    We can't shift Loft because he's under contract.  We can't make the same mistake with Wilson - 21 starts and 4 goals in the league.  I wouldn't re-sign Uche.  He is a heavyweight boxer, not a footballer.  

    Does Uche have an extension option in his contract?

  2. Open letter to Carol…
    Sort this show out. Give us back some pride! 
     
    Signed, 
    Every Port Vale fan past and present. 
     
    PS tell Darren to release his retained list this week! Let’s get going rather than farting around! 
     
    We don't need to know before the end of May, we are not signing players. Useful.to know that is all.

    Seems odd Simpson quoted as saying mid table budget in L2 then ? 

    Maybe who knows, just limiting expectations or he knows how much he will get and it will put him mid range. Main thing is how the money is spent,

  4. Definitely had Armstrong who seemed to do very little. He was meant to be going to Wrexham I think and it fell through.
    Just had quick ganders and he scored 3 in 20 for Carlisle. He has a 3 1/2 year deal so they splashed the cash definitely on him. 
    Carlisle have Yanks from Florida behind them, not on the scale of Wrexham though.

    I strongly believe every club outside the greed is good league should boycott the FA Cup. I certainly won’t be attending any ties in that competition unless the decision is reversed (which won’t happen). So that’s 2 competitions I will now boycott purely due to that league

    Keep replays and let them make a choice, play in European competitions or the FA Cup, not both. Maybe we could  see other teams in the cup final rather than the near endless repeats between 6 teams in England.

    Well just got back from London and saw something unbelievable explain to me how Coventrys winning goal is offside .

    The games gone great game though simms hitting bar and Wright driving wide just shows what van be achieved with a good manager (Robins ) .

    Love the F.A Cup 

    Well played Coventry 

    Not the winners that make the FA Cup it is the underdogs attempting giant killing acts. I am  convinced the VAR disallowing Covs last minute  goal was a view taken before the ball was kicked. A defender moved back  to play him on in the split second when the ball was kicked. Image being a Cov supporter.

    If that's Football league world it's just speculative journalism. 

    However I'd be amazed if he doesn't attract interest. Had a few critics on here but his stats are impressive in an appalling team. 

    Of course, his stats will appear on all the recruiting processors, no hidden players anymore.

  8. I don’t know what to believe, which is exactly my problem and what leads people to speculate.
    I’d also like to point out that I haven’t done any speculating on CG, but merely asked for those in the know to share their knowledge rather than simply telling people they’re wrong.
    Again, if there’s something CS feels like she can tell one fan, she should be prepared to share it with all the fans.
    Employment matters can be made public under some circumstances. Usually, some aspects are confidential, just because some fans may be privy to certain aspects does not mean they have to share them. Pointing out misleading aspects can be a help or ignored. I was disappointed when he left, why I am not sure.

  9. Because people care, Jacko.
    The fanbase shouldn’t be a hierarchy – if there’s anything one fan can know, the whole fanbase can know it.
    While I appreciate the time, money, and effort you, Bede, and the others put in for the betterment of our club, dangling little tidbits of information in front of the rest of us is just plain unhelpful. 
    I’d honestly rather you just say nothing than “No, you’re wrong, but I refuse to tell you why you’re wrong”.
    So you would prefer to believe the opposite is true.

    Evey season roughly 1 : 6 teams get relegated. I think this will be my 7th relegation in 55 seasons. It's never been the end of the world some predict. Yes it's extremely disappointing but history also shows we bounce back. 

    9 promotions 9 relegations for me, unfortunately the gulf between L1 and L2 is getting bigger, the Championship is now massive.  As with the FA Cup fiasco the only decisions are about money for the few.

  11. Just been on twitter some lowlife predicted score for tomorrow  someone of no relevance 
    Bolton 7 Vale 0
    Just pin it to the dressing room wall .
    Go out and show pride in the shirt 
    When they shoot block it throw yourselves at the ball I don't see that that's why we down there the ball cannot go in our net if you mentally don't want it too 
    When they pass close them down quickly .
    Give those 1100 plus away support the win they deserve 
    Score first and keep going
    Uche hat trick 
    4 -0 Vale if Wigan can win 4-0there so can Vale
    That be my team talk
    No of this erm we better defend all 90 
    Shrewsbury are what i've seen of them in game at there home ground and ours no great shakes I'd go as far as saying if they can survive so can we scored 2 other night .
    They only had 4 chances v us scored the lot Say's it all really 
    Home game v these first half we payed them too much respect when none should have being given second half we ran and did OK Balmer and Massey both should have scored with headers and in the end I thought we deserved a point.
    So I don't want us worrying about them 
    Uche to do something special and let's face it our away following deserve it. 
    Time for Moore to show what he can do, like his Prem league manager of the month or his Posh play-off turnround, a forlorn hope I know. At least a bit of pride, too late probably.

    I’m sure this is not the first time it’s been suggested but would having a fan rep/director or two on the board be a way forward to rebuild fan relationships with the owners? Who that might be would be the challenge- elected by 1876 club and season ticket holders (ie club ‘members’) perhaps with annual/seasonal elections? Get the impression our CEO may be up for it but don’t know if anyone else currently on the board would be.
     

    Found this posed by an Everton fan group a few years ago. Food for thought?

     

    Excellent idea, but how many directors as quoted in the article do we have?

  13. Apparently we would be playing better football and having fewer injuries once we replaced the pitch. That was the preferred option  rather than spending money on decent players. Phenomenal.
    Main pitch not replaced, just stage 1 drainage completed. Training pitches require drainage attention to cope with increased rainfall due to climate change.

    I've just been reflecting on how so many of my greatest memories as a Vale fan have involved cup replays.

    The FA Cup giantkillings over Southampton, Derby County and Everton were all achieved via a replay. The 1988 cup run involved two replays while the 1998 penalty shootout loss to Arsenal was also the result of a replay.

    Further back and before my time, the famous run to the semi-final in 1954 also involved a replay win in the early stages. 

    :upthevale:

    At one time there was no limit to the number of replays, at the Liverpool game we were wondering on how to get to Old Trafford for the 2nd Replay and then Thomson ended the dream. It was a wise decision to limit replays to one, probably with the invention of penalty shoot -outs
