Thanks for putting that in an order that will resemble the formation, my old brain gets frazzled from time to time trying to work out the line up when its in squad number order!
-
Looking forward to this. Feeling optimistic!!

I took it direct from BBC, so they did the work :lol: :scarf:
-
15 minutes gone…how we doing?
-
Lucky that Tracey is a greedy f**ker!
-
Billy offside as he nets a rebound from Gibson freekick against bar (was great save from keeper)
-
1-0!!!
-
Oooooh. Good game, this.
-
Maybe not bet365 changed their mind.
-
1-0!!!
Offside sadly
-
Beginning to get on top a bit
-
Would like to see us attack a bit quicker. If we can up the tempo we can cut througj thewe
-
HT 0-0
They started better but we finished the half better
-

I’ll settle for that!…so far! :)
-
Not sure Billy was offside!
-
Seen nothing special from Crewe we have had it all our way apart from the first 5mins when they got a quick couple of corners. LM is very quiet maybe more down to him having 2 on him most of the time, ref done well, hope I’m not speaking to soon on that one.
Hope in the 2nd half with the sun in Crewe keepers eye we can get some more shots off
-
I think Crewe look very bell organised and decent on the ball.
Ref missed a couple of obvious yellows.
Unlucky with the free kick - great save.
Open game could go either way I think.
-
West Stand lino doesn't know what offside is.
-
Rovers on the right side not prepared to try taking the ball past the opponent. Commentator says "forced back" each time we get possession with space to run into but instead turn and pass back.

sun?

Seen a few replays on Rovers+ and Billy seemed go early as the free kick was struck. Did look offside tbf.

Looked off to me. Really frustrates me when a player is caught offside at a set piece, it’s not hard to stay on unlike when you’re waiting for a pass.
-
That looked like a penalty no?
-
Clear penalty on first viewing. Shame there's no reply feature on this new system.
-
I thought so too
-
Bloody hell!!!
-
0-1
Ball given away by Fleming, but outstanding run by Crewe player
-
Bugger
-
What the hell was mgrath doing there sliding like that
-
Absolute shocker from McGrath. f**king Crewe.
-
Well that was awful
-
We need to go for it now. Far too reserved and slow
-
0-1
Ball given away by Fleming, but outstanding run by Crewe player
3 touches by a rovers player after fleming.
-
Awful from quite a few of our lot there. We've been poor 2nd half.
-
What was Jay doing. It's been far too slow all game. Systematic of a large proportion of games
-
Rancid goal to concede that. Starting with Flemings awful in field ball and ending with McGrath sitting on his arse far too easily.
-
0-1
Ball given away by Fleming, but outstanding run by Crewe player
3 touches by a rovers player after fleming.
All with very difficult balls because of initial unnecessary long crossfield pass at back
-
Need to really step it up
-
Going for it now
-
Sterry & Fleming off for Ironside and Sbarra
-
Lots of safe passes being played. Very poor so far.
-
Charrrrrrrrge

Yes blame starts with that crossfield ball but i just stated it wasnt him who gave it away initially. After that it was a collection of s**t.
I think it was molly who headed back to the crewe player
-
I make that 4 penalties not given in our last 2 home games with Crewe
They must think they can do what they want
-
This is all very flat. Flat performance and flat atmosphere
-
It’s dull and frustrating. We don’t seem to do anything at pace
-
Get in! What a counter!
-
Beautiful goal Hursty
-
Goallllllll!!!!!!
-
I immediately take that back!!
-
Get in now get that 2nd
-
I immediately take that back!!
No! Say it again in 5 mins time!!
-
Great ball from Sbarra, great ball from Mols, cool finish from Hurst.
He needed that goal.
-

The Lucky Downer lol
-
Great break all round,and inspired changes
-
Well well well, attack at pace and look what happens.
-
More like it now
-
Hurst took that well, great counter
-
Hurst missed a good chance after pinball
-
Fresh legs and change of formation have given us more urgency.
-
Hows billy missed 4yrds out???
-
Chance for Billy, more difficult than it looked as keeper missed a cross
-
Is Sharp losing his touch? Another open goal missed.
-
Hows billy missed 4yrds out???
No-one expected the cross to get past the keeper, he had no time to adjust
-
Definitely on top.
-
Definitely on top.
And about time!…just saying!

That’s what she said….
-
4 extra minutes
-
Close (not Ben) from a couple of corners
-
Why oh why do we start to play after going behind we could have been out of sight in the first half
-
Notts County not winning, Gillingham and Barrow at the moment the same.

Change of shape and personnel changed the match
FT 1-1
-
1-1. Should have won that one on the balance of play. A point is ok given other results. Much better second half.
-
Think 3 at the back is the way to go we looked so much more in control
-
Much better last 20 odd minutes
-
We’re actually up to 2nd as it stands
-
Probably should of won that in the end. The 2 chances for hurst which was blazed over and sharps from 4yds out which headed over.
-
Hows billy missed 4yrds out???
Cant have that. Billy was shaping up for the header before the keeper missed it. 4yds out and he headed it over. It probably would of gone in if he just stood there and it bounced off him.

Maybe. Perhaps I am being a little generous.

Decent game. Crewe defended exceptionally well and had us completely worked out, forcing us to play a lot of sideways and backwards passing, rather than those cutting one twos of last week. They were slick with the ball and got what they came for a breakaway goal, and a good one. Couldn’t see us scoring at all.
Then we did a Crewe on Crewe with a breakaway with fast smart passes and a good finish.
The changes then seemed to upset Crewe’s rigid plan, and in the end we should have won it.
-
Much better after they scored should really have won it
-
Billy offside as he nets a rebound from Gibson freekick against bar (was great save from keeper)
Didn’t realise the keeper got a touch to it, if he did Billy can’t be offside

Just watched it. I would be pretty sure the keeper got a hand and pushed it onto the bar

Grant in his interview says keeper got a nick on the cross, so Billy indeed didn't have time to adjust

In real time from the south stand I thought the keeper touched the ball onto the bar.
Billy was definitely in an offside position when Gibson struck the free kick but with all the rule changes I don’t know whether the touch by the keeper makes him offside afterwards.
The missed header by Billy just before the end looks to me like the keeper got the faintest of touches but just enough to put Billy off.
Hurst really ought to have scored that chance he put over the bar.
A really good game though and I enjoyed it.
Crewe are a good side and well organised and I expect them to be up there with us at the end of the season.
We were the better side in the first half and I had it evens after the break.
The ref was pretty good to which helped my enjoyment of the game.
-
I thought that was a decent game. A little bit more accuracy when we were finishing strongly and it would be a great 3 points. Crewe looked organised and disciplined, but they didn’t threaten too much did they.?
A draw is always a decent result when coming from behind..
Not sure about the sponsors MotM.? I thought or CB pair did very well, the only weakness in our defence coming when they scored..
