Barnsley FA Cup (H) - Loss. Narrow defeat. We are flying but they are massively improved under their new manager. Suspect we'll come up ever so slightly short, but we'll give it a good go and give them a game. Swindon (A) - Loss. My confidence depends on getting Pickering and Nolan back in...

Slightly disappointed they once again switched off and failed to keep yet another clean sheet, but that first half was so good, I can't get too annoyed. Don't blame them too much for looking ahead to Barnsley either. Comfy 3 points. Roll on the FA Cup 3rd Round, been a while since I could say that.

Carlisle's tactics have been so badly thought out. Beech clearly sent them out with an uber aggressive attitude and it's backfired badly. Giving away silly fouls, not pressing as a team, we've just picked holes all over the pitch. We've been brilliant, but Carlisle have been abject. The goals...

Carlisle at home, no excuses for not winning. Yes, they had a good result last time out, but that was over 10 man Walsall. I expect we'll go with the same team has we had against Scunny. Should be enough to get the job done. Hopeful for another multi goal win, but I'll take whatever win we can get.

Given how important he is and how he's played this season, I'd want nothing short of Westwood money for him. A low 7 figure sum for sure, they could afford it easily.

I didn't think you did that bad today. Yes, there were issues in both boxes, but you knocked it around well, pressed, were pretty organised. Clear your treatment room and you should be able to get a comfy mid-table finish and build for next season. As for us, I didn't think we played all that...

FFS. Artell has gone into overthink mode. He's dropped Mbulu, who admittedly did have a stinker on Thursday, from defence and moved our best player in CM Ryan Wintle back there. Stupid, stupid, stupid. If this doesn't backfire, I'll be surprised.

Tough list, there were so many amazing games I'll remember till the day I die. I could name 5 games from our 11-12 promotion season alone. Suppose my five would have to be: Chesterfield 5-5 Crewe, 2nd October 2010 We were doing nothing in mid-table, they were flying at the top and hadn't...

Given the comments coming out of the Scunny lot, I'm optimistic we can bounce back. Could do with a win after the shit show on Boxing Day. I'll take any win I can get, although a point wouldn't be a disaster as long as we follow it up with a win against Carlisle.

I've seen a few of these knocking around. So go on then, who makes your own team's team of the decade? No rules, can be anyone, including loanees. Any formation you like. Interested to see some lists for sure. Crewe's(4-3-3): Steve Phillips(GK) - Played at the highest level of all keepers we...

Dreadful today, from the players and manager. The manager decides to hook one of the 2 fit CBs we have and move our best player in Ryan Wintle into defence as a replacement. Crazy choice. Then he decides to bring on the dire James Jones, who's not been consistently good for 2 1/2 years. What...

Well that was shite. First goal was a decent hit, can't do a lot about those. 2nd though, Mbulu gets rolled by a guy who's a good 2-3 inches smaller than him. After that, we've struggled to string anything together on a wet pitch. Couple of half chances, nothing more. Salford are cruising and...

Given what I saw back in September, there is no reason not to be winning this. They can be a tricky side, but they are very limited and have few quality players. They were organised and worked hard in the first half, but it still needed a calamity error from Jaaskelainen to help them score. I...

What I find shocking about the Grimsby situation is Hanson. I mean, yes I've heard of the manager of the month curse, but the player? Yes, he never was the kind of scorer that gets 5 in his first 6. But he's a 10-15 goal player at this level still surely? How has he not had one good cross or...

That was ridiculously easy. I can't decide who are worse, Morecambe or Stevenage. It was like playing a Conference North team at times. Carved them open with incredible ease, should have been 2 up before we eventually did score. Goals one and two were the exact same. Quick ball to Kirk in acres...

Strange game. Been like a training match at times, creating chances with ridiculous ease and finally taking 2 goals. That really should be enough, no reason to blow it from here. Get that 3rd goal to really kill it off and rest up for Boxing Day.

I'm almost certain we'll lose Ryan Wintle, the guy is playing way above the level he's playing at right now. Be shocked if we don't get a fair offer for him. I can see Kirk also going, his all round performances won't wow, but he turns up on the stats sheet often enough to entice a few L1...

Overstated how? If you don't have a top 5 budget alongside Plymouth, Bradford and Swindon, I'd be shocked. You signed Cook and paid him hansomely. You beat off probably a few interested suitors to get Maynard. You've paid fees for 3 of your squad. The wages you pay to Maynard, Mellis, Bishop...

I can see Tua dropping due to his injuries. I make 7 teams needing to draft or sign a new QB for next season. Bengals, Chargers, Dolphins, maybe Broncos if they don't fancy Lock, Colts, Bucs and Panthers. When you have 4 legit first round QBs, plus some solid veterans hitting free agency, I can...

The guy is still trading on the form he showed 2 years ago, he's been mostly poor for 18 months now. I don't know whether its lost development from not playing, his attitude or that his body might be shot, but his play is uninspiring and dangerous at times. He lost the ball deep in our 2-3...
