It wasnt crouch's fault, it was wilde's. Crouch. lawrie, trant and corbett didnt have a say. It was wilde who brought in hone, oldknow and dulieu. Hone and dulieu with wilde made the decision to gamble the money in 2006. Crouch can be judged from december 2007. In that time he made the appointment of pearson which was good and worked 5 days a week for free. He also paid for the ted bates statue out of his own money. Lets not get confused. It is lowe's fault mainly but wilde lied to the non execs.
