    Sang is not a defender should never be playing right back.  Have a look at Shrewsbury's first goal last week and see who was ball-watching, lost his man, and cost us a sloppy goal yet again.   If we play a back 4 Smith should play there.  Whoever told him he was a centre-back did his career a huge disservice, he would make a decent right back in a back 4.

    He can’t run and he can’t pass (smith) definitely not a right back.

    Have you not seen our new manager and his extended coaching team?

    They are not going to be on an average wage 

    And Crosby before that? When we were paying Clarkes wage?

    Is it the same someone that told you that the club is skint, something that you have been repeating on here for a number of months now?

    Yes. Has our transfer business suggested we are loaded ?

    Remember, you are the one telling everyone that the club is skint and now all of a sudden you know every player's weekly wage. Do me and everyone a favour

    I never said I knew every players wages. You have a habit of making things up Bri. I’ve been told by someone who I trust that there is a cap on wages and it is £3k a week. Stop making things up. I don’t serve cappuccino either.👍🏻

    I believe them. You don’t believe me. You don’t have to get personal and try to belittle my job when most people would think themselves lucky to do a job they love and one that pays very well. 👌

    So, you know each players wage because every player tell's you what are they earning  when you are serving up their cappuccino?

     

    Yes Brian. Of course.

    Hang on , do you really think Fraudcroft will speak to fan's at reception, it's not going to happen the guy is Spineless .

    I’d imagine he would speak to grown ups yes. Probably not those frothing at the mouth or calling him fraudcroft and spineless. And I wouldn’t blame him either.

    Just  like your info

    Bri, you can go and speak to DF at the club, or ask a player, or speak to the clubs accountant or someone who has dinner with Carol after home games and ask them. When you have done that, let me know.

    If it was as simple as that there’s no way we’d be replacing Crosby and his staff with Darren Moore and his, we’d have no choice but to go for a cheaper option.  Also, Flitcroft himself said we missed out on countless targets, 9 strikers(?), the vast majority not down to money.  In fact in the last 2 January windows we’ve hung on for players until the 11th hour only to see the deals fall through leaving us up 💩creek because we’ve had no contingency plan in place.  That’s rank bad planning.  There will have been strikers out there to fit any budget, there are rumours that Uche is on a fair wedge plus we seemingly paid money for Loft who the DoF said we’d been monitoring for months.  Carol would’ve had little if any say in either deal other than perhaps deciding they were both very nice chaps with all the right values before she signing the cheques.

    I wonder if we can afford Moore because we stopped paying Clarke once he became Cheltenham manager.

    I do admit that the wins look doubtful, but by the looks of the table although it is 6 points as a gap, 3 of those points are in our hands as we have to play Cambridge. We need a run of points. Even following up last night with a draw against Oxford would add to that. 

    My Oxford supporting colleague is convinced we will beat them. He says they are dreadful at the minute.

    Carol managed that at the start of this season despite record gates the previous one. 

    Port Vale cannot be self sufficient and compete in league 1.

    It's been going on for 18 months now though where we are not learning any lessons.

    Any other clubs been dicing with relegation like us before actually succumbing to it?

    No Bri we are very special and the only club that have struggled for a couple of seasons after going up.

    We need a properly organised protest against Flitcroft. I hate to single out one person but he’s made his own rope by stating plainly he is responsible for “all things football”. Well the football is dire, we’ve hired mentally weak, uninterested and untalented players with an total imbalance positionally, and I am confident the squad is quite expensive ironically.

    Vale fans love a protest. Well overdue one. 

     

    I'd hazard a guess that all the other teams that look like they are being relegated are not trying to arrange protests against somebody. It's in the Vale blood and I wondered how long it would be before the coffin comes back out.

    The point is that these players were recruited after a big show of clearing out the deadwood. I think using the term has inadvertently meant that we have only recruited players who couldn't find anywhere better rather than actually wanting to play for Vale. Which is why they are not very good. 

    Didn't we get promotion that season?

    It was blindingly obvious from pre season the budget was cut but when this got raised, most people thought it was ungrateful to suggest St Carol was doing such a thing. 

    Much easier to blame DF for not performing a miracle than to ever suggest Carol may have got something wrong.
