Manager Paolo di Canio had lots to say after Swindon lost 2-0 at Crewe and went as far as branding his team "stupid and silly".
Goals from Nick Powell and Ashley Westwood in Saturday's League Two encounter at Gresty Road condemned the leaders to only their second defeat in 14 games. "Sometimes we are stupid, and we behaved absolutely as if we were stupid and silly," said the Robins boss. "In the last few weeks some of my players have lost their passion and desire and now it is up to me which players I choose. "I have to discover why and find the key to motivate them to make sure we finish in the top three and go up. "Maybe some of my players didn't accept my advice during the week or they accepted it with arrogance."
