Still had enough chances to have won the game. Not our day today.After we played MK dons I can recall similar comments from you saying mK dons will surprise everyone this year and will be up there. But theyre down at the bottom struggling. I just think we need to find a way of beating the sides which were expected to beat, we can’t break teams downThey are Dickos and all the teams have played only 7/8 games this season. I actually said MK Dons would finish mid table and if you check your facts and see my League prediction you would see that. Never did I predict MK Dons would be any way near the play offs.

Taylor, John-Jules, Tulloch and Richards all not playing today. All could have expected to start and play (I know Taylor started but went off after a few minutes).
Not sure what happened to Richards. Not even on the bench. Moore does I think prefer John-Jules as the central striker and while Fejiri did a good job at hold up play, his finishing was suspect.
Quote from: BillyStubbsTears on October 24, 2020, 05:35:11 pmCrewe played an excellent press on us and I'm afraid we weren't good enough to counter it. No real complaints but we do need to show we are able to overcome that sort of press. It does leave gaps behind if you are sharp and slick enough to offload the ball to a colleague as the press comes in. Today we just weren't. Not often enough anyway. All that said, there was a stonewall handball penalty for us near the end. I don't like carping on about refs but I'll make an exception here. Today's was awful from start to finish. He never once pulled them up for manhandling players and that set the tone from the off. There was one handball that was an absolute disgrace, even though it was irrelevant as the ref had blown for a foul on their keeper by Wright. The ball got fired against the defender who looked like he handballed it at stomach height, then the cheating bas**rd went down clutching his head.

You do realise don't you that those results had already happened and were public knowledge? Knowing what has taken place in the past is not some kind of mystical power that can dictate the events of the future. That we lost today had nothing to do with someone looking down a list of past results.

It wasn't irrelevant because the Wright foul on the keeper came AFTER the handball.

They have won a single game in ten away, including while playing in an inferior league. If anyone thinks winning 10pc of their away games is anything other than dreadful, they need urgently to stop smoking crack.

Eighty per cent of games you’re including were played over 7 months ago, in a different season and a different league. If you think that has any bearing on their away form now I think it’s probably you who needs to put the pipe down. That’s before you even start to consider how much having empty stadiums has levelled the playing field and meant away wins are significantly more likely.

I actually said MK Dons would finish mid table and if you check your facts and see my League prediction you would see that. Never did I predict MK Dons would be any way near the play offs.I think your exact words were MK dons will easily finish in the top half this season. They were much better than you expected and we will play sides much worse than them this season. My point is we seem to make the lesser teams look good, Wigan, MK dons, Oldham, Crewe it’s a common theme
The game today was all about the finishing for me (or lack of). Fejiri should have had 2 goals for sure.My concern though was how we lacked ideas when behind at 2-1 and didn't seem to be able to try something different. Part of that was the limited options available.Still unsure on the keeper too, he's not really shown me anything of note yet this season. I'm not sure marosi or dieng concede that free kick for example.Key is how we bounce back though games like today will happen but they are the difference between promotion, play offs and mid table. For me we have lost two games we should have won and did enough to win.
Bursik does have good distribution. Some of his longer balls out from the back were much better than both Anderson and Wright. Not convincing for the free kick.
