  1. The other thing with Norm was that it wasn’t all work work work. He kept a healthy work life balance and managed to find plenty of time for his other activities.
  2. Smurthwaite was a genius. How he managed to build a similarly talented squad, all by himself, without paying out a director of football salary, I’ll never know.
  3. Do you know what Warren, I think you might be right.
  4. Would it be 3 wins in 30 if we fail to win on Saturday?
  5. I saw someone say that we are on a par with the Bruno/Brown team of 2016/17 but not quite as bad as the Foyle/Sinnott team of 2007/08, and I tend to agree. There have been worse Vale sides in the fourth tier. The Pugh/Tonge axis of evil immediately springs to mind.
  6. AC/DC - Thunderstruck Faithless - Insomnia Before anyone asks
  7. This will not endow any of them with any footballing ability.
  8. It saddens me to think of some the players we will have under contract next season.
  9. First priority has to be to make sure we don’t do a Forest Green. That requires signing some players with some leadership and fighting qualities, instead of having some nice metrics on Wyscout.
  10. It was Plymouth Argyle. 17 league games plus 1 cup game (away at Sunderland who went on to reach the final that year).
  11. There would be some entertainment value at least, which would be an improvement on where we are currently.
  12. I know we’re all angry and desperate but, seriously…
  13. Giving a 32 year old a 3 (!) year contract should have raised a few eyebrows.
  14. He can’t be allowed to do any more damage. A team with this little fight falls straight through to the national league from league two next year.
  15. I didn’t know that about her. I bet she could afford to buy a Penny Black now if she wanted!
  16. It’s their money to do with as they see fit. If they chose to pocket it all and ride off into the sunset who could blame them. Of course it could ease their tax burden if they put some of it into a loss making business 😕 I don’t know how far even the whole £180 million would get you in the modern game. Personally I want to see us be as well run, self sufficient as possible and retain our own identity.
  17. Looking at the companies that have been registered at Companies House since late 2023, I’d guess that they were incorporated to allow properties and other assets to be moved out of the Synectics group and kept in the ownership of the Shanahans.
  18. Typical OVF then. Well, that and other places as well.
  19. The cycle track will need planning permission first
  20. She’s not wrong.
  21. If you don’t like it mate, go down the Brit.
  22. The worry for me is that Moore could well turn out to be a disastrous appointment and were too busy blaming the players and the poor recruitment to notice it. A bit like the free pass that Michael Brown got.
  23. I was in the opposite corner in the Railway Stand and even I could see it was a pen. As soon as Jones had a couple of big handfuls of shirt he was in trouble.
