    Why???

    Exactly, Rudgie had his success by going out most nights and scouting players. You can't expect a man of 80 to be doing this. For me the modern day system of recruiting players from stats on a players database is lazy and ineffective. Get rid of the D of F role bring in a chief scout/s. Judge players on a number of performances. The stats should only be considered as an addition to how he performs in matches. A friend of mine who referees local league was recently reffing a league teams under 16 game. The players were all wearing performance monitoring vests. Pitchside was a guy with a laptop monitoring all the players. During the game he was giving information on what minutes he should be taking players off. Is this really needed in Youth football. We see this happening week in and week out in league football matches and we have seen ourselves how this has at times had a negative impact on the game. I think too much emphasis is put on these stats. The manager and his coaching staff should be the ones who decide when a player needs to come off.
  2. I doubt we have any realistic chance of staying up this season, but I would like us to go down fighting. Just for my sanity I would like to see 2 or 3 wins at home before the close. Hopefully starting Saturday it will cheer me up before I jet off to Cape Verde for some R and R in the sun.
  3. Sand? I thought the pitch drainage had negated the use of sand ๐Ÿ˜
  4. Actually looking at his stats, he has scored just 29 league goals in14 seasons so looking at that plus his injury record maybe not a good option. Averages 2 goals per season.
  5. He surely must have been worth trying to sign, If we didn't at least approach him or his agent that would be shocking. ๐Ÿ˜ฒ
  6. Absolutely spot on. Too many people spill their bile on social media platforms without really thinking about the consequences, mostly with very little background knowledge of what they are talking about. Its not acceptable that people are abused like this. Carol is a good person and Port Vale has been a huge project for her. Has she made mistakes, yes she has and has admitted as such, but she doesn't deserve some of the comments I have heard about her on social media platforms. This week I have heard some awful comments about our supporter representatives who attended the meeting. All these guys, Bede, Mark, Paul and all the other supporters there work extremely hard for their groups and for the club. All genuine guys who all have the same concerns as the rest of us. All the same they were derided by a section of fans on message boards without waiting to find out the facts. It does make me cringe sometimes but i am grateful we have these kind of people in place. As always UTV.
  7. As Sean Bean would say. DO IT FOR BURSLEM ๐Ÿ˜€
  8. All the groups you mentioned all represent different groups of Vale supporters. Inviting all the groups gave the chance for a broader spectrum of Vale fans to be represented and to be heard. I don't see anything wrong in that. It is not possible to get every supporter involved as I am sure you realise, but those groups will have a good idea of their members concerns from feedback and from all the views on social media.
  9. Well having 9 forwards on the books hasn't really worked for them as they have scored less than us.
  10. Agree, no one can deny his passion and a shame he feels he has to withdraw. I know he wears his heart on his sleeve and after reflection I suspect he will be back. Phil if you do see this post, don't let the minority get to you. You can always block certain posters who you feel are not worth the hassle. COME BACK SOON mucka๐Ÿ‘
  11. Even Gayle has scored now. That shows how bad we have become.
