Didledee Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 Can't be fun being a Crewe player, bottom of league, losing every week and having to play on that pitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had to buy tickets for that one and only season ticket holders stood a chance. We only had 2,000 tickets and there was another 1,000 of us in the home end. I reckon we'd have had 5-6000 there that day had it been pay on the day with the right capacity. I think the away end capacity had been reduced because the grass bank had to be fenced off. I take your wider point though. Better memory than me! That would make sense, because in hindsight I do recall the usual huge grass bank on the away end was shut off and we were restricted to the terrace bit at the front (that video of Kelly's goal shows we are all at the front end). A bit of a novelty for those days to have to buy tickets in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't a dig at either keeper but I'm struggling to think of one "wow" save that Dixon or Trafford have made this season. That's one reason I can't make my mind up on Trafford, I'm waiting for one of those moments when we're all on our feet applauding. And that's not to ignore some decent saves like the Morecambe pen and a couple of others, just no worldies like the Richards one yesterday.

Tomski, same applies to Trafford. Maybe he’s set to become the new scapegoat some our “supporters “ love to latch onto early just in case in a year or two, if they fuck up, they can quote themselves to say, “Told you he was shit!” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If our defenders could cut out the brainfarts that lead to goals we'd be comfortably in the play offs. Brilliant for 99% of a game but there's always one complete cock up and when that costs us a goal and are then stuck trying to get through all 11 opposition behind the ball. Thats when we've dropped the bulk of our points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been impressed with his 1 on 1 stuff and in particular how easy he makes it look when stopping and hanging onto, low shots. He's pretty strong on crosses and good with clearances and back passes too. With regular football he's going to be very very good by the time he's in his prime as a keeper 30+ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted March 21, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted March 21, 2022 Baka looks so different with a deeper layer of hair- a lot younger. I also think he may have lost a bit of weight- perhaps this is all part of him getting into better shape following his injuries as Evatt explained.

I really don’t see a player and compare him, almost admiringly, with the way he’d previously looked. Do you have a man-crush? 🥰🥰🥰 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
