Some poor defending for the Crewe goal, Ennis unlucky hitting the post late on.

Well they weren't very biased highlights were they?

For their goal, the number four who heads backs across goal looked to be offside when the first ball is played to him from the free kick.

Grant says definitely offside. It probably was offside. Wouldn’t put your life on it from that camera angle.

From that still, number fours head appears to be in advance of any defenders body parts.

You’d say so but impossible to say for absolute certain. Bailey (I think it is) in the middle for us looks fairly deep.

It’s offside, look at the 18 yard line

I think he probably is but I’ve seen enough VAR stills to know that players leaning and looking from bad angles can be deceptive. Thought the challenge on Sbarra was a certain penalty though.

Can’t blame referees for not getting promoted though can we.

 Were they match highlights or Crewe highlights?

Great control on the header from Bailey.

He also kept his eye on the ball from the moment it left LM’s boot, unlike the defender who was only interested in blocking his run.

Frustratingly, we see that so many times from our own players as well as opponents.
