Feeble attempt to drum up something interesting on a Tuesday night.
Crewe play Wolves u21s tonight in the Pizza cup.
If Wolves win we are out before we even play tomorrow.
if wolves win on pens we go through if we win (on goal difference)
any other result tonight and we win tomorrow we go...
Weekend in London for me and Mrs Itis, looking forward to a new ground and hoping for a "bounce back" reaction to Tuesday's result.
Have we ever won back to back away games in London ? (Not counting FA Cup semi / final which were "neutral" venues).
Just found this re cards from 2019, must admit, this had completely passed me by.
New rules have been brought in this season which mean changes across many areas including the yellow and red card system.
In the past, yellow cards picked up in the Premier League, football leagues, FA Cup or...
Tested positive for Covid, feel like absolute dog turd, not been on here (or been able to do much of anything else) for 36 hours, surely it won't matter - apart from yet another off topic tit for tat spat. It's getting really tedious now and I just can't be bothered at the moment. I'm just going...
No video stream for the game, only audio.

Can we expect the usual wholesale changes for a cup match or does Leam take the opportunity to give the intended starting X1 more minutes together ?
Saturday 17th July 15:00 Oldham Ath (A)
Tuesday 20th July 19:30 AFC Fylde (A)
Friday 23rd July 19:00 Bootle FC (A)
Tuesday 27th July 19:30 Stoke City (H)

I'm losing track already, have I missed anyone ?
Let's see how this shapes up over the next couple of months.
Jamie Jones
Jack Whatmough
Adam Long
Tom Pearce
Luke Robinson
Thelo Aasgaard
Will Keane
Callum Lang
Gavin Massey
Gwion Edwards
Very difficult to gauge intent until we start to see some signings and therefore it could be interesting to see how our expectations change over time, but based on what little we know today what would be your criteria for a successful season next season.
For me, it's about progressing steadily...
Makes a pleasant change not fretting about a result, seems to have been a long long time.
Wonder what team selection he'll go for, we obviously want to win the final game but do you give a nod to the future and select the likes of Aasgaard, Merrie, Joseph, Long ?
I'd hope the ones who are...
17/22 for me, mainly due to lucky guessing if I'm honest

Latics will monitor forward Callum Lang in the next 24 hours ahead of a potential return to action on Tuesday evening after he missed Saturday's win at Doncaster Rovers. Lang suffered a head injury against Portsmouth on Easter Monday and missed Saturday's trip to Keepmoat Stadium as a...
Not a must win game, but we need to start picking some points up from this run of tough games or we will be cut adrift.
Gutted that Lang is unavailable, wonder what team selection Leam will go for. The only natural width is Viv and he's walking wounded.
Loved away days at Donny, think my...
Accrington v Burton
Ipswich v Bristol
Northampton v Sherwsbury
Plymouth v Wimbledon
Pompey v Rochdale
Swindon v Blackpool
Could do with Paul Cook doing us a favour today. Can't see Rochdale getting anything but fancy Burton will beat Accy.
Let's hope the announcement gives the players as much of a boost as it has to us fans and doesn't distract them from the job in hand.
I find it quite fitting that we are playing Wimbledon tonight, who've obviously gone through their own incredible resurrection journey to get to their current...
