    On this… did the ref blow immediately and before the ball hit the back of the net as I thought it was odd the goal wasn’t just given.

    The last thing we should do is rest players. We need a result to secure the playoffs, and we're playing the champions.

    Yes that is true, but the game had sort of stopped, with defenders out of position.

    I called this today at work when asked.,. lose to Crewe ... wouldn't be surprised if we beat The Orient .... wouldn't suprise if we get get thumped by Orient .....this team hasn't the mentality to get/win the play offs.
    You don't know which City will turn up

    I think they have it’s about what’s drilled into them. We came out second half and battered them until we equalised and straight away foot of the gas

    Im not making excuses, but foot of gas or loss of momentum due to the pause caused by the Pyro? For me the latter.

    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.

    And that's a huge issue if we get the playoffs.

    Nothing to do with the Crewe manager revving his side up during the stoppage then
    Hughes should have been doing the same

    We are a set of pricks. We are also supported by some utter pricks.

    its frustrating its come down to the final day but hand on heart we know hughes’ negativity has cost us auto promotion and if we miss out, the failure is on him.

    I never said you said he was a proven good player. You said he was the answer to our left sided issue TONIGHT!
    Bloody hell Park, he’s poor, be honest!

    He has to recall Clayton on Monday. We haven't looked solid since he's been out. From here on in it is not about going all out for the win, but making sure we get the point we need. After that, Hughes will set up to nick wins just as he has done for the majority of the season. This team are incapable of going all out, but very capable of pinching a goal. I'm also not sure what's happened to the defence. Is Platt an even bigger miss than we thought? He's probably another I'd recall on the back of the last few games.

    If he goes for the draw on Monday we will get beat not good enough to hold teams out for 90 plus mins
    Playing possession football in the opposition half is the way to do that not ours !!!
    Agree Clayton in for Smallwood
