IFollow now working but with Stevenage commentators. Get in Vale. 1-0

Just been on Facache and there's people on there calling for tennis balls to be thrown on the pitch. Bloody stupid. As if it isn't bad enough to be in the position that we're in, we don't need <ovf censored> throwing stuff on the pitch, causing the team even more embarrassment and picking up a fine from the FA, which will further reduce the money in the budget. Some people haven't got the brains they were born with.

Agreed. The immediate problem comes in that, no matter what Carol does - we can bring in Alex Ferguson as manager and recruit Messi, Mendy, van Dyke and de Bruyne and it would still not be good enough for most people on here. Whatever she does, whatever money she spends, it will never ever be enough and I fear some sections of the crowd are already turning her into a figure of hate.

Dont know about you, old fruit, but i'm rather hoping we avoid the sinking bit.

Agreed. Seems a desperate attempt by someone to stir something up to produce anything to beat the club over the head again. That's the last thing that we need now; we need some cool heads to come up with a plan of how we're going to get out of this situation AND for that plan to be communicated to us, the fans. We all then need to get behind the plan and survive the season. Once the season is over - then we can start to do an autopsy and look at culprits.

m8 i'm just busting your balls. If they lost people like you as loyal supporters it would be a very sad day. if you can, KTF brother. ☺️

Didnt I read that Wednesday didn't manage to sign the player they were after and, as such, we didn't get Michael Smith

As I understand it the money we were making from that was going to part fund the Young deal till Uche failed the medical.

So, after yesterday’s disappointment, we are where we are. Unless something gets announced at last minute and surprises us all, we know what we’ve got – unless we get a Free Agent in. So, assuming we don’t get either of the above, I’d hope and pray we play Willow and Loft together upfront and that Lopata help sure-up the defence (so we concede fewer goals) and that Mighten and Chissie help provide the service that Willow and Loft need. Here’s my take on Feb fixtures: Fleetwood (a) 1pt. I’d be happy with a draw – though I’m sure we could win this. Orient (h) 1pt. I’d be happy with a draw Stevenage (h) 1pt. As above Peterborough (a) 0pt. Cant see us getting anything out of this game; if anything it’s a free hit and we should go there any try and beat them Cheltenham (a) 1pt. Cant see why we cant compete with them Reading (a) 3pts. One of the clubs with bigger problems than us. Lincoln (h) 3pts. They are team we can beat Fleetword (h) 3pts. We should beat them at Vale Park 13-15 points in February; Ojo back for the Cheltenham match. Got a key call at 15:15 this aft6ernoon then I’m off for a Friday beer.

Yeah - but are you still going or are you off m8...??

Nope. I'd never, ever bet against my own team.

I know some people have sworn at you and called you names; i'm not going to do that. All I want to ask you is, if you genuinely feel this way about Carol, et el, and the club, why dont you go and support another team...?? Genuine question - no chucking my toys out of the cot. Just go and pay your money elsewhere. For the record, i've known the Shanahans for over 30 years - I know Kevin far better than I know Carol. They're two of the nicest people i've ever met; they also run a massively successful business and are held in very high regards in the IT world. Further, for her work in the community, she was awarded an OBE. Again, if you are not happy you have the option to go and spend your money elsewhere.

You bet on your own team to be relegated...?? Really...??

Right geezers. I'm bored with this. I'm off bed. Laters laydeeezz

Either that or he's really a Stjoke fan living free in our heads on here.

Jesus. Give it a rest man.

Some guys I know who are Stjoke fans don't see happy about that

Who says he'll be straight in the first team there...??

Will that free up some cash to spend. Doubtful for today but hopefully for the summer. Or will it give us something to crystalise a deal somewhere

Tommy MC sold to Burnley - undisclosed fee

Even then it's a red herring. Nowt do with an injury.

Would love to sign him perm at the end of the year

You can just see him and Smudger arguing about who they're going to punch next.

Just spoken to my m8 who's given me the details I've shared in the past. He tells me that Williams is definitely not injured and was sent back because of his personal conduct. But Vale won't deviate from the line that he's injured as it's more important to us to keep the new relationship with Liverpool sweet. Apparently Liverpool are very apologetic and thankful we've kept a lid on it. Might get more out of them in the future. ..??
