Baker to calm rash duo down

Crewe assistant manager Neil Baker has urged Ashley Westwood and Shaun Miller to curb their rash tendencies on the pitch.

Alex were leading November's FA Cup first-round clash with Colchester when defender Westwood received a straight red card for a two-footed lunge on Ben Coker. Steve Davis' first game at the helm that day ended in a 4-1 defeat, while the Railwaymen's recent impressive npower League Two form was threatened when Miller's late challenge on Sergio Torres left them to battle for 75 minutes with 10 men in the 1-1 draw with Crawley. "They're certainly not one-offs with Shaun or Westy," said Baker. "They've both been sent off in the past so I don't think it is anything to do with the new regime or any changes that have happened. Shaun has shown in the past that he can react like that. "So I know it's not anything that's been said by ourselves to them - that's in their make-up I'm afraid."
