Derby C (A) match thread - 2nd March.
Sandyford_Lion replied to ollyandpatch's topic in Port Vale present
Yes, we spend purely to impress ! How else will a premier league club let their kids move down to Vale without seeing the training facilities, changing rooms, nutrition, fitness, schooling, the whole ' we will look after your kids ' process. What for ? Done us good for half a season. Two lads done really well and i am sure we played a small part in their progression. In the meantime ?? Dont mind all the community work and help the club can offer. -

Agree entirely. What worries to more is that our young academy lads are just as much to blame and i worry if this is how we bring them on. Is it now a game of very little contact. Dont get stuck in.We sit back and take the right position but then stand like statues and let teams play through us. Fleetwood second half was a perfect example. No tackles, no blocks just stand in their way. Surprise surprise, four passes and a bit of movement and they are crossing a ball into our box. We see the seasoned pro's do this and we may say they are not trying. Hope the youns uns are not guilty of that too. The fact that Smith doesnt even do this the way he has done for years tells me there is more wrong off the pitch than we know about. Or our players really are poor league two standard players ' with no heart and passion ' -

Like we have said for two years. We have done it on the cheap. Why will anything be different next year ? I know that league 2 will cost a lot less than league 1 to rebuild a complete squad -

IF we were top of the league, his interviews would be no more inspiring. Its how he is. Bit like Rudge in many ways. Its his results that we will judge him on NEXT SEASON -

Thats why Moore has to be given his own chance as a manager of his team. He has to pick 11 plus subs and he does drop senior players but he also needs the players he has got. Next season, if he has financial backing, lets see who he keeps and plays then -

Too true. A shocking squad. We have what we paid for. Cheap rubbish of a squad. Carol told us as good as last year. We have spent all our money. Positives from today ? Clarke gets minutes, so easily pleased. -

Hope Carol has £6 million put aside next year. Moore will need it for a budget -

Will go as far as to say that none of our six youngsters added to the squad this season will be involved in professional football in two years. Cheap option again to include them and wow look at us, we bring our own youngsters through. Flitcroft keeps Carol happy and we , the fans , suffer -

Hes got to put some effort into it to hit someone. No chance -
We also play with 6 at the back and three in midfield. All very narrow in the center which gives us no width and no creativity. As for goals, we havent had goals for two seasons now.

What a joker
-
Yes it was better but really ! The quality on offer from Sang, Loft and even Mighton, it was poor. Then we had Lowe Grant Massey, very poor. Even Chisslett and Ojo didnt have great games
-
Back four yes, Sang and Jones absolutely not. Dont start me on Grant. An embarrasement of a player. Still remember the comments early season about what a player we have signed. D.M. has gone for experience in the main but thats all we have. Same again saturday i believe with one extra session on grass Thursday a.m. for 90 mins to gel
-
Thats why Plant shoud have been in the squad. Yes mistakes in him but he will put the effort in and try to defend. Grant the worst signing for a long time

Pull ya socks up you silly man

Get ready JoeB2. Its going to happen

Pig sick me too. Thanks Carol for agreeing with him and letting it roll on and on. Just to remind you of Flitcroft and the recruitment team. This is what they have given us : Loft, Sang, Uche, Grant, Lowe, Iacovitti, Debrah, Wilson loans : Thomas, Gore, Williams, Weir, Mighten, Williams young lads : McDermott, Shorrock, Walters, Dipepa, Lomax, even Plant. Sorry all too soon for the amount they have played this season. Filling the squad but not good enough yet. Hopefully they will be one day !!

Spot on

Flitcroft OUT Recruitment for the last TWO years : Absolutely shocking. Flitcroft has to be sacked for this alone. Recruitment team !! Disgraceful. Then we insist on the same formation that has not worked. Yes it was good when Arblaster and Devine and Garrity were on song and thats it. [ We were promoted purely on a six month purple spell from Garrity and his goals helped us massively first half of promotion season ] Never seen such an unbalanced squad of players at Port Vale Jones, two year contract. Wilson, not required and then signed in desperation when we could not get anyone. [ we then learn we were chasing Loft all along ] What has our recruitment team given us. Signings : Ripley , Chislett , Leutwiler - Positives Clark - hopefully but jury still out Sang , Grant , Lowe , Iacovitti , Debrah , Uche , Loft , Wilson - Poor. Not strengthened us. Loans : Arblaster , Devine - excellent Thomas , Weir , Lopata , Mighten , Gore , Williams - Poor. Not strengthened us. Youngsters, our own : Plant , Mc'Dermott , Shorrock , Walters , Diepepa , Brazier , Lomax , Good to say that we are bringing players through but are they ready ? Should they be playing now ? NO Only time will tell if they will be successful for us and that is another two years minimum. Not strengthened us. A complete farce and Flitcroft is responsible for everything football related. Carol GET FLITCROFT OUT OF OUR CLUB NOW
