Swindon Town v Crewe Alexandra pre match chat and matchday thread

[Bob's Orange]

Crewe are without their top scorer and I think they have another striker coming back from an injury who isn't ready to play. I suspect this Crewe side won't be as open and expansive as previous sides down the years. (I think we have a good reckon against them at the CG historically)

I think they will be compact and it may be a similar game to the Tranmere one, possibly settled by a single goal.

I do worry that teams that pack the defence and press eventually make us play "safeball" - i.e. play it around the back.

If we can take an early chance it could be a comfortable win though.

For that reason. 3-0

I'm trying to get the 3 ticket bundle but they don't give you the option of trying to pick a seat, it just allocates an available one for all 3 games. Any way around this?

I also just tried and it doesn't look like you can. Just for testing purposes I chose Arkells tickets and it put me in a crap block at the front. It might be worth tweeting the tickets office (you are probably not on twitter mind you) or giving them a buzz.

Got it spot on April 15. Harrogate 1 Swindon 4

Better than JJ’s perennial 0-0’s!

I have given up predicting in recent games, TBH I got more right at 0-0 that you did with 4-1 piece of piss wins

I'll probably just book the tickets then sit where I want 
Can't see a sell out in the TE for any of these games.

I thought the people in the TE did that anyway?

We stand where we want, we stand where we waaaaant....

[Jimmy Quinn]

Great news that's he's almost ready for selection

2-1 loss today I think

So, once more unto the breach dear friends.
Not referring to the game itself but to the little person that sits behind and the battering that the back of the seat will take, plus the inevitable foot in the lower back through the gap and the occasional slap to the head from a flailing arm.
All good fun.

do you sit in front of Johnny Williams?

[Wobbly Bob]

I'm sure that little Jonny would be much better behaved.
Hopefully sitting on the bench in Qatar won't lead to any mischief as the attention span is put to the test.

Got my 3 ticket bundle

Remember watching David Platt playing for Crewe against us in the 80s.
