Yh 2 goals from nothing really. They have put us under no pressure at all. We are by far the better side but the usual "10 minute shutdown" may cost us the 3 points today if we don't come back out like we started.

Such a strange game. Crawley have done nothing all game and two hopeful punts upfield for them have resulted in 2 goals. We should be about 3 goals to the good.
The one stark thing for me in all this is the difference in approach between Preston and Crawley. Preston closed us down and denied us space and Crawley have allowed us absolutely acres of space. Sometimes we have players receiving the ball with no-one within 10 yards of them.
Don't wish to knock the City's performance, but on the ball we are under so much less pressure than we were last week. Only McQuoid and Jackson are being tightly marked, Thomas, Fleck and O'Brien at times have lots of time on the ball without challenge.

They just stopped I assume expecting the whistle to go for handball. For 5 minutes Phillips clearly had a problem they already tried to exploit once and were given a second opportunity.

Couldn't get a ticket for first game. Went to the next 2 and I'll go to those that I can (family commitments today). Poor show, though. Need a concerted push up the table to bring back those who have found other things to do, as well as a few of those that go for the big 'uns only.

Game that promised much and delivered little.....maybe Reda being back next game will make a difference.
