Matt Tootle

[7] Less than a year later, Tootle became a winner at Wembley for the second time, playing the whole match as Crewe defeated Southend 2–0 in the 2013 Football League Trophy Final.

[8] As Crewe battled against relegation in the 2013–14 season, Tootle replaced teammate Abdul Osman as captain of the side in March 2014.

Crewe stayed up following a final-day win over Preston North End, and following Osman's departure it was decided he would continue in this role for the 2014–15 season.

[11] He made his debut on the opening day of the 2015–16 season against Millwall,[12] and scored his first goal for the club in a League Cup second-round tie against Crystal Palace,[13] but he did not feature again at first-team level following a defeat at Port Vale on 31 October.

[15] On the same day that he left Shrewsbury Town, Tootle joined League Two side Notts County on a two-year contract.
