Am sat at home, somewhat bemused but amazingly dry.
Some good stuff there tonight, think Houghton, Broom and Camara are a classy midfield, but their number 37 still emerged as a main danger man.
Coops made several good saves and his overall game has come on so much from last year, but I still can’t make up my mind if he should have saved their goal or if he was totally flukes by their cross/shot.
I thought our defence remained solid, other than Coops excellent saves I don’t think we looked troubled.
Ryan Hardie scored again and had a couple of other chances, he and Jephers do work well together and I don’t care which of them scores.
Turning to Crewe, apart from the immensely frustrating time wasting we see all the time these days, I thought they actually played some decent possession football. They were comfortable on the ball, their passing and movement better than their league position would have suggested. They didn’t just sit back and park the bus having gone 1-0 up, but they played a good away performance - which is where we still struggle to overcome.
Overall, a point salvaged but we had enough chances to win it, and some refs might have given us at least one of the penalty shouts. Come Saturday it will be 5 games in 15 days and some of those guys will have played most if not every minute. Think it showed a little bit tonight
