Ah yes, the Crewe Rivals site.
There is one pillock on that site (I think his name is Dave Colclough) who
writes this sort of rubbish about every club Crewe play. I remember he once
described Wigan as "the town of human excement", and not surprisingly this
caused a bit of aggravation on that site's message board when Wigan fans
objected.
No surprise that he doesn't know that the Kray twins are already dead. But I
don't think his views are representative of Crewe fans in general.

Crewe face Leeds live on Sky on Monday night, as everyone's favourite
Yorkshire club visits Gresty Road for what will, no doubt, be a lively day for
the local sheep population.
It's perhaps one of the more eagerly awaited fixtures of the season, and will
surely be the largest attendance of the year, but for me the visit of Leeds
holds no great attraction. Dennis Wise, a man who bears more than a passing
resemblance to a hormonal pixie, seems to epitomise a club that has been
disliked since the 1970s, and the infamous antics of Bremner et al.
Now, I imagine that Elland Road is the type of place where the Kray twins would
settle down when they get too old to wipe their own arses. Ken Bates seems like
a caricature in his own right; a man who floats around carried above the ground
by the bluster of controversy that exudes from every pore of his being.
Apparently a resident of Monaco, Bates appears to have fingers in every
financial pie possible, from football to haulage to farming to freemasonry and
to secret meetings with the CIA.
And, into this mix, is thrown Wise and assistant manager Dave Bassett. Wise,
who Alex Ferguson once quipped could start a fight in an empty house, has an
impressive career resume that includes assaulting a taxi driver, biting
someone's ear, punching a team-mate who was asleep (and being sacked) and
managing to play football for Wimbledon and Chelsea at some point in the middle
of all this.
His assistant, Bassett, is a coach well know for his attractive style of play
and being called 'Harry' - hardly a glowing indictment when you're more
renowned for being called a name that isn't your own than your managerial
acumen. Into all this, we throw the Leeds fans, still adamant that they belong
in the Champions League and still adamant that Elland Road should be paved with
gold whilst semi-naked girls offer their wares to anyone with a season ticket.
It is a bit of a fantasy land in which Leeds live; a land I imagine that is
separated from the rest of the modern world by some strange twisting of space,
time and a 1980s De Lorean.
In terms of team news, Crewe's only worry is Billy Jones who is still missing
with an ankle injury. It is expected that a central defender may move across to
left-back to replace the former Exeter man, after Ryan Lynch was sent out on
loan.
Steve Holland meanwhile referred to Wise as a 'deep' thinker who has had 'great
experiences'. We assume the sarcasm was attended.
