Only just realised that it’s a half 12 kick off after playing Arsenal away midweek. Very quick turnaround. Does that alter team selection for the cup game or do we go full strength? 
 

I think they probably all deserve a chance to go up against one of the country’s big boys but it can’t go costing us against Crawley. 
 

Heart says win, head says draw. 

Half time observation from the terrace.

A very unlike Bolton Evatt performance.

But I’m ok with it.

Giving up possession in the 2nd/3rd quarters, without them really troubling us in final quarter.

We look dangerous on the break.

Would like to see us keep the ball better.

Santos won everything that’s come his way.

This is what it must be like for opposition fans watching us at times, all the possession,  some nice passing but zero threat. We have had two or three chances which could have been goals but for decent blocks or saves 

Exactly. A good reminder of what it could be like. 
 

We lead, but it’s hardly pretty watching us boot it to victor and it bounce off him. 
 

Lucky we’ve got Charles to make something out of a long hoof.

 

 

Need to go up a gear second half. Losing the ball far too easily.

I'm expecting us to go on to get another couple in the second half and win 3-0

Solid half.

One of those games where Collins could cause havoc drifting around with his skill dragging their lot all over the gaff

So unlucky not to go in 2 up. Cracking saves from their goalie on that Dempsey shot

Should be at least 2

Could be 5

While its only one, it could very quickly turn to shit

They are having a bit too much of the ball for my liking. That ball to Dion in behind is causing them a lot of problems. We need to play that ball more.

I'm not sure if there's much to learn given the difference in quality of opposition

Regardless goals 1 and 3, a reminder to concentrate 

Much better that’s all we ask for👏

I like the direct passes for Charles to get on to 

Deserves a goal for his efforts so far

Entertaining half that.

Impressed by Crawley - they've outplayed us for large portions, but we could be 4 up by now.

We get the next goal, should be comfortable.

Does this comm know crawleys manager has left?

Great interception there from Santos. Hope Schon can get one thing right today, just isn't working for him at the moment.

It unfortunately hasn’t for him the whole season. LWB is a problem position again unfortunately. Hopefully Randy can stay fit and slot in. 

Niggley fouls every few seconds like non league football 

This referee is a fucking kunt

Seems ref only interested in booking our players.

Commentator is pretty shite, anyone know who she is? 

No shortage of work rate, bottle and commitment. No sign of quality this half though.

It feels like we're due a change

How is that not a yellow, kicked DC after the whistle

This game showing our obsession with possession can be overrated at times. We can be a decent counter attacking side at times if we can show the discipline and determination when we're without the ball. Wednesday was a good learning exercise in that regard. 

Terrible contest to watch but if we take away a win and a clean sheet from such a game it's a bit of progress

Terrible Ref, Surprisingly for League one 🤣🤣🤪  

What a goal!!!!!!!!!
