The evidence re Crawley is simply put that they are clearly a far better counter attacking side away from home than the league position indicates. Anyone with an ounce of sense would thus realise you've got to be aware of that and not fully commit.

I'm not. I'm just saying he's not as bad as he's painted. We've had far worse managers.
