It will be interesting to see what the EFL say and do about this. In my view it is worse than what Pope tweeted when he got banned and fined.

I think the main reason we lost this game was because of Darrel's tactics. Not the playing tactics because by and large we have played some great stuff this season with plenty of cracking goals. It is his tactics of having the players time wasting from the very first minute. Yesterday I thought the ref was decent in the first half on most of his decisions but was being intimidated by Sutton's players and fans about the time wast ing from about five minutes in , which is ridiculous. The ref booked three of our players for time wasting and I honestly think he was exasperated by this and the ear bashing about it from Sutton. I think this is why, unconsciously, he favoured the home team with his decisions in the second half, which ended up costing the game. I am sure refs are getting wise to our "gamesmanship" which could eventually cost us a top three place if we end up losing players for totting up offences, so please DC play on the front foot as this Vale team look capable of beating teams with the brand of football you play which is much more pleasing than seeing our players pretend to take a throw in and then leave it for someone else and also seeing you goalkeeper going down as though he has been shot in the leg , only to get up and use that same leg to kick the ball 100yards. So Sutton didn't beat Vale yesterday, Vale beat Vale yesterday. Such a shame in front of so many travelling fans.

Really looking forward this as it will be my 100th away ground I have seen the Vale play at.

When Covolan went down, did anybody else see that a bottle was thrown at him from the fans behind the goal?

I will be surprised if Worrall starts. He went down after a tackle midway through the second half and as we had already made the permitted three substitutes he had to stay on and only contributed with passes and no runs which he would normally do. I expect Politic to start in his place with the rest of the team being the ones who started against FGR.

The ref was ok, although at one free kick given to Vale he counted eight steps to put the wall and when he gave a free kick to FGR he counted eleven steps.

Can we sign Archer from Villa on loan please. It wii probably be the lad from Forest Green Josh March.

Great thanks mate. Will give the programme to Evo on Sunday along with one from Carlisle tomorrow.

Hi Paul (Loggerheads Sage), I have a spare programme from Saturday if you want it. I also have a Northampton one spare if you want that one too.

I Have booked Corporate Jean and they charged have me £10.00 for the car park if that helps.

Mine isn't. Said it was starting at 2.30 but getting nothing.

There is possibly more chance of him going to Colchester. They were apparently going to re-sign Michael Folivi who was with them last season but he got injured the day before he was going to sign, He will be out for a while so Robinson must be back in the frame for them.

Crewe are apparently letting fans in on the 17th July at home to Wolves.

It is alright Phil I picked it up on the official site. Is it possible the Director of communications has been told to get the info out there on all the different media formats. I saw it on the Sentinel website too.

I would expect it to be on the official Port Vale site or the Sentinel where most fans would get their information from.You don't need to get snippy just because you are a twitter nerd.
