    He did not lose money, you absolute clown.

    He conned his way into being chairman of the club for very little investment. He then awarded himself a massive wage in doing so and then changed all the shareholder's t & c's so that he could not be removed.

    He then was on a beach in the Caribbean, sticking his two fingers up to all the Port Vale supporters & all the shareholders, after being the only shareholder  to get his little, pathetic investment back whilst the club went into administration because of his shabby leadership.

    He is the biggest con man of them all.

    Maybe him and Smurf should join forces and buy Tranmere Rovers to show us what we are all missing

    Spain, not the Caribbean!

    he really does not look fit but he may e the only choice 

    It's not surprising he doesn't look fit, is it?  He's been out for a while.  60 mins on Saturday, away from home, and hopefully he's ready for the last 5.  We need his presence up front.

    If we go down I think Garrity and Ojo will be gone
    Agree we need a clear out but that might be difficult unless we pay some contracts up

    Ojo has two more years on his contract, so he'll stay unless there's a pay reduction clause for relegation.  I think Chis will go as well, if we go down.

    Definitely between the 3 of us fighting for 2 spots, thought Cheltenham would win today but can see in their next 4 games, them winning 3, they have Carlisle and Bristol Rovers at home who are dreadful lately and a Orient side on the beach and a woeful Burton away, minimum we need is 4 wins, can see us finishing ahead of Burton but think Cheltenham will send us down.

    Carlisle whopped Posh 3-1 away last week!  It's a topsy turvy time of the season.  You never know what will happen!

    At 17 and being selected ahead of any other forward for England, that is a clear indication he’s becoming the considered one of the best striker in the country for his age. Being picked ahead of premier league youth players… What we should be saying is what clubs aren’t looking at him, you’d have to think most premier league clubs will be taking a look.

    It’s great press for the club and a massive positive for the continued youth production line we’ve been churning out.

    Keep smashing it BP, lovely being linked to the likes of United.

    United?  Very John Motson. Could you be referring to Newcastle United, Leeds United, West Ham United?

    It was lousy defending... They stood off him. Any Sunday league defender would d have put a boot on the ball! 

    Rubbish. I say the same about Maradonna's 'goal of the century' against England. Sansom, Fenwick, Butcher all stood off, frightened to tackle.

    Well worth the trip over! After last year's visit to Accrington I saw a world of difference in yesterday's performance. It wasn't pretty first half but I've seen us cave this season under that kind of pressure. They were a big outfit and we repelled all boarders at those long throws and free kicks.
    Second half there was only one team trying to play football but i thought it was going to be one of them days when Ben's header thumped the post in front of us. Credit to 'em though and the goal was after brilliant work from Lofty in different ways. Again, when Blackman,(how big is he?) got a touch on Chizzy's shot and it trickled against the post I thought we'd shot it but Loft, Loft will tear you apart again. Cue limbs around me and at 66 my bad knees and hip just about stood up to it!
    Thought Loft was excellent all game....not the most accomplished of centre forwards I've ever seen but looks like he may be settling in. I've seen where people said he nearly missed the goal...he didn't. It was right in front of me and he had to get it up and over the bodies throwing themselves at him. Good finish I thought. i thought he'd done everything right first half but seemed to just roll it the wrong side of the post.
    Oh well, onwards and upwards with that effort and never say die defending.......doctor, there's still a pulse.
    Off to get flight home but i'll be there in spirit on iFollow on Friday.

    Brilliant, glad you got to see a decent game. Safe flight home!

    How Carol reacts to this is going to be a real litmus test.  She either has to invest or she will sell up.  She may well be feeling bitter and resentful that the fans have forced out her right hand man, against her wishes, having publicly backed him as she did. 

    She's probably at a crossroads in her personal life, too.  She's sold her business and is free to do what she wants.  Maybe the Vale experience has taken its toll?  We'll find out over the next few months, no doubt. 

    What price RW doing a Wrexham, getting a couple of wealthy pop mates to join him? 

    Interesting times ahead, methinks.

    Garrity was part of our promotion team whilst I’d have Worrall over Chislett any day and as for Wilson he seems to be doing his best to keep injury free before moving on in the Summer. 
    I agree about the defence though, Ripley apart they can all go for me. Major surgery is required during the next transfer window but I can’t see even that to be enough for us to challenge next season. There’s usually two ways to get out of L2: through money at it like Wrexham and Stockport or build season on season like Mansfield and Exeter have done. I really can’t see us doing a Wrexham.

    There is a third way, but it's at the bottom of the league, not the top!

    I’ll be sticking to my new pre-match routine for this one.  Bacon and tomato oatcakes and a large whisky chaser for breakfast, light lunch followed by 3 or 4 pints, then whatever beer I can fit in up at the fanzone before kick off and at half time.  It’s really made a big difference, and whilst I’m not seeing much of the games I’m  enjoying them much more.

    I laughed out loud, GR.  Thank for cheering me up 😂😅👏👏
