Fan comments
"Connolly and Bishop were finding it tough to get on the ball"
"Some players are more able to cope with the demands of playing in a physical league game after game. Connolly would be given a rest for sure if we actually had any other fit midfielders."

"Dowell - 5 - not one of his better games.....in fact probably one of his worse. He ended up having to do the stuff that Bouchalakis should have been doing."

Crewe Alexandra - Conor Grant played full match in 2-0 away win over Chesterfield
OS Match Report
"A powerful run from Conor Grant down the Crewe right hand side saw him fight tenaciously for possession and keep the move alive. The ball was finally worked into Kirk but Porter had just strayed offside as he tried to race onto his accurate through ball."
"After Chris O’Grady had pinched possession from Tom Lowery, the Crewe midfielder was delighted to see Conor Grant cover to rob it back off Kristian Dennis on the edge of the box. Grant rolled the ball back to Garratt to safely clear the danger."
"Captain Chris Dagnall also went close to adding a third with a late effort after a cross from Grant and a quick interchange of passing."
