Missed this as I was at a wedding. Doesn’t sound great.

This is a difficult one. Normally I would have said that I'll vote for noone and none of the players really stood out.

The votes for RHM are 'slightly' baffling. He was trying, bustling and run quite a bit. But, he was caught in possession and he just couldn't control the ball. The goal came from a strong run from midfield (as neither team thought it a good idea to tackle there) and a deflected shot.

Lavinier looked good in parts. Flicks and tricks, the odd run and spraying the ball cross field. But, at others he looked lethargic and didn't seem to be able to find anyone else on the left to help make t hings happen.

So, I think, on balance I'd go for Cain. Probably his best game thus far - Although he has had a couple of nice cameos off the bench. On this performance, he looked a neat player when given time on the ball. But, I fear that this won't be a regular occurence.

Fell to pieces when we inexplicably bought Cain off. So I voted for him.

Cain easily for me, fell apart after he went off.

Cain has been improved recently which bodes will hopefully. He's tidy and seems to read the game well enough and a cracking free kick deserved  goal.

nah that was Clayton. As was the missed follow up.

I know this because the Crewe commentators told me

That commentator had worked for radio Stoke or whatever for 35 years. Surely the very minimum requirement for a commentator is to at least look at the opposition side pre game? He hadn't a clue how to pronounce Mceachran or Lavinier. Amateur hour.

Frankly the club should pay Andrew Hawes. If we had to suffer the shite football AND shite commentary it would be too much to bear.
We are extremely lucky to have him.

Hawes is consistently brilliant.

Spot on Hawes is a superb commentator and was surprised to hear some knobs on The Facebook site criticising him recently
