You can say that again. 1 league goal each with 1 game to go. 1 <ovf censored> goal. Incredible stuff.

I am very angry at some of Carol's awful decisions because there was an air of arrogance to some of them, but, I'm trying not to be angry at her, just disappointed. However, she's fronted up, accepted responsibility, apologised, and committed to spending next season. We're already losing £65,000 a week. Given how she's been literally crying at Vale Park in recent weeks I would imagine today will have been horrendous for her, and, particularly in view of the funding she's put into the club, I do genuinely feel sorry for her despite none of us needing to be in this situation if she could 1) Be less tunnel visioned and 2) just learn to listen. It is not for me to say but I believe she's also been ill over the last year, adding to my empathy. It's a nuanced situation where she's <ovf censored> up and created expensive lessons for herself - hopefully she's learned them. There is much in her favour though. I think the anger should be directed at the horrific recruitment record and the number of dosser players who don't care. I'm actually looking forward to Cambridge as it's the last time some of them will embarass the badge.

A message from Carol Shanahan OBE | News | Port Vale WWW.PORT-VALE.CO.UK Can't argue with that.

🚨True fan alert 🚨 If you want to go watch an already relegated side try and avoid the 14th home defeat out of 23 this season, crack on. Thousands won't.

He followed that up with "the players will keep on fighting" Who does he think he's <ovf censored> kidding?

3 "disappointeds" in the managers interview so far. I'm so inspired by his oration.

We've been relegated in reality since the 3-0 away at Fleetwood. This has been so long and drawn out I'm oddly not even particularly bothered today, it's not a shock. It goes back further than Fleetwood though, holistically. We've been relegated since Flitcroft appointed a coach into his first ever club managerial job and then did nothing in the next two transfer windows.

Who's more likely to have initiated a publicity stunt, him or Carol?

Garrity and Chislett deserve clapping. The rest can <ovf censored> off.

What difference would that make?

We have centre midfielders, why would we need strikers? Trust the process.

All of them, except Garrity, Chislett and Dipepa, and maybe 3 of the other kids. Leutwiler hasn't ever disgraced himself either. The other 28 GET OUT.

I called it in Feb. He should have been put on compassionate leave in the April and returned to management when ready.

Burton winning 2-0. Good thing we didn't go for it at Reading, they might have walloped us.

Burton beating Reading 🤣

I'm pretty sure Dipepa wasn't on the first version at all, on the bench now. I see our paperwork is as well organised as our recruitment team was.

That line up tweet has been deleted. If we've forfeited it'll only end up 3-0 that way 😀

And the next bit of that press release was Crosby saying "His versatility will give us options" They knew what they were doing. Utility square pegs in round holes.

I'd forgotten about that Barnsley goal on the break when he just gave up and started walking instead of challenging the ball. <ovf censored> raging.

I think I counted 15, had to close my eyes while cringing for much of it though. Not going to count how many points were dropped here as it’ll make me too angry at the negligent, incompetent recruitment over the last 18 months.

Just seen a video compilation on twitter of all the goals conceded this season with Sang directly involved. It's over 2 minutes long 🤣 Outstanding recruitment.

Play 90 minutes?

Angry statements from Peterborough, Tranmere, Accrington, Exeter, Grimsby, Crawley, York, Chester, Eastleigh, Dorking and Farnborough so far, + Millwall’s manager criticising it in interview. Also seen one non-league club say they won’t enter the cup next season. We’ve got to get on this tomorrow surely?

We’ll be in the same league as them after a horror season, why would they leave with the state Vale are in?
