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.
SVABrilliant, glad you got to see a decent game. Safe flight home!
Cheers Pal....home and hosed now!

I have the same addiction. It used to be , “ How did the Vale get on”? Now she only says , “Well”? And I shake my head and wander off talking to myself .
You got cameras in our house???? Same same....

Anybody on here remember Crewe 1 Vale 5 when Bernie Wright turned into Alan Shearer in the second half. Night match standing on loose rocks behind the goal. Best times ever as a 16 year old....
One of my favourite games. I remember towards the end, a Crewe throw in and Bernie stood on the line in front of him, laughing at him. The Crewe lad didn't know what to do and was bricking himself...😂......we were leaning over the wall laughing at him!

Gonna try something new tonight which is not caring and watching champions league in the pub with friends, instead of vale on ifollow.
Hopefully this tricks the universe into a decent performance. The only thing that can jolt us out of this drudgery is superstition.
If I did care enough to pick a team - I'd like to see us go back to a combative 4-3-3. Hopefully Mitch Clarke can play a bit of the game.
From what I remember about orient when they played us at home they absolutely bossed the midfield and we're everything we wanted our team to be. Therefore we need to pack the midfield and get in their faces.
Was with you on Saturday at 5.00pm.....no way was I watching on Tuesday. I'm an exile and have a season pass on iFollow. Didn't say anything to the Missus but when she asked me yesterday, "is there a game, tomorrow?" I caved and said yes so I'm committed to watching it now.....well that's my excuse anyway. I just know what's coming so I suppose it musr be some form of addiction?
Someone please help me........

Positive vibes only🧘🧘🧘
To be fair, MBE, I've had them since my first game in 1964! It's just that I've had em drained out of me this year, mainly from coming on here! (As well as watching what we've been served up, obviously!)

Bloody Hell, Lads!
What are you doing to me? I've watched every game and slowly slipped into the Trough of Despond, especially after last Saturday's abject surrender. Then, reading all the posts on here this week, I had waved the white flag and genuinely built myself up to, "Meh, not really bothered....we're down. Just watch each game as it comes and DON'T get so het up!"
NOW, after reading this thread, I'm starting to get up for Saturday. I've sniffed some optimism in the air. i'm believing we can win and it will kick start a mini revival which will see us safe. I can't believe I've just written that
If even the diehard Grumpies are sensing something, how can I resist?
Come on Vale, let's be havin yer tomorrow!
2-0 Vale! (Followed by immediate disillusionment/disappointment at 5.00pm...)

Near 1/5 of his career goals tally have actually been in the back of the Vale net...
Scored 21
Scored v Vale 4 (1 for Carlisle, 2 for Scunthorpe, 1 for Rovers)
We need to tell him we are shooting the wrong way!
i remember him being an absolute pain in the harris every time he played against us!

No way would Loft hit the back of any net
He'd be facing the wrong way....he was trying to clear it of course! I didn't mean a conventional header and NO WAY would he be heading it in their area....😂

It will probably go one of two ways;
We'll get threaped 5/6 none and give up after 30 mins when we're 3-0 down
OR
we'll have a magnificent defensive rearguard, throw everything back at them....Lofty comes on and in the 98th minute backheads one into his own goal and we lose 1-0!
You know it'll happen!

After that start most teams would find it hard to get their confidence back but having said that Vale just don't look good enough all over the pitch. They seem like they've never played together and totally lacking in confidence and hence movement off the ball.
Come on Vale for heavens sake.
As "Good" as Lincoln have been at keeping the ball and their shape, they've not created much.
Vale are still in this, we just need a spark.
My thoughts entirely....we look poor man for man.

I cannot watch that any more.......had to turn it off and it's not very often I have done that in 58 years of watching. Absolutely shocking defending.

The Lad is embroidery on a coal sack for me....simples!

Some tactical advice AC....introduce the players to each other at half time. Poor half as we didn't put anything together. Hopefully 2nd half will be a massive improvement.

Happy clapping to the happy chappy club! If only we got over the line against Stevenage. I'd have been handing in my application form!
If it was only that easy Valiiant!
A win against Stevenage? If you've Happy Clapped your way through FA Cup defeats to Scarborough, Canvey Island, Enfield, Chasetown and the Dog and Duck you would enter onto our radar. A win over Stevenage after being 2-0 up and then 3-2 up? 2 last minute equalisers? Just basic standard stuff for the Happy Clappers Club. Wouldn't even break out me rattle for that, I'm afraid.

Exeter City (H) match thread - 13th April

I'm not sure if anybody commented on this in the Peterborough game forum but.....
When Lofty was subbed off v Peterborough he didn't go to the bench he went straight down the tunnel. The iFollow camera was pointed straightdown the tunnel looking at Moore. In the background Lofty booted the door/wall as he went down the tunnel definitely not a happy clapper1 Did anybody else see it or was it my imagination? Then today he's injured in the warm-up??????
