Moore has been dealt an awful hand so it’s difficult to judge him this season. But even so he has made absolutely no difference. In fact the form is probably worse.

Thankfully wasn’t in the office today so didn’t have a decision to make about jumping on the Central Line for a couple of stops and an evening of misery. Not even sure I’ll bother streaming it either. All feels very pointless at the moment when it comes to the Vale. -
I wouldn’t let Flitcroft near the rebuild of the paddock bogs let alone a rebuild of the squad for next season. Sadly we are lumbered with a significant number of this lot for another year thanks to him. Given that state of affairs the first priority next season will be staying in the Football League.

What’s the point moaning? If the owners can’t see it by now they never will. See you all in the North West Counties in a couple of years time.

That was a horror show of a 2nd half. Absolutely no impact from changes made by the manager.

Then as per my original post, you can count me out. I think my first game was as a 4 or 5 year old coming up to 35 years ago. This is comfortably in the top 3 worst squads I can remember. It is a completely dereliction of duty from the owners to not hold the man responsible to account. They have done some wonderful things for our football club. Appointing David Flitcroft is not one of them.

If David Flitcroft is responsible for assembling a squad for League Two you can count me out. This is now beyond insanity.

Whilst the SCMP rules theoretically limit spending, the definition of relevant turnover includes provision for cash and equity injections. As such an owner can inject cash or equity, subject to the SCMP rules, and “inflate” the relevant turnover figure to fund higher player salaries. In the instance of cash, the rules require a guarantee that the amount injected is not repayable. It is undoubtedly how some clubs in recent years have been able to compete way beyond their natural resource base.

But the recruitment team are going a great job and we have a good squad. 🤪

Feel marginally more optimistic after that tonight. Obviously disappointing to lose but we looked far more like a professional football team tonight than we have for a long while imo. Decent structure, played some ok stuff at times and on another day probably take a point but they’ve scored a worldie and then finished us when the game got stretched. With more time training and playing that system you would hope we improve but we still look short going forward no matter what training ground work we do. No complaints on the effort levels tonight but the reality is that 4 or 5 just aren’t good enough. That’s not their fault, it is what it is. There is only one man I hold responsible for the mess that we are in.
-
If that is a back 4 I might just cry tears of happiness.

Pretty much the same side I would try. I’d perhaps swap wings for Chis and Mighten to let Chis cut in on his right.

Carlisle, Fleetwood, Vale and either Shrews or Cheltenham. Fancy Charlton will have a run of 3 or 4 games at some point to pull them out of the mire.

Blackpool must have been bad at their place then.
