Crewe are such a weird side. Bookies had them to finish near the bottom, scored a ridiculous amount of last minute goals, scored 2 goals in their last 8 games looking dreadful and now they're going to Wembley. :eyes:

Starting to get annoying now. Complete nonsense.
To some extent a good barometer. Bristol Rovers have excellent support and did all season when they were in the conference yet in this example, isn't there a 50 minute train from Bristol to London (they have it good down South). Bit different for say Carlisle in the L2 play off final last year.
I suppose finishing as the highest placed team in the play offs always adds some pressure and maybe expectancy (from outside).
I don't think at the start of the season Crewe, definitely Crawley or Doncaster as recently as March expected to be top 7 so potentially seen more as an added bonus/...
Not just form though, they have lots of injuries and really, and I think its fair to say, they just aren't very good.
Crawley have no pressure really do they and have never lost (played) in the play offs before so in a way I kind of fancy them.
I do believe that there is a mindset even when...
I take your point but we've only been on Sky once this year, Mansfield have been on at least 3 times.
BBC are much worse for it but again that is exaggerated by the fact that we have S4C, the Welsh channel, who only have 4 to choose from.
Watched the Moors game. Nobody there, truly pathetic for a play off game.
Solihull v Alty in the final could break the all time record for the lowest ever final maybe?
