Dead patches in newish lawn....Fusarium wilt?

I posted a while ago about dead patches in lawn I turfed last Autumn. Tried a couple of suggestions but it's carried on spreading. I've just tried to rake out the dead stuff with a view to re-seeding, about a week after trying liquid seaweed. Looks worse than I thought. While buying seed I noticed a Bayer? product for Fusarium wilt in grass. Pics looked very similar. Anyone 'up' on this disease, what sort of conditions/soil etc it thrives in? Thanks.

Thanks for suggestion but no.Too much affected now and it's been like it all year. My fault to start with because after laying the turfs, the first cut was apparently far too short and probably weakened the 'plants'.That's why I'm suspicious that the grass has become diseased.
