I can understand their anger though. Var seems to go against the same clubs match after match. Wolves have similarly suffered. The liverpool game ( ref gave the ball to liverpool when forest were in possession), ivan toney moving the ball for that free kick etc. One of those penalties was a stonewaller. When you are fighting like hell against relegation ( unlike us), it must make you as mad as hell. Absolute incompetence

Don't think Coventry can complain about var. Their " goal" WAS offside, narrowly, but offside. The handball for the equaliser was much more subjective. Almost identical to the forest incident , which wasn't given . If the 2 referee's had given opposite decisions, I don't think var would have overturned those decisions. Obviously Coventry aren't used to var and would have won without it, but they knew it would be used. If the offside goal would have stood, would that be right, would there have been an outcry? I suspect not because the opposition was Manchester United.

That was my first thought, but on reflection, I think that would be very disrespectful to Ben and Chis, who both got double figures from midfield in a very poor team. Chis also got ( I think) 7 assists. If only we had 1 striker who could match those figures.

Summer transfer rumours and speculation
Loggerheads Sage replied to werstayinup's topic in Port Vale present
I've thought that for the last 3 windows!!! Got to be right one day, hopefully -
He was right though, we DID need to be the fittest club in the league. Unfortunately we were probably the unfittest.

No, you're not saying we played a player out of position surely? Lol. We never do that -

2 nil up v stevenage in the cup and lost. Not 4 2, but lost, cost us mega bucks. Will never know re Crosby, but I do think the players were fighting for him. Real culprit, well we all know the answer to that one. The January transfer window was just unreal

Always seems to be to be many many more stewards than there used to be. Probably even more post Ted

Peterborough (A) match thread - 10th March
Loggerheads Sage replied to robf's topic in Port Vale present
That was my first thought . Hoping it's tactical to nullify them -
That was the scoreboard, not the pitch. But the capital costs still have to be repaid every month Pitch was that bad , it simply had to get sorted.

Smurf interest in Tranmere
Loggerheads Sage replied to man in the pub's topic in Other football issues
I've no knowledge, but why would he have put that amount in without control of the club? Doesnt make sense. If he is after them, I agree, that would be a disaster for a decent club. Would the EFL allow him to own another club after the disgraceful way he acted with us? Who knows with that shower of <ovf censored> -
I think that's right, I just wonder about the players reactions. There seemed almost an anger from some when Crosby went, as if to say it's not him that should have gone. There did appear a distinct lack of fight, unlike now. So from that way of looking at it, it could be partly down to him belatedly going. Doing much better now, just hamstrung by the lack of quality up front. With a decent striker, it would have been 6 points , but 1, from the last 2 games. Still struggling to get my head around 6 games v shrews, Cheltenham and Fleetwood, bringing just 1 point. 2 wins, 2 draws and 2 defeats would have seen us nearly in mid table. Shocking really. 3 sides in the bottom 6, excluding us

Well, I did say national league or L2. I don't know what the financial risk is as I'm not privy to Wilson's contract details. I'd assumed that as he was released and had not got fixed up, we negotiated a more realistic deal, along the lines of a low basic wage along with a higher play/ goals bonus? Could be wrong because, as I said , I have no information whatsoever as to his contract details. Some sublime moments off him, but I think this ship has sailed now personally
-
Surely he will get fixed up at national league level, if not L2?
-
I think that's spot on, except Shrewsbury already have 45 points and only need 1 win. It's us or Cambridge I feel. I have a horrible feeling some of those ridiculous dropped points, e.g. Fleetwood will do for us in the end, sadly. Hope to God I'm wrong

Bristol Rovers (H) match thread - 29th March
Loggerheads Sage replied to robf's topic in Port Vale present
How sure are we on this? I seem to remember the last default the EFL didn't deduct any points, said it would be unfair??, and fined the owner - who no doubt didn't pay -
And making the same mistakes in January 2024 has totally killed us
-
Good points, but I think the " restructuring " of the budget In January 2023, ie deciding not spend/improve and wait for the summer had more affect. Coupled with the unfortunate events around DC. God how we have missed him!!

He's on a wind up mate. Ignore

That's not tenable -
Surely even nice port vale couldn't have lost money on the robbie gig could they? Any other club would have made a small fortune
-
Holt at Accy reckoned a million. My guess, 3 quarters, including away support. Depends how we do in L2 of course

Minimum of 2 goals conceded in every game, and against mostly poor opponents
