Maxted Big Ben the lot ...... they have things to prove first eleven have nothing to prove.

Crewe played a team of Academy players, all of them with at least one first team game on their CV.

A positive from today is that the Shrimps managed to hold on for a draw at Coventry and preserve their League status. Coventry's second-biggest crowd of the season! Well done to 'em.

[AccyMad]

Disappointing but can't be too down after what the lads have done this season - they looked jiggered, bless 'em - Kidderminster all over again at end of conference winning season.
Still a good day out & our lot, as usual barely stopped singing in stark contrast to the Swindon fans who didn't have a chant between 'em

[cashman]

The fact they looked jiggered, yet the bench warmers didn't start, dont say a right lot about good tactics in my book. crewe played theres today and won.

Stanley fans were fantastic today. Atmosphere just before kick off was electric with Dave Burgess flaunting the L2 trophy.
Stanley started like champions but once Swindon scored, they seemed to deflate. And after Swindon scored two more, they ended like chumpians.
Combination of some very lackadaisical defending, nothing going right for Stanley, and, as Professor Coleman said, Swindon converting their few chances.
Their No.30 rightly MoM as he caused trouble all over the pitch. Wonder if he fancies playing for a League 1 team?

Looking at the shirt numbers of the Swindon team (most of 'em seemed be 30 plus) I thought they must be fringe players! If they were they certainly gave Stanley a haircut today.

Disappointing end to a brilliant and memorable season. But, heh, the records will still show Stanley as champions.

A bit rich Coley having a go at the lads after the game though ....... he should have freshened everything up. He can be obstinate at times.

Looking at the table, it would seem obstinate works ....

[smudgie]

Have to agree with others posts, why not play the likes of Maxted, Big Ben, Rodgers, Williams, etc etc ??? Give them a run out with fresh legs on a hot day, with nothing to lose ??

A very strange decision for me.

Disagree, i fail to see how obstinacy encourages a young player to stay. no-ones knocking his achievements, but its obvious to me why a big club aint come a knocking fer J.C. despite all the miracles he got at Stanley.

Two weeks ago all three EFL champions went away and won 0-4. This weekend two of them lost 3-0!
Only Wigan spoilt the symmetry and, guess what, they needed to win yesterday to ensure they were champions!
C'est la football.

No ones talking about the games up to securing promotion then the Championship - stop distorting things.
The starting 11 were spent forces even a numpty like me could see that going into this game.
Maxted Big Ben Sousa Zanzala should have started minimum.
