I'm surprised that this hasn't happened but as institution crewe would be liable for damages to a lot of young boys. City to their credit have settled up, crewe haven't got as deep pockets haven't. At some point the ligation surely will start when it does after a year or so their public indemnity insurance will be really expensive I'm talking 7 figures. That'll make them uncompetitive and see them sink like a stone. Does anyone with a legal background help out here? Public Indemnity insurance doesn't provide coverage for illegal acts on the part of the policyholder (as don't many insurance classes). Which could have a marked financial impact on Crewe I guess but perhaps not in the manner in which you're thinking (ie. in the sense that damages would come out of their purse, not the insurer) Ah, insured and uninsured losses… Takes me back to a legal training course a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…

Just watched the third episode of S3 Welcome to Wrexham. Credit to the documentary makers, they didn’t try to brush it under the carpet.
Can you here our players in the dressing room singing ‘Wrexham get battered everywhere they go’ as their players get a dressing down after the match?

Do we know this? A genuine question. I don't know what they did and what they didn't do. It's not stuff I like to dwell on. I read a piece in When Saturday Comes by their former fanzine editor who walked away in disgust, never seen anything else, I'll hold my hands up if they were on the pitch and storming the directors box? Remember Bennell was first convicted in the 90's and there was 20 odd years of Crewe ignoring it in the hope it would go away, which worked until Andy Woodward spoke out, and even that didn't change the attitude of those running the club. One thing in our favour is we are not going to let this topic drop. Feel too many other clubs fans forgot the situation as quick as a lot of crewe fans did or wanted it to be. Think it says more about us than the rest.

Quite a powerful piece and I'd hate to be put in that position, Crewe fans would earn a lot more respect if they protested and demanded that those in charge at the time stand down.

Something that has since come to light after the Doncaster v Crewe penalty shootout is the fact that the Crewe GK threw the Doncaster GK's water bottle into the crowd. It had his penalty notes stuck to it.
Taking the fact that it was Crewe out of the matter, do people think this is cheating or just clever thinking?

Shithousery and clever thinking. Doncaster had enough stewards/photographers behind the net that he could have left it with.

Clarke-Harris released from Peterborough.
Wouldn’t be surprised if Wrexham got the chequebook out for him.
They’ve also made Tshimanga available for transfer too. Expect he’ll be back in non-league, sadly.

Is there enough of a sample size to analyse how most likely players take pens anyway? Reckon the keepers would be better off without any pre conceptions
