I think the tweet with the sideswipe at Conlon is pretty disgusting.
The same Conlon who has been scouting , the same Conlon who has come onto a few away pitches on his crutches to thank the away support.
That Conlon eh Tom ?
Absolutely no need for those comments, obviously i don't know Conlon from Adam but from his interviews and demeanour and the way folk speak of him is the very reason he is captain and a worthy one at that.
Certainly a more worthy captain than Pope. Best thing Askey did was take away the captaincy from him.

It’s pretty clear to me that the Swindon manager, players and fans all think they’re through. If our players can’t get themselves up for this there’s something wrong with them.

I never really liked Pope when he was a player at the Vale - obviously liked what he did for the team, but always thought he was a knob. Everything he’s done since his retirement has furthered that view.
Quite funny really thinking back to his interview when he was slagging off Flitcroft and Clarke, saying Joyce was better than Walker etc. Look where we are now. He looks a right mug. He’s just a bitter man who I do not have the time of day for. No chance I’m going his testimonial and giving him money for beer and fags, I’d sooner flush 20 quid down the toilet.

Also think it’s laughable saying Taylor changed the game. He did nothing after coming on. The subs that changed the game were proctor and Benning.

Loved his interview after the game -how is the manager getting the best out of you - he puts me on the pitch
I thought that showed him for the knob he is. He didn’t deserve to be on the pitch at vale. Every time he played he was god awful.

I also think Swindon are a vile, vile team. Their players are diving cheating bastards, Williams and McKirdy both scum. But their fans are awful. I almost want to win just to knock them down a peg or two more than I do to get in the play off final.

Agree regarding the sky coverage. Was an absolute disgrace really. Absolute Swindon love in, which is odd since we finished above them and we both won one in the head to head.

We don't carry Taylor, he competes, covers, shadows and defends as much as any other midfield player, what do you watch.
If you didn't see that Vale played better 2nd half and that's not totally down to Taylor but at least Taylor bought some shape, pattern and passing ability to the team.
DC just said, "We've gotta be better on the ball", damn right so play Jake Taylor.
Got to disagree. He was totally anonymous when on. Only things I can remember him doing is having a pea roller shot that went miles wide, and getting hugely outmuscled in the run up to their second.

He should have been made to be arsed, then we'd now have a 22 goal scorer on our books, and not on Swindon's.
That’s not how it works

Yes I did and have watched every game this season. And I did watch the Hartlepool game where Taylor's brilliant cross and piece of quality won us the game
If you can't see what Jake Taylor brings to the Vale team compared to a Charsley then I don't know what you watch and how you interprete it. Runners will only get you so far.
Always going to be a difficult game today but you need players who can play and show endeavor.
Vale are still very much in this tie.
Yes we are still in the tie.
But we can’t carry Taylor just because of one pass. He was absolutely powderpuff today and against Rovers. Brought absolutely nothing to the game today whatsoever.-

People saying we shouldn’t have released McKirdy have short memories. Stevenage away anyone? He was total rubbish for us last season, didn’t put the effort in, and by all accounts was a rotten apple in the squad. On what grounds would we have kept him? I don’t particularly care what he’s done after.

Rubbish.
Did you not watch the Bristol Rovers home game? He was <ovf censored> today too.

I’d have taken a one goal loss before the game, so am happy with that.
-
This ref is a joke. Never a foul on McKirdy there.

Get in. Got to keep it at a one goal deficit now.

I think I hate these more than Walsall. But I actually hope if they beat us they win it and go up so we don’t have to play them again next year.

Bin Taylor off ASAP. Absolutely <ovf censored>.

This is a truly dreadful performance
-
Jake Taylor is awful
-
I agree Gibbons has been bad today but he’s been out a while so can’t blame him.
-
Why can none of our players control a football
-
Has Taylor touched the ball since he’s come on? We’re just hoofing it aimlessly forwards.

You’d struggle to find a worse player on the ball at ladsanddads under 12s

Play-offs v Swindon Tickets

Embarrassing really. Where are the 12k from Northampton? Where are the 8k from Man City away? There’s no way you’re telling me our entire home attendance went to Man City. 8k home fans for a home play off tie is tinpot.
