Official Match Thread Crewe Alexandra vs Southend United

[Supershrimper]

Some kind of magic from Granty is definitely due!

Grant for me hasn't done anything of note since January. Not sure if he is upset at still being at Southend or not. Needs to get back to the player at the beginning of the season.

Soares for Ferdinand why? we need new faces but I think it is now too late play offs look out of question but not complaining league safety is an achievement!

 

[Billy Bests boot laces]

Team badly needs freshening up with some new players. Of course that wont happen but it needs to.

Theres always next season?.

 

[Worcester Shrimper64]

were not safe yet??

 

[yogi bear up the cagire]

Roll-on next season!

 

[wiggy]

were not safe yet??

Rons now got his wish, mid table. Could have so easily bin top 6 but not interested. Don't think i'll be interested when he wants 300 quid x 4 for seasons!

 

[Shrimper]

Come on boys, not over yet!

 

[bazzashrimper]

Lets hope for some stability in the summer and some time for Sturrock to rebuild. We have a core of a decent squad - 7 or 8 decent players, but we just need to replace some of the bits around the edges

People need to stop moaning about the play offs, we're not ready to go up and we aren't good enough to go up, as long we don't somehow lose every game and drop to 23rd I'm happy with the season

 

[Onion_Bag_Dave]

Corner! Come on lads!

It's another season in this god awful division though.

...easily pleased!

 

[yogi bear up the cagire]

Sadly......rather a big yawn........pottering around doing other things whilst i listened to us slide to defeat.........FT 1-0

 

[Onion_Bag_Dave]

Still not over yet chaps!

 

[Ayrshire Blue]

Balls. There goes any slim play off hopes.

 

[Billy Bests boot laces]

At least we've got over the habit of conceding 2 goals, as we have done in recent games.

 

[Onion_Bag_Dave]

Do you know what?

If the players give up like all of you lot are then we wouldn't be very happy would we?

There's no pressure really now. Why can't we go on a 6 game running streak?

 

[chapperzUK]

I thought the play-offs were dead after the Lincoln game to be honest, and reckon they are now. 7 off 7th and they have a game in hand.

 

[Worcester Shrimper64]

because were not good enough

 

[Billy Bests boot laces]

Balls. There goes any slim play off hopes.

I admire your optimism that we still had any, bearing in mind the strength of our squad, and our inability to keep a clean sheet since god knows when.
