That was the most boring load of crap we have played this season and we seem to be getting worse if we carry on like this we will be relegated. Where is the midfield Wright is useless like his brother all he ever does is pass the ball either sideways or back i don't think he has made an attacking pass since he's been here. Lets put Bulman in the middle he can be the general and the youngster's do the running for him. I could go on all night about how we lacked ideas but one final thing find someone else to take penalties they should be a given.

His attempt at an attacking pass is the same aimless ball to nobody that he tried at least 3 times tonight. Don’t think he even looks up before he hits it
Another dreadful penalty by Nichols again. What a big waste of a game again. What a lame defeat. Terrible game to watch, utterly boring. Glad I’m working Saturday perfect excuse to miss another game.
I think it was better than against Orient and Harrogate but thats probably because Stevenage weren't as good.
The basic problem is we have no one to pass it forward to. Nichols runs his socks off but he is not going to lead the line. Selling Watters was inevitable but not signing a replacement is looking like a mistake.
The new signings may come good but at the moment they are struggling in a struggling side and now the set up of the side looks wrong too.
From looking at the play offs we are now looking over our shoulder.
Belief seems to have drained pretty quickly since the sale of Watters. We lost not only our top striker but also the remaining players confidence and possible morale seeing a massively important part of our play off ambitions no longer available. Would maybe have been worth taking the chance to keep Watters until the end of the season at which point he may have made the difference of making a play off spot and at the same time increasing his value.
Previously our lack of pace in midfield was helped having an outlet up front. Now that Watters has gone we are struggling to build from midfield and are to easily closed down until we ultimately give the ball away after 1 or 2 passes. Or we are trying the long ball up to Nichols who although is good in the air for his size but is fighting a losing battle trying to hold the ball up.
The team look low in confidence not helped by baffling team selection and substitutions.
Also what is going on with the missing players? Seasay. Good player at our level and was improving. Hesketh, who IMO looked our most creative player for the few games he played. If he is still injured maybe let the supporters know. Bulman. Can still play a roll. Ashford? Docherty. Why loan him out. Young player who has improved over the time he has spent at the club.
Anyway it is what it is, but the lack of ambition and performance wont get the fans rushing back!!
www.crawleytownfc.com/news/2021/february/stevenage-reaction--lee-bradbury/ Yems post match analysis saying we didn't get battered, keep doing what we are doing, but " I thought we played well..." ok he wasn't in the dug out but was he there at all? Did I watch a different match? "It's a wonder the ref never gave someone a yellow card for turning up" - you have to smile, it's never boring and arguably the interview was more entertaining than the match!
Team selection has been an absolute mystery. Dallison left out was inexcusable. Bullman where is he? What will Greggo-Cox make of it all when he is fit to return? Jake Hesketh? what happenned there? Oh and what happenned to Dean Cox?

Cox left ages ago.... like when Kewell left. He was signed off due to personal issues then his contract was terminated?
