You can't polish a <ovf censored>. And all of you who think Darren Moore could should give your heads a wobble. I'll judge him with half a season with his own players - assuming Carol allows him to bring them in.

I don't have crystal balls so I can't see what's coming.

So are we now, 2-0. 🤨

I think we should enjoy him while we can. He'll be off to a bigger club come the summer.

And Chelt are back in front.

BBC Midlands Today have just showcased our fight for L1 survival. So that's us down then.

Is anyone from Portly Vale (haven't heard of them for ages) still around?

Wrong Loft. 🤣

THE GREAT ESCAPE is on.......

Classic comment on RS: 'Hell has got a bit colder because Ryan Loft has scored' 🤣

How about Darren as DoF and he gets to pick his replacement?

David Flitcroft shortcomings underlined by out-of-depth Port Vale unit FOOTBALLLEAGUEWORLD.CO.UK This is quite a succinct summing up of what we've had to endure this season.

Vale have shown enough willingness to play good possession based football, going forward, in recent games to be hopeful. But then they concede cheaply - particularly from set pieces - and spend the rest of the games fire fighting. I'm sure DM knows this and will be trying to counter it in training. I just don't think they have enough in this squad to turn it round.

He's obviously up to it at U17 level, given his two goals off the bench for England. But coping with hairy arsed L1 defenders is quite another thing. I wouldn't want him to be whacked too hard before he reaches his physical capability to stand up to that sort of treatment.

Given Vale's record of making appointments without competition it wouldn't surprise me. I worked most of my life in the public sector and if the bodies I worked for had adopted recruitment policies like Vale's they would have found themselves in trouble with the Government. Getting back to Patrick, he couldn't hack it as CEO so does he even have the experience required for a DoF? Horses for courses; we need someone with extensive knowledge of the role in a club at Vale's level.
