  1. That's a really important qualifier for us short sighted fans 🙂
  2. Who knows whether this is the right appointment? Definitely fits the demands of most fans it seems. No doubt that DF and CS have gone for the best they can get. Instantly, and pretty much inevitably, previous club's fans jump all over it and gleefully vent their spleen about DM's shortcomings. We can only watch and see how things pan out. There are no guarantees, but imo, the club have given it their best shot, so deserve some credit.
  3. Good to see that we're climbing one table at least!
  4. Probably already been said many times, both implicitly and explicitly. My twopenneth, for what it's worth, is that Darren Moore strikes me as a very straightforward, no nonsense type of character. He would therefore be the ideal foil for Flitcroft's fantasy land ideas, and the two might actually dovetail very neatly. No doubt in my mind that the club needs someone to keep Flitcroft under control, which is logically a bit bizarre, but it's where they are.
  5. Well that would be a sensible move.
  6. Unless... DF has seen the light.
  7. Vale were a basket case club for years. Neglected badly. The last 5 years have seen ambitious attempts to rectify the situation. Resources have been spread across, imo, too many areas too quickly, with on field resources suffering. My point is that it wasn't, and still isn't, a good place for an inexperienced manager.

    Blue cards

    Not any more it seems 🤔
  9. It was before the end of the deadline. Expect MB to pick it up at least after the game on Saturday, or next week at the latest. He said he would be producing an edition tonight
  10. On another note, I see that Harry McKirdy is back at Swindon on loan.
  11. What's this pace thing that you speak of? 🤔
  12. I like the look of the 4 incomers. Arguably all better at the start of their Vale careers than if compared with the starting point of those they've replaced. Slotting in will be much harder, as the team they are joining is much weaker than the team that started the season. Consequently, I fear that they may struggle. Like most, I'm concerned about the striker and lwb situation. I think all the outgoings are good moves on a variety of ways. Overall, I'm falling into the camp of a little too much attention on the future, and a need to focus more on now on the pitch. I just hope that we survive, but have no great expectations.
  13. Made BBC Breakfast News this morning
  14. No idea whether this takeover has any truth in it. Logically, it should be a game changer. The Shanahan's have done a fantastic job stabilising the club. However, it is clear that the limit is for the club to be self sustaining, which would be brilliant. I assume that the money available to any RW initiative would put the club on a completely different level. Step One: Rebuild the Railway Stand 😄
  15. Could do with some upfront cash to secure league one status now.
  16. It'll be a mud bath 😄
  17. Here's hoping for a repeat of the next 15 years then 😎
  18. Starter tonight, playing left midfield in a 442 formation.
  19. Attracting top quality young players on loan is a highly impressive achievement. Even moreso when considering the not too distant club history. I also think balancing this with the many other factors that have been discussed on here in the last few days will require further very astute management. Style of play and the short term nature of loanees being two that immediately spring to mind.
  20. Oh dear. He passes back and sideways. Won't please the faithful!
  21. Nail on head 👍 In a very even, often bland game of football, dictated by the same tactics that all coaches are drilled in, it's these marginal differences that make a difference, and provide some much needed entertainment. Uche provides it.
