Decent half that against a good side.

Yep decent half and soaking up pressure very well. Concerned about the injuries though

Ironside and craig off at ht

Two more changes with Ironside and Craig replaced, this is going to be a test for the team now.

Jeez, not been able to listen but just seen we've taken 4 off.  What's happened?

Bit of an odd one this. We were late back out at half time and I don’t seem to think the subs (Olowu and Biamou) were warming up as if they intended to come straight on.

Crewe seem to be getting very physical with their challenges - desperation creeping in.

Thought Tommy looked off there

I’m not sure if the defender chasing moly, who crossed it kept him on. Tommy didn’t need to touch it, it should’ve been Joes goal

I hope Ironside is ok.

Time to give Biamou a run ? And there’s Col U next Tuesday.

Sound like Crewe can't get going at all.  Liking it.

They had a player who slid off the pitch who kept him onside, I think.

What happened to Ironside? What was his injury?

cracking win,  wrecked my PvO  :silly:,  but brilliant

That’s a great win. I hope the injuries aren’t serious.

Post by: PDX_Rover on March 09, 2024, 05:04:51 pm
Biamou has quality. He will be a great asset once he’s fully firing. Great win today. Solid from back to front. This is a Grant McCann team emerging at last.

Post by: Bollinger on March 09, 2024, 05:08:17 pm
Another good performance today.

A pity the run isn’t reflected in the position in the table due to those late draws that could have secured three points but I think recent games has answered those questions about whether McCann can imprint his ideas onto a team at this level.

Hope Ironside is OK. He has been immense and deserves to keep adding to his goal tally.

Brilliant performance all over today. They were a dirty team I thought but the ref eventually started blowing for more of their shenanigans. They lost their heads after our second goal you could see the tantrums. Amazing win and my favourite match of the season so far. So good to see hunger, desire, grit, determination, tenacity, fire in the belly. You name it we had it.

Great win for the lads.
Well done to those who had to replace the injured bunch.
Biamou (looks to have very neat and quick feet) and Hurst should have both scored to make things even better.
Special mention to Molly, thought he was MoM.

I think Joes shot would have gone wide.
