Crawley!

Conspiracy theories apart, you've got to feel sympathy for Jordan Clark.
He was clearly devastated by his o.g. & literally bust a gut in the 2nd half trying to make up for it.
Most of our best goal efforts came from the right wing, largely due to Jordan's speed, skill & 101% work rate.
On a more optimistic note, if we win our game-in-hand, we'll be back up to 3rd spot.
If? If? If?
 
We where undo by good counter attacking and pace. Pace which Rawson and Hughes don't have. In January a position we could really do with improving is central midfield, over recent weeks I feel we have been losing out in this area (if there is a Matt crooks, amine linganzi we could afford) or could Liam Nolan come back in and fill the void? I would also like to see competition to kayden, I keep hoping things are going to click again but am getting concerned. On a more positive note, Chapman has stepped to command the goal keeper role and is vastly improved on early season.

Thornily out for a few weeks he will be back to Sheffield shortly.
Wilks back to Leeds
Rawson not good enough.
Conneely not looking good might be another few weeks out.
Johnson ?
A big season defining January ahead.
Over to you Coley because today for the first time I blame you - crap tactics crap formation and crap selection of players in wrong positions.

To me Coley made a huge mistake having 8 loan players when you can only play 5 hopefully he will correct this by bringing in plenty of new faces in January.

We all make mistakes but I don't think having 8 rather than 5 loan players should be described as "huge".
I thought there was some rule change that meant many clubs had to 'over-load' (if that's how you want to term it) with loanees as, if 3 of the 5 got injured, they couldn't be replaced.
But if having too many loanees is a problem, bringing in more new faces may not solve it. There are some squad players who haven't really had a crack of the whip, or who picked up injuries when they got their limited chance to show what they can do.
 
first half we looked tike relagation fodder, second half looked like promotion candidates. what was the difference, a more balanced side. funny how when we were doing well nolan was in the side now he,s not well we know whats happened.
 
Chevyfire - yup, a good midfielder would be a big boost - no doubt about it. If not, then we need to play better as a team like we did in the second half. I thought Brown (as an example) looked far, far more effective second half as one cog in the machine. First half his limited skills meant nowt happened for us. Wide men never brought into the game, Jackson had nowt to run into etc.
 
Think the big difference in the 2nd half was restoring Richards-Everton at the back.
He allowed the Don to feed Clark on the right & for the first time we started to cause Crawley real problems.
Our attacks down the flanks has always been our greatest threat.
Agree 100% with Chevyfire. Chapman has gone from zero to hero this season
 
anyone who attended the match like to give me there thoughts on Crawley as a team?
how they rack against other teams we have faced this season?
