and they get the game stopped, well done lads without your input there was no way the referee would have added 10 minutes.

    Winners find ways. It's a mentality thing. Interesting that the general consensus on here is that the 10 mins injury time which ensued left us with the challenge of seeing out the game to secure playoffs, rather than be a chance to stay in the top 3 hunt.

    We're just not a promotion side. We're a bit short on everything that matters.

    Just back. Well that was a night that virtually mirrored City’s season.

    Playing with intent, then get suckered by their first goal. Stubbs caught for pace, but also a great strike.

    After that we lost impetus. Didn’t really bother/test their 18 year old keeper.

    Second goal again down our right, driven low cross and a steady finished.

    Half time.

    We regroup. Play with intent. Get the corner. Smallwood excellent drive in, Cookie with a Monster of a header.

    The ground is rocking.

    Crewe are on the ropes. Wave after wave attack. Walker drives it emphatically into the net. We are up to take them to the cleaners.

    Idiots down the far end set off more smoke bombs, looks like incursions onto the side of the pitch, police involved. Game halted.

    We lose our momentum. Game becomes bitty and Lewis has to pul off some decent saves, Crewe certainly haven’t given up.

    Disjointed as City become slightly desperate. Tangle of players. Couldn’t see what actually happens. Penalty given they score. Whistle goes within seconds. It is like that, if the game ends 30 seconds earlier, we would have had the draw!

    To add to the hurt, the bloody M56 was shut!

    I hope any fan who sees an idiot throwing flares on Saturday batters them, no place for them at any match, but next week of all weeks would be an absolute disgrace.

    Time to name and shame the idiots and ban them for life

    Whether Cook stays or goes we need to spread the goals around more next season that means mixing the play up more getting people in the box on the end of things.

    I remember Walsall away on a Saturday and Sheffield United at home on the Sunday and, until recently, Easter games were always scheduled for the Saturday and Monday (we were one of the earlier clubs to switch to Friday and Monday).
