So we wont get the question about cars blocking drives. Feel like we are missing out. 🤣

It's now working. Says they are on stage, they must be under the table then. They have appeared.

Is that in the first 2 minutes? Erm🤣

Willow - Good luck in finding your next club. Shame you picked up injuries all the time for Vale, as I loved watching you when you were on the pitch. Defenders and midfield opposition knew you were good and took chunks out of you to try and stop your runs, touches and flicks to Vale players. Thank you for the memories. But due to the injuries you became a luxury player Vale just could not accommodate due to the poor recruitment process over the 2 years.

The retained list says it all. Another season of relegation battles are on the way - please prove me and others wrong for thinking this. But hay Carol gets Community Award Div 2 for her mantle piece. Then Conference Community Club Award.

This is Vale. When do we go with just the normal 🤣 Probably end up with 3 goalkeeper coaches and then the extra 50 staff behind the scenes to look after them. 😉

That could work, a player/coach. Leutwiler must be fed up with not getting game time and being able to show what he can do to other teams. The retained list was a good chance to get rid of some of the players who have not shown any spirit - but no not the Vale - another mistake which I hope does not bite them when we go down next season with keeping them. Same silly mistakes, not tackling players, not marking runners and just no fight in them. Just hope that DM and Co have a plan for better players and they are demoted to squad water bottle carriers.

Surprised its not out today. Get all the ones on contracts in one conference room and then DM can say - you lot - not in my plans - find another club. Then go to the other conference room - you lot don't have contracts and are not being kept on - find another club. Then those not in either conference room - can be told you are in my plans and being kept on or those with contracts finishing - we are offering you new contracts and we want you to stay at the club. 🤣 Saves all the little individual chats with them.

Depends on the players he has come into. They make individual mistakes during the game - he can't help that when they cross the line apart from you did this, don't, do this. However, if they keep making those mistakes then not even the best manager can do anything with them. Judge him this year and hopefully Carol will back him and he can rebuild his own squad.

That is what happens if you actually sort out transfers in the Jan window. You survive the drop. Fraudcroft didn't and we paid the price. Got what we deserved.

Well we didn't lose the game. Thank god the match is over. Wonder if Houston listened to the full match or went back bed. 🤣 Bring on the close season and how DM builds next years squad. Will Carol back him with finances or just cut the budget back again. This side needs better players, players with fight and character, not the bottlers, wimpy players we currently have till the retained list comes out.

Carol get used to the lower gates next season and where the away teams bring double figure fans. Only chance of bigger home support depends on the team put together and if we look like bouncing back.

Mitch Clarke about to come on - probably get injured and off again. 🤣

If it's one of the teams with big squads then may be not, but smaller squads then yes. All depends on how the team view him and his potential now and what it could be in the future. Only he can make the decision and then live by it. Good luck to him if he goes and we will support him if he stays. The joys of close season, who is going and who is staying. Will the young players sign new deals and stay with the Vale.

Thing is this is generally what happens to the young players snapped up by the big teams, if they don't break into the first team straight away, then they go into the reserves/development team and then either do it or just bounce around further down the leagues.

Sums up the recruitment team and fraudcroft thoughts. That is why we are down - it was sihte.

Uche missing a sitter with his head. Come on Vale.

Sounds like DM will be clearing most of them out and then rebuilding a new side around the youngsters here already. The joy of close season, looking for the retained list and thinking what - why let him go, you kept them and then wondering who will be coming in.

Then its the close season wondering if its another season of no strikers and then panic buys. 😭 At least we know that wont happen at Vale Park now we have DM. Just the worry some of the dead wood will still be here come the start of the season.🤣

Come on watch it all - why should you be lucky. We are listening to it here and we are all thinking I could be watching the paint dry or the grass grow outside. 🤣

Depends what his agent has filled his head with. But yes, get that contract signed and develop at Vale.

Wonder which Funso will be on the pitch today. Come on Vale. Mixed feelings like Cambs probably has if we take them down with us. Cambridge used to be the Wife's mum and dads team. But if they go down with us, we can go down there for the away game and put flowers on their graves. 😉

Oh slack marking just outside the box. Oh we haven't heard that much over the last 2 seasons.

Never too early. Got up in the early hours in sandy clims to listen to Vale. 🤣

Fans could throw rotten tomatoes at him. 🤪
