  1. We can all be guilty of over reaction and knee jerk statements. It's hurt us all this collapse from October onwards.

    However I'm really struggling to comprehend that some of these players will be ok in League 2. 

    They are mentally weak, indeed physically weak. No backbone or guts.

    It's highly likely due to the ludicrous contracts that we are lumbered with some. There has got to be a lot of wriggle room for Moore otherwise unless we get 6 or 7 new starters next season we could be in for a bumpy ride.

    The retained list is on the website. Not unexpected. At L2 level this is a competitive squad as we have seen when playing L2 teams last season. Good idea to play players in their best positions - such as Sang. But with young players coming through that is pretty much a full squad. So my question is what trading is likely to occur as we all know where the weaknesses are even if the intrinsic squad is not too bad.  

    I don't class a team where the majority of the fanbase are resigned to defeat as soon as we go 1-0 down as competitive Warren. 

    Quite the opposite, weak underbelly and gutless are more apt.

    If a core of 5 of these losers are in our starting X1 next season we have real issues. Everyone knows who the exceptions are.

  3. Just now, Guppys left peg said:

    Picked up an injury during training otherwise would have played from what Moore tonld Baggers in The Valiant at the weekend. Ticks all our boxes then.

    Ahh cheers . Thought it odd.

    How many of ours get injured in training or during the warm up. Mental .

    Hope Crawley get lost. One of the worst away days I can ever imagine. At least at MK Dons the ground is decent when you get there. 

    Only thing I'd say about Crawley is I've been 3 times. 3 wins.

    Mk would be up there again next season I'd prefer them to go up.

    If Crewe stay down and Solihull come up it is a great league in terms of local away games, shame Burton somehow stayed up or that would have added another in the mix.

    That said, if we have a promotion/play off campaign its enjoyable, if we dont its not. I can't say I have enjoyed the last 18 months in a higher league so wont be a high bar to set to enjoy this more.

     

    Personally I never enjoy Crewe or Walsall. Horrible games.

    Solihull be good. Depending on ticket allocation. Looks as though it could be about 1400.

  6. So currently we have.

    Cheltenham, Fleetwood, Vale, Carlisle. 

    Barrow, Bradford, Wimbledon, Walsall, Gillingham, Harrogate, Notts County, Morecambe, Tranmere, Accrington ,Newport, Swindon, Salford,Grimsby, Colchester and Chesterfield. 

    3 of Mk Dons,Doncaster, Crewe or Crawley. 

    1 of Solihull or Bromley. 

    It's a grim list. Good games with atmosphere pretty thin on the ground.

    Notts County and Chesterfield be decent away games for Vale support. 

    Big big summer coming up.

    Fund a promotion push? In the 4th division? We managed that when the club was in admin under Adams! 
     

    Not going for promotion in the 4th division is financial suicide anyway. We can’t afford not to. Years in the 4th division seriously harmed the club last time. 

    Be ok Bromley will bring 86 with them if they go up. That's a couple of grand in the kitty.

    Remember we were going for Quality not Quantity , whatever happened to that ?. Combine Uche and Loftys wages and we might get a decent, goalscoring striker.

    That was allegedly our mantra.

    Instead we've basically had average to poor squad fillers who end up playing 25 plus games. Bit us on the backside.

    I've got nothing against Smith personally and I don't actively want anyone punch anyone .

    Just going on the fact there always falling out .

    To be honest he as being one of the better players and that worries me deeply .

    I'm fed up of the lot of them be honest. 

    Yes there's being worse for sure .

    Let's agree to disagree. 

    Folk cannot stand me I get that (its no big deal I'm.not on here to be popular I'm on here to say what I see if I'm the only one seeing it then really my opinion is of no substance or of no value ).

    Like I say football's a game of high passion for me I haven't spent 32 years of my life encouraging Vale, to the core to be accepting of the current squad we have on the pitch now .

    Falling out with folk is fair enough if justified ,it's not if folk are having a pop at me just because they have a different view ,ok at times what I type is out of order and I apologise for that ,but it usually comes when someone's wound me up to a point that I cannot stop myself and maybe I should 

    If you go every game and come away and go this player always plays well and throws himself at the ball ,and the opposition are not scoring what I call easy goals (where there is no one actually with in a yard of them )then you can justify the goals conceded 145 in two seasons (could be more could be less )I think I when i read folk praising I think how bizarre that's just me though fella.

     

    Mate people can stand you. You make plenty of posts. Be no good on here if we all agreed.

    You're passionate, keep posting.

    I do actually wonder if, as unlikely as it sounds, he was signed based on his reputation and then when they saw him in training realised he wasn't up to it and sent him back - sums up our transfer policy if so.

    Really odd one wasn't it. Especially as he's playing week in week out for Liverpool reserves or whatever they are these days.

    The 5 loanees in January turned out to be horrendous signings .

    Deklan Wynne hands down! 
     

    Garrity or Chislet surely, both had good seasons in a poor team. I’d give it Ethan myself. His assists return edges it for me 

    I'm wondering if Rhys Williams just pips Wynne. 

    Never saw him have a bad game.

     Ive seen every game loft has played and I haven't seen him get anywhere near any crosses, he doesn't strike me as that type of player.

    I watched him quite closely ( I know that sounds weird ) early on maybe October time at a home game. 

    Never ever showed desire to get on the end of crosses and seemed to be on the edge of the box just meandering instead of at the business end.
