Incredibly impressed by the way Crawley play and the results they get from it. They were absolutely everyone’s favourite to go down. He’s head and shoulders the manager of the year but didn’t even get a nomination! This is really impressive. but imagine the reaction of many County fans nowadays if we signed players like that before the season started. Wilson would be smelling tar and watching feathers blown past the ground.

Crawley have put together two of the best semi final legs that the play offs have ever seen. Going to Franchise and beating them like that in their own backyard given their home record under Williamson is some achievement. Would love to see Lolos and/or Orsi at County, real footballers. Huge credit to Scott Lindsay as well, when DC inevitably moves on we could do a lot worse than look at him. Didn’t they say yesterday that Lindsey wanted to manage in the championship one day. If Crawley go up he might get a move upwards before Challinor.

If Crawley go up he might get a move upwards before Challinor. yeah they did. Tbh I can see it. Maybe because financially we can afford to keep challinor but crawley possession is probably better than our possession Yes we have more average possession over the season but I think crawleys possession will be higher up the pitch than ours which will be key

Its hard to imagine anyone doing a good job at league 2 level saying they,d be happy to stay at that level unless they are getting on in life as a player or manager.

Loved the way Crawley approached that 2nd leg, that's how football should be played. Many teams would've just tried to shut up shop & defend a fairly secure 3-0 1st leg lead but they said from the off they were going to go for it as that's the only way they know. It was great to watch as a neutral but if you were a Crawley fan then it's dreamland time.
Mixed feelings about the final. I dislike Crewe immensely but it's a Cheshire derby, easy to get to & I love the atmosphere we create when we go there especially when we beat the cnuts & after the damage they did to the popside I'd love the chance to play them again & give them a good hiding on the pitch in two league fixtures next season as revenge. But then again if there's one team that deserves to drop out of the league entirely & disappear into non league oblivion it's Crewe & I begrudge them any kind of success so hopefully Crawley prevail at Wembley & break the dirty nonces hearts.

I,d guess the media and the match commentators will not be feeling that way about them. They are bound to bring up how good they are for improving young talent and any positives they can dig up about them. Bit like their fans as its a historical pick and mix about the club. If its anything like the match commentary against rovers it will be like a home stream one that mad JK sound a neutral in ours.

Crewe can f*ck off. Despised them for a very long time before any of the stories came out. And still not forgotten the glee they took from our relegation either. I wish them nothing but failure and strife.

I wish them nothing but failure and strife. Well thats certainly something we can 100% totally agree on so it must be correct and no matter what they do positive i,ll never ever change my views on them. Love to see em having a real cheshire derby with nantwich town on their fixture list with their new owner robbie savage naming gresty road as the robbie savage arena.

I wish them nothing but failure and strife. I'm waiting for the day when their insurance contributions make them uncompetitive due to the child abuse scandal.

It’s not about forgiving them in regards to this though is it. In terms of what’s a better away day and more convenient for a couple of thousand County fans to get to, it’s Crewe all day long. I agree. Better away day, more convenient but don't deserve any success until they take responsibility for what happened at their club. If you bought a house from an owner that was a murderer, it doesn’t make you a murderer. The current staff and players have nothing to take responsibility for.

I don't think he wasn't wanted, just knew Swindon are a real mess of a club.

I wonder if the league 2 playoff trophy engraver has taken the opportunity to get a head start?
