Two incredibly poor sides at Holker Street today. Both keepers barely tested yet we conceded a scrappy goal and then decided to pass the ball sideways and backwards and hoof it diagonally for the rest of the game.
Lankester and Hemmings were terrible. The entire midfield a disgrace that barely...
Very winnable game for us tomorrow to get us up and running. I'll be disappointed if we drop points to a side I think will be towards the bottom this season now that the Pete Wild era has come to an end. Just hope Marschall doesn't drop a bollock.
Not too sure how we'll line up given the...
Let's see if I can go one better than last years 2nd place!

8. Port Vale
9. Walsall

11. AFC Wimbledon
12. Bradford
13. Carlisle
14. Bromley

Proper lazy signing from us. We love revisiting old targets and we've had tabs on him for 2 years I believe. I wonder if we even watched videos of his games for you last season.
I had the benefit of having a good mate who supports MK slagging him off in our group chat weekly and I've seen all...
Crewe's obsession with signing appalling keepers who prioritise playing it out the back over saving actual shots continues with the due to be confirmed signing of Filip Marschall.
Looked absolutely hideous at MK last season so God knows why we've thought it was a great idea to sign him.
Would...
Think if it materialises he'll definitely be signed as a CB primarily to enable us to play 3-5-2 when necessary and because we're short of bodies there and Williams is injury prone.
May also be good in a 4 alongside Demetriou who is a strong covering defender which could bail out Wright if he...
More a case of meeting in the middle with them as believe we offered them a fee initially which wasn't exactly derisory. I believe after seeing we got money for Adebisi they've moved the goalposts a bit. But I expect it to be resolved.
Crewe recruitment bingo has been interesting so far.
Signed a player who once scored a hat trick past us for the second straight season. (Hemmings)
Signed an injury prone midfielder who has played very little football for his age. (Sanders)
Signed a Cambridge player with questionable end...
In all honesty I can't see Adebisi going to Orient as you'll have to pay a 6 figure compensation fee for his services and, given he's been with us for years, the compensation fee I reckon we would command would be just in excess of your club record transfer fee paid.
Kane Hemmings should finally be announced today all being well.
Looks like Ethan Robson will be next week though for reasons which I do not know nor understand.
The interesting thing with Rowe is he's been around a fair while longer than most people actually realise. It's starting to get to the stage where if it doesn't happen for him in this spell with Gillingham then it probably won't ever happen for him.
I wish him well too as he's a good lad. But I...
I think he's poor as well. Poor to the point where Ainley probably had more end product than him.
13 yellow cards is a real lack of discipline at this level. I think a lot of fans let that Derby performance go to their heads.
Really didn't want him back and delighted we're not getting him...
Wouldn't be a Crewe transfer window without signing a permanent crock.
Hope we avoid like the plague when Long will already spend 30 games on the sidelines.
Got a goal every 3 games in our worst side for 40 years in the league above.
That said, I'm not happy we've kept him. Waste of a wage because his fitness is so unreliable.
That smacks of Barrow cutting their cloth next season after investing pretty heavily for their standards last year. Wasnt Wild on a 4 or 5 year contract too?
I'd simply turn up all season rather than turn up for it then shit the bed for the remaining quarter like he's done 3 years on the spin...
