Some great anecdotes emerging about big Jim now he's gone. Apparently he went round telling half the people at the club he should be door staff at our sports bar...

Where are you reading them? Twitter?

We're always wank against Oldham at home. Think every Crewe fan must remembers the game against them in 07-08 where we needed a point on the final day of the season and in typical Crewe style lost 4 fucking 1.

I felt extremely embarrassed to stay up that day. Had it not been for Bournemouth being docked 10 points we'd have been down.

Then there was the horrific spineless 2-0 defeat that should've been 10-0 in 2012-13.

Annoyingly we should have had 4 points from the last 2 home games, not 2. Played well and were marginally the better side vs the Dons, should have had 3 or 4 in the second half against Sheffield United last night. That would have made me feel a lot more comfortable. After we don't play this weekend, we could only be 3 points above the drop zone with Chesterfield away the week after....0 points. Theoretically, we could be just above the drop zone by the last day of the month.

I was even embarrassed last season during the 1-1 draw. We were absolutely diabolical for the entire 90 minutes and celebrated our equalizer as though we'd won the league. Think people forgot that we were playing a side who were only a few points above us at the time at our home ground and acted as though we'd achieved something brilliant.

I still think Orient will probably sneak out of it. They've got a decent away record and still have trips to Coventry, Crewe and Crawley, as well as a better goal difference than everyone else. One win and they'll probably get their heads above the line

Yep and King Zola as new manager in the summer.

The Times' Daniel Finkelstein with the probabilities of relegation.

Tony Mowbray possesses one of the most honest faces in the world. His words and demeanour don't betray this image either.

I don't want Orient or Crawley to get relegated (I got a soft spot for John Gregory) or Coventry for that matter.
But Orient has become a bit of a circus of late. Liverani is their fourth manager this season.
Crawley on the other hand have a good interim manager in Dean Saunders. I fear JG may have to resign given the recuperation needed
for the surgery he's undergoing. I wish him all the best and hope he returns when he's good and ready.

Crawley staying up would be genuinely disgusting.

I bloody hope he returns too. Want scummy Saunders off of the t.v.

Genuinely gutted. Fifth minute of injury time, defender sent off, still got a third sub to use and waste a bit of time and we go and let a pissing equaliser in. Hate football. Could have been within one win of five teams and instead we're still adrift ffs.

We haven't won back-to-back games all season, that is embarrassing. Even when we go back in front with minutes to go to do so we still blow it. Piss off U's.

100% down if Derry isn't sacked before Saturday.

Only thing that can save us is Jimmy Spencer's return

I always think this is exaggerated too much, Nugent and Milanese were only ever interim managers. Never a plan to make them permanent. Whilst technically it's true, it's not the whole picture.

On a side note... Fuckety fuck.

Think we're down, we're absolutely spineless. Players look like they don't want to play, we have to win on Tuesday.

Agreed.

So we're all decided that the relegated teams should be

Crawley - obviously
Colchester - about time plus it's a dreadful away day
Yeovil - terrible away day and a generally naff club
Orient - Mad Italians.

Notts, Crewe and Scunthorpe remain in League 1. Sorted.

Crawley were awful early season under Gregory, credit to Dean Saunders who has done well.
