Worst news we could have had but I think we were all expecting something like this. Damn & bugger.
He's been tremendous this season and we'll miss him immensely.

Hurry up and get better soon, Crofty. You will be very difficult to replace.

Very bad news indeed. Replacing the goals he would have scored is going to be very tough indeed not to mention the rest of the excellent contribution he has made this season. Gutted for him.

Terrible news for us, we need to find a midfield terrier shortly or perhaps use Ince with Andrews as holding midfielder.

Doesn't look good, but he's a battler and i'm sure will come back just as strong.

Gutted for Crofts but I expected it, given the way he went down and his reaction yesterday. We need to sort out Bridcutt asap now. Either sell him and use the money plus Barnes money to bring a winger, striker and replacement for Crofts in or him to come back and be another option for central midfield.

Time for Agustien and Orlandi to show they're back to full fitness too.

It sums up our season that we finally break into the top 6 and then lose one of our best players so far for the rest of the season (especially after he was so good yesterday).

Shame but depth of squad should cover enough. All the best crofty

Now is the time for Agustien to step up and show what he is capable of. Not a lung-busting midfielder like Crofts but has shown glimpses that he has the potential to boss midfield and be chief chance creator

Crofts injury..how bad?

This is hammer blow. Despite yesterday's result losing Barnes , crofts and probably Bridcutt in one week, feels like the final nail in the coffin of play off hopes!!!
