Same sort of team that we played at their ground earlier in the season

Crewe are our bogey team imho, but I have a good friend who is a Crewe ST holder & thinks they are out of gas & racked with injuries. So perhaps the owl maybe a little busy or not as the case may be.
Logic would suggest playing a similar side to when we completely battered them errrr 2-2 at their place.
Smith
Foulkes
Mcentee
DD

Crewe seem to have a knack of coming back into games a lot this season, so it would suggest tactical flexibility and the use of subs will be key today
UTS
Stirk, Knowles and Draper should be dropped. Very poor quality.
Maher, Foulkes and DJT to start.
Well we dont normally win on a Tuesday night, so lets hope our luck turns with an afternoon kick off
Oh i wont be watching, think Iād rather stay in the sun, keep me updated 
Most teams always seem to be 12 months ahead of us, when are we going to catch up?
I donāt like being negative but I donāt see any positives unfortunately, we are no further along now than when we got relegated, probably further back if anything.

āCome on ā Tommy 
Trying to recover my early season mantra of enjoying the day with friends and family without the shitshow on the pitch getting to me.
Think we will lose 1-3.
Something about conditions, uncharacteristically sloppy at the back, wasteful with the ball, not energetic enough without it, not our usual selves, great chance to bounce back quickly in a couple of days time, determined, put it right, window, long term.
Look forward to seeing you all there.

I think 3 points today is important for Matt Sadler that would make 4 wins in 5 and takes the pressure off the wrexham gameā¦ lose today that leaves just wrexham to play before January where i think a decision will be made on his future.

Probably the first time Iāve ever wished we weāre away on Boxing Day, somewhere local like Carlisle, that way I wouldnāt have to go and watch our lucky dip team āmanaged and coachedā by Matt Sadler who is busy destroying not only mine but also, and from what Iāve read and been told, quite a number of longstanding fans enthusiasm for our team.
Couldnāt care less about his bizarre football ideas and how he thinks we play as we limp on bleeding the optimism from our support and replacing it with a new mantra from some fans like it could be worse or similar shite.
Oh, and Happy Christmas!

That would be a reasonable team imo, but just wish we had a better option down the right to give knowles a rest. Surely we have to be more positive in team selection after the game at Accrington.
Need to be brave today and on the front foot from minute one. They are suffering with a lot of injuries atm. Need to take advantage of this and it would take the pressure off Fridayās match

Trying to decide if I stay in the warm bar - anybody know what the team is yet?
That reminds me of an old joke - Sadler has named his team for todayās game ā¦ Crewe.

Hutch starts in place of Okagbue (McEntee drops into LCB?)
Otherwise the same starting line up as Accrington.
Not a bad team. Weāre playing two upfront!
Hae you ever noticed over the last few months DJ has been at the end of the subs list which I take to mean he is only on there as an act of desperation. Smacks of protecting their August investment from injury that might effect his January sale proceeds.

Or perhaps he has the highest shirt/squad number?
Donāt know if thatās the case but he is No. 39
