    It’s a one game season mentality. Throw this game away now. Couple of corrections for DM to think about on the first goal for them but other than that move on to Wigan now. Win that and it’s a different conversation again.

    Let's hope so Guppy

    All we can do mate, can’t change today now. If it’s not enough then so be it but it’s the only way we can get ourselves out of it.

    Not bothered about the second goal. Caught on the counter chasing the game it’s the chance you take. First goal is a different story.

    As it happens Cheltenham losing late on means it could be worse. We still have a chance but really need to go balls to the wall against Wigan now.

    Got to second the comments about the away atmosphere, that was really bad compared to Burton.

    Whilst it's some achievement to play the amount of games that Smith has I'm sure he was touted for Norwich. Not sure if that was on of their brief Premier league excursions or at Championship level. Ultimately they didn't come a knocking or we'd of cashed in. 

    Way before I recall Fulham had looked at Joe Anyon even taking him on trial iirc. If clubs are willing to offer decent money for these players we simply have to take it, you just never know how these players will turn out. Even those touted as wonder kids from an early age like Freddy Adu back in the day there’s no guarantee they make it.

    Maybe I'm harsh due to how good Arblaster was. 

    He looked a sideways plodder that day considering all the hype. Good job Pompey were way off the ball that day. 

    If we go down which is still odds on we won't be loaning many budding Premier league starlets . Be too low down the chain sadly. 

     

    He did that day but I think Arblaster is just an outlier in terms of loans for us. Caught a bit of his game v Fulham the other day and he looked a good premier league footballer. Devine by comparison on the other hand when he first got here not to say he was bad but I certainly didn’t see generational talent like Tottenham fans said. It took time to get going and then he was good (incidentally Plymouth fans are far from sold on him). We’ll never know now unfortunately with Gore if he’d have done similar.

    Dan Gore ?

    Why would we possibly want him ?

    A disastrous loan. Whilst I realise he's been injured he was out of his depth v Pompey. 

    And I've had my fill of injured players and sicknotes these last few seasons. 

     

    The injury fair enough but are you seriously judging a players ability off approx 50 minutes of action when he’d barely trained with the squad and was thrown in alongside Weir against the best in the league? Thats a little unreasonable. It was just a hypothetical anyway as it was the first name that came to mind, could be anyone else they might offer first dibs on.

    If my memory serves me right last time I went Northampton you can buy tickets from a booth just outside away end .

    We lost I think John Mccombe got sent off or he broke someone's leg anyway on first visit to six fields Richard's and Rigg scored and qe won 2-0 about 250 of us there 

    Enjoy we ain't conceded a away goal in 180 minutes and let's face it we seem like a different team in last 2 .

    If Lincoln who as ordinary as ordinary can string together the run they have then Vale who are overall a much better side than them CAN (in my opinion).

    I know the league table says different but if we stay up we will be above them next season along with many others.

    For years I ain't seen a committed performance from ALL like Fri it took me back to the when Aspin played days where every player who donned the black and white put the pride in the shirt.

    Fri did SAME Again .

    Just been to purchase one and that kiosk outside the away end is still there for anyone paying on the day.

    Fourth time coming here. Best one was the first time under Askey when we beat them 2-1 with 10 men. Was a David Worrall masterclass that day and think Pope hit his 100th Vale goal to win it. Similar result minus the red card will do me just fine.

    It’s simply not realistic for us to take that gamble. Clubs like them can afford to give up decent sums on potential and who knows how Baylee ultimately turns out as a player. Could injury derail him or whatever? It’s not a position we are in. Looking at the article from Nixon United are keen to make it happen as I daresay the likes of Arsenal will no doubt start looking too so am pretty certain any deal would be beneficial to us too. Maybe they throw in a full season of Dan Gore on loan and see what he can really do as well to sweeten it for us.

    Depends what tier team take him on. 

    If he went to a side outside the top 6, every chance he gets good development time and a chance of a sell on.

    The worry with the top tier sides is he could get gobbled up in loan hell and not kick on. 

    Ideally the best club for him develop at would be a Brighton or Brentford. They have a great track record at developing talent and that would then bring in a good chance of the big sell on. It is a legitimate concern about going to Man Utd but then it’s a chance to maybe one day play for one of if not the biggest clubs in the world.

    Expect this will be a sterner challenge for us. Northampton a decent side and have a manager I really rate in Jon Brady. Surprised his name never gets linked when vacancies higher up become open to be honest. We seem to be operating more as a unit now both defensively and going forward so hopefully can carry that into this one. Draw wouldn’t be the end of the world but no reason we can’t push for all three points.
