  1. The problem is most of it is either daft marks, match fixing allegations, believing ludicrous rumours, not understanding anything beyond "passion" in players or a manager and your ongoing efforts to move Nathan Smith up the CIA's High Value Target list!
    Smiths done that himself.

  2. Jury still very much out for me on DM.

    Don't blame him entirely for our relegation, though think he has to shoulder some responsibility as he's completely failed to get any kind of tune out of what he has had. He's also continued to play the same formation despite us clearly not being suited for it.

    He's actually made us worse going forward imho.

    His biggest sin for me has been playing Garrity, our top scorer, in deep midfield for the majority of his time here.

    One transfer window and until November for me to prove that he's got what it takes.

  3. Never quite worked out why it all went wrong for Louis. He never had pace, so in theory could have carried on playing far longer in the lower leagues. His first season at Shrewsbury was probably his best. Not sure he was ever quite suited to playing 442. There was a little run of games when he partnered AJ Leitch-Smith when I thought both were outstanding as almost 2 false 9s. Never quite understood why Aspin signed him as he never really suited the way he ended up wanting to play. Maybe if Aspin had been brave enough to stick with the 3 5 2 he kept trying in preseason Louis would have done well as a 10.


    Any player who wasn't a central defender didn't suit Aspins style. Sure he played 5 in one game


  4. Sounds like DM will be clearing most of them out and then rebuilding a new side around the youngsters here already.
    The joy of close season, looking for the retained list and thinking what - why let him go, you kept them and then wondering who will be coming in.  


    I don't think anybody in their right mind will be saying 'why let him go?' when the retained list is published. Will probably be the first time this season everybody is in full agreement

  5. Were you saying that during promotion season? And every other L2 season for that matter? 
    L2 is his level and guess where we are next season… He can still do a job for us.
    We've been garbage except for 1.5 seasons Smith has been a first team regular. People used to make the same argument about Pope. First season after we let him go we went up
  6. We weren't in the bottom 4 when he came.
    We've scored in 7 out of 16 games and he's managed 9 points out of 48.
    Woeful
    Agreed. If this had been anybody but DM (say Kennedy who was written off immediately when he was rumoured) there would be no OVF for molten servers

  7. We've got players coming back into fitness at just the right time.
    Thought plant was decent in this game despite being played out of position twice.
    Uche not far away and will be helpful as a last 30mins chaos sub.
    Clarke there or there abouts.
    Be interesting to see how much of a high Dipepa is on after his U17 exploits. We might actually have a stronger first 11 and more threat on the bench
    DM hinted that Clark is going to be out for the season, as is Dan Gore
  8. But at least we played with pride.
    I keep saying it....we are worse under Moore.
    I somehow lasted at the game until the point where Wilson aimed a cross field ball to DiPepa...straight out of play.
    Then the interviews....God help us,although,I don't think he actually could 
    Carol has allowed Fraudcroft to help assemble this squad and we are stuck with them next season. His process is appalling ..it has no substance. Get loans in,they go back,get more loans in. The only striker we have signed is Uche. Even an idiot knows you won't score goals with no strikers. Arblaster made Ojo look decent. Devine carried the MF when he'd gone. I actually think Ollie will get young player of the season and he hasn't played since December.
    Owen Dale has made 15 appearances and 13 as sub with 2 goals and 2 assists. Jones made him look like Messi. This was playing against a team that got hammered 5-0 on Tuesday.
    Yesterday will have been the last straw for a lot of fans. They've already started disappearing where I sit...over 20 home defeats in 2 seasons ..Carol...you are running the club with your patronizing appointment of El Presidente and your snotty condescending letter to the fans backed by an obnoxious arrogant fool who announced he isnt thinking of relegation 


  9. It the vale players Carol Flitcroft that make the vale fans miserable and fed up it not the fans fault that port vale are second from the bottom of the league . I think the vale fans have been extremely  patient.  to put up with a lot of the rubbish that port vale football club as put the fan though .   I will be going and supporting the vale till the end of the season . 
    Are you going to change your username to 'Vale till the end of the season'?

    Good on you VTID, we need all the support we can get. One win and the right results elsewhere can materially change our prospects in one afternoon. Let's hope that comes about on Saturday

  10.  
    Reset as much as you're like. But don't try to insist that everyone should be like you. You can do a jig before every match right now and convince yourself we're going to win. That's your choice. Others prefer to be a little more realistic and know exactly what's coming, because we see it week after week instead. Gutless, spineless players with a few exceptions who are ultimately very poor at football for this level. No amount of back patting, high fives and virtue signalling changes that.
    Here he is, right on schedule
