Mellor!

I hope the players are more lively than than that pint!

Doesn't even need to be an early goal. Just an early massive tackle. Let the fans know they're up for it. Get it right up em!

I'd forgot about him tbh. Take Smudge out then.

Not sure if people have watched the pre-match interview, but they really should. It's genuinely one of the best I've ever heard as a Vale fan. I've pinched this off Bagger's blog which is an extract from it. If this doesn't get everyone up for Saturday, I don't know what will. Saturday is do or die in my opinion. We need everyone, fans and players on it from minute one. No one leave anything out there. “When this place is in full voice, it is a fantastic stadium to be in. Vale fans, you have been magnificent since I have arrived. I thank them all personally for the reception they gave me and the support they are giving me now. “This is a personal message to all of them. Please come and help us, we need you. Do it more than anything for the badge. You have supported this football club through years, through generations of your families. “This badge you see me now touching – do it for the badge. The club needs you. You have been there through thick and thin for this football club and, no doubt whatever happens on Saturday, you will come here again and be in full voice. You are a credit. “One thing I have said to the players is the one consistent is that Vale fans will turn up, it is their club and they are passionate. They will show that. “What we have to do is match on the pitch that energy in the stadium. Saturday gives us that opportunity. “If there is a fan sitting next to you and they are quiet, man or woman, boy or girl, give them a little nudge and get them to be in full voice. That would be greatly appreciated.”

I've not really said anything so far but keep seeing the recurrence of people "having their belly tickled" "smoke blown up their arse" "not asking the hard questions that fans want asking". Bede, Dicko, Tony and myself were there as part of B&G. If you think we are the type of people that would have our bellies tickled and not ask the hard questions, then I'm not sure how to change your mind, epecially people like Spunkers who have seen us on multiple protests, meetings, etc... Collectively we have got rid of two lots of disgraceful owners, yet went into the meeting to offer an olive branch to the club to try and resolve current tensions. This is because the Shanahan's, in my opinion, truly have the best wishes of the club at heart and it is not them that is the problem. We want to work with them to try and sort this current discontent and anger out. Of course the main topic was the director of football. But do you think you can really go in and tell Carol to get rid and walk out? The meeting would be over in an instant. The club now realise how deep rooted this is and they have to try and alleviate the tension. How they do that is up to them. We know what we want to happen, but Carol owns the club and we can't hold her by gun point, but we can try and make her realise the massive feeling of discontent. What the club do now is their decision. We have started the conversation. They know how the fans feel, trust us. Now while the club decide the next steps, the only thing we can do is get behind the team wholeheartedly on Saturday, like we have all season and try and retain our League 1 status.

I am unsure why you think no one was contacted. Are you part of the Supporters Club committee or Black and Gold? If the meeting was called by the two groups and not the club, surely the people in the committee and B&G group knew about it? You can't expect them to consult every fan and everyone who has put on a black and gold scarf.

Also bought in Justin Miller, Craig Rocastle and Shane Tudor...

Plus we have the likes of Burton, Fleetwood, Cheltenham and Cambridge distorting the markets by bringing in multiple strikers in January. It's just not fair.

Hi Andy. Hope you've had a nice couple of weeks off. Been abroad or owt? Anything job wise in the pipeline?

I'll renew mine. Football is my release. Vale are my club. I've no interest in removing Carol from the club and she isn't monetarily profiting from the club, so withholding funds will only hurt the club and the team further. I held money from Smurthwaite and MOLD, but this is a completely different battle imo.

Ask the players the same. They chose the first option in November. You can shout all you want, but you'd get as much success digging up 11 corpses and cheering them on.

Flitcroft out

I bet on things that will make the loss hurt less. You don't want to know how much I put on Masfield at Wembley...

Exactly what we need, but absolutely no chance of getting.

Big clubs distorting the market again mate

Without meaning to brag, I got 20/1 before the Pompey game

Wyke had a catastrophic cardiac arrest not too long ago. While he's a very good player, it's also a very big gamble. For every Eriksen there's a Tom Lockyer. That's obviously if there is any legs in the rumour...

That definitely wasn't him in the window. My eyes aren't that bad

Thank god

Well we've been absolutely fantastic since last January. I suppose you win then. All hail king Flickers.

If we don't sign anyone else we'll be in the exact same position as when he started at the end of this season...
