VIEW FROM THE DRESSING ROOM
Crewe manager Steve Davis told BBC Stoke:
"Extremely disappointed really. I didn't see that one [coming] after two decent performances.
"The disappointing thing today is we didn't show any fight. There wasn't enough out there who showed any character.
"The game was very tight up to the first goal. 0-0 at half-time was probably fair.
"But after that, once they scored the goal, we didn't show any fight to get back into the game."
