Boss eager for confidence boost

The Railwaymen were hammered 5-1 by Northampton at Sixfields as the hosts run riot with debutant Billy Clarke getting a hat-trick.Crewe skipper Julien Baudet was sent off for the foul which resulted in Danny Jackman scoring Northampton's second goal and he will be suspended for the match at London Road.Thordarson said: "It will be a difficult game for us and I have got to lift my players again. We threw this one away in the first couple of minutes. We were sloppy from the start and I was disappointed with several individuals."I thought that some of them could have given more and performed much better than this. They could have shown more character than they did, especially in the second half when I felt some of them gave up too easily."
