Crewe Alexandra (H) Nov 9th, 3pm

A win is really important in our quest for automatic promotion.
We might not play in the league again until the Wimbledon game on the 23rd November.which will be a tough game and a point there will be a great result and keep the momentum going .

Hopefully not on the end of a 2-6 defeat!

From Walsall to Warsaw…
From Poundland to Poland…
It’ll be home from home for young Tommy! :grinning:

P.S. is it just me that thinks of Grange Hill when they see the word Poland? I always think of the character Roland and have to pronounce it as Row Land in my head! Even the predictive text initially changed Poland to Roland! :joy:

Have Crewe sold there allocation yet?

They’ve sold 705 according to @BovrilandSmax .

Fantastic effort from the club. Would hope to see us pushing towards 8000 on Saturday.

Not impossible, around 1k from Crewe, 2k in school tickets, needs 5k plus in home fans and we are there.

Fab response for the school partnership tickets, just need them to make some noise too
Of course a top notch performance would help, my worry is that never seems to happen when the school kids are in

We’ve never had a decent team either :wink:

I blame all this on none other than Mr Ben Sadler, it’s his fault we are getting good crowds

Spot on mate.
There’ll be queues for food and drink, queues for the loos, and some people might even have to sit in their allocated seat.
It’s going to take ages to get off the car park and the locker isn’t appealing because it looks like a garage.

Bloke should be sacked.

I welcome the fact our players are getting recognition but I don’t think these breaks do us much good. The re arranged game will not get near the gate we would have got next Saturday. This is detrimental to our finances and the team.

Sounds like a better following from Crewe than first thought. They posted on twitter this afternoon that there were 3 remaining tickets behind the goal with more available on the gate. I think they had an allocation of 800 odd
