That’s a huge game for Kettle junior at Crewe..is that his first
visit to Gresty Road?
I’m sure many of our distinguished Crewe reporters would have
seen his father in action over the years, it would be good to
get a well balanced and honest report on proceedings, as we are
normally accustomed too, and if there are any similarities!

Correct, his first visit to GR. We had him away at Salford last
season, just over a year ago, to which I thought he was ok.

I never did see dad in action, but I certainly hope to see his
son in action on Saturday in what is a massive game for both
sides.

Indeed, a season debut for Sunny Gill in mid April, hopefully he
gets a few games under his belt to prepare for next season. I
believe that leaves just Scott Tallis on the national list yet
to appear this season.
Kirsty Dowle, James Bell, ZKK, Andrew Humphries and Tom Parsons
with some of the best games - Parsons goes from 4O at Wembley to
a Championship debut to a big promotion game, his star is
shining bright at the moment.
Speaking of Wembley, Martin Coy goes from 90,000 seats to 2,000
this weekend as Colchester United (or should that be John
Terry’s Colchester United?!) take the trip to Wetherby Road with
the hosts in big trouble. One of the most pleasant towns to
visit in the league so I hope we beat them, but i’d like to see
them stay up too.
With the national league nearly all sewn up and little to play
for, I wonder if we’ll see some new faces next week, if the
PGMOL want to push any referees. 3 experienced referees in Ross
Joyce, Abi Byrne and Darren Drysdale get the meaningful games
this week.
