    Cambridge (H) Match Thread - 27th April

    in Port Vale present

    Posted

    Just got me and my daughter’s ticket for Saturday. Said we would make the last two home games even if we are down.

    The season has been a shambles and everyone one at the club is in some way to blame but that’s the Vale.

    Players, managers, coaches and owners come and go - it’s the fans that stay.

    Hope to see a win and stick two fingers up to this wretched season. After last week’s dissatisfaction now anticipated hope for L2.

    It’s never easy supporting the Vale is it.

    Role on Saturday

    The players need to take a long hard look at themselves. For a fan on minimum wage has to work over 2 hours to pay for a match day ticket. A few pints before the game and a pie another 2 hours. Travel to and from say an hour so over 1/2 day of hard work to come to the match. For what - to see this I can’t care attitude from overpaid and under talented privileged bunch of so called phenomenal footballers.

    Take a long hard look into those stands your not fit to wear the shirt. Even if your not good enough for L1 least show some fight.

    For all the excuses and reasons worst Vale side I’ve seen in 40 years.

    Don’t really blame DM as not his team and this team is poor end of.

    Think he will stay and hopefully put together a promotion pushing team.

    Recruitment since promotion has been awful boarding on total incompetence.

    Only Uche, Chiswell and Dipepa earned their pay yesterday. Judgement still out on Ripley - two relegations in two seasons - some good saves but when things go wrong all he does is argue with players around him and blames them - not a team player me thinks.

    Just got back to Sheffield what can I say - Real Madrid first half Get Real the second half.

    Although we are not mathematically relegated we are mentally and physically. We are just not a team when things start to go wrong like it did today.

    Will be down for Cambridge match but we will already be relegated I fear.

    Not mad just disappointed this team is not a Vale side of old.

    Travel down from Sheffield and let’s see where this coming Saturday takes us. Last chance saloon time me thinks but that’s the Vale for you.

     

    Daughter is buzzing just hope the lads put a shift in deserving of the fans and the shirt they wear.

     

    See you on Saturday and let’s hope for a win.

    Flitcroft gone

    The DoF decision can wait till next season - we have 9 games left to save ourselves from the more than likely scenario of relegation.

    We have got rid of AC, got rid of DF (who I think has not had a good transfer window since we came into L1 to be honest and his position had become untenable) so now lets see what our players and DM can do. As for Carol, yes she has made mistakes but we are in a better position with her than most clubs. 

    My youngest asked when are we going to the Vale next (4 hour round trip), I said why we keep losing, she replied but you said we support the team through thick and thin, we are VTID. This made me think since '84 when I first went on a Tuesday evening standing the the railway paddock I knew each season some teams get promoted, some teams stay in the league and some get relegated. Lets face it I've seen quite a few relegations / promotions since '84 and always accepted the possible three outcomes. Taking my daughter these last few seasons has made me connect back with the club and I have thoroughly enjoyed travelling to Vale park and banter with my fellow fans (every home game is an away day as I say).

    Due to other commitments I can only go to the last two Saturday home matches - hoping we have a chance to stay up but if we are relegated so be it; its the chance we take each season. I will be there for Port Vale and the fans- not the players (they have let the fans down massively I feel in their performances and attitude), nor the owners. Players, Managers, DoFs and owners come and go but the fans and the club remain season after season with hopes and aspirations like every football fan.

    So for the 9 games left lets hope DM can motivate our players,  - they owe us more than 9 games of good performances this season no matter what the excuses are; they are supposed to be professionals.

    Think we all need to hope and get behind the team now - 3 points on Saturday would be a massive boost for all concerned.

    Good luck and safe travels to fans home and away - see you on the 13th April - Until then UTV.

    Shrewsbury (H) match thread - 9th March

    in Port Vale present

    Posted · Edited by sheffieldclayhead

    7 from safety with 11 to play   - current form 1 point from 21 with the so called new manager bounce.

    We are down - players have no confidence, club losing direction and fan trust. DF  and CS playing fiddles whist Rome burns.

    Worst season I can remember I have been through relegation a few times since ‘86 but this season we are gutless with no clue or direction.

    Been heading this way since Colin Garlic suddenly left and DF seemed to take over. Patrick is no Colin and DF a total fraud just look at Bury.

    Anyway resigned to relegation only silver lining if we do CS wakes up smells the roses and boots DF out of our club.

    This is s**t - 1 out of a possible 21 maybe AC was not the problem let’s try to guess who are/is 🤔🤔🤔🤔

    This will be seriously denting big Dazz overall career win ratio. 

    We are down - we are our own worst enemy as a team. No strikers no defence FFS what did DF think would happen this season.

    My twopenny worth :

    It's hopefully great news for Carol and her family and should see them and future generations extremely 'comfortable'.

    I would like to think that all of the employees of Synectics will be looked after and remain employed (assuming of course that that is their wish).

    IF the Shanahans decide to invest further funds into Port Vale FC I hope that we all accept that there are limits, and that anything they do invest is done so with the future of Port Vale in mind, whether that be short-term investments, long-term, on the playing staff, infrastructure or whatever.

    If they choose NOT to invest, sell up and retire, I for one would not blame them in the least.

    Finally, I would like to thank Carol, Kevin and co. for what they have achieved thus far and I trust that whatever they do from now on, they are and forever will be in my debt.

      

     

    Well said and for all those wishing for Carol, Kevin and co. to sell up and go over this disaster of a season just remember for every one Carol, Kevin and co. there are at least ten Smurfs out there ready and willing to F**k it up more and run it just for them.

    The league doesn’t lie. We are where we are by our own merits.

    I hope DM works miracles over the next 14 games and we survive but realistically I can’t see that happening with how we are playing.

    Recruitment has been poor and if DF had final say over players then if relegated he has not done his job well enough so he had to go. No way will he go before the end of the season  so no point in calling for it.

    The team so are playing woeful this needs to be addressed if some are not playing because they don’t want to put the young ones in. All must remember relegation’s on CV’s don’t look good whoever is to blame. If not for the shirt they wear play for personal pride.

    Calling for Carol to go - unwise as nobody is queuing up to buy us. She saved the Vale last time and lightning very rarely strikes twice in the same place. Extra investment yes we need it and we may be able to convince but at all out buy out - very much doubt it.

    The next 14 games - 42 points on offer is our season now. Leave the inquests till after and however hard it is we must support the team.

    We have been here before and no doubt we will be here again - that is the Vale. 

    It has been a very disappointing season the striker issue being diabolical and the main reason why we are in this mess in my opinion - but that’s old news everyone knows this. A out of contract end of playing career out and out striker maybe the way to go - worth a punt as they say.

    If relegated we miss derby matches against Crewe and more likely Stoke very hard to take and if that can’t motivate our players god knows what will.

    Looking to Fleetwood now FFS a win or at least a draw please give us something to build on.
