Rob Page- yay or nay.

[Robbie Earle's Perm]

Agreed definate no but none of the regular moron posters on ere cum up with alternatives just sit there slagging off those that do but offer nothing

 

Speaking as one of the regular moron posters I bow to your superior knowledge, let's indeed go for Keene (sic), a man that would clearly take on the role!!!!!! ;)

[Houston Valiant]

Sean or Brian?

 

The latter could be useful given the tactics of some of Vale's opponents recently.

 

Yeah, that's right about Brian.

[Houston Valiant]

Complete clear out for me aspo in half season ticket offer from smurf away we go

 

I agree with that.

[Dastardli]

I voted yes, however i think he should be given the rest of the season and see where we go from there. I dont believe we will go down this season.

[onestepatatime]

Obvious from Norm's comments in todays Senile that we are "stuck" now with what we have got. He is not going to replace Page, no matter what happens. Also he paints a depressing picture for next season as things stand and it could be that unless fans actually start to go through the turnstiles again we will have a very different squad next season, because he will offer low contracts and some may well go elsewhere to maintain their living wage.

 

I am one who would have loved a "new" regime manager and coach wise at Vale after Adams left but I and many others will now have to face facts and realise support for our Club has to be united. Difficult to actually see if we can put aside any issue we have and get fully behind the Vale to ensure at least we are in Division 1 next campaign. I will take up Norm's rallying call though and hope many others can see the benefit of trying to totally support everyone at Vale with a view to improvement being made. Come on Valiants we have come so far recently let's get behind the lads on the pitch.

If he has the whole season we will. Why should that be the aim all of a sudden? Just to stay up? We have spent a lot of money on wages and have a very strong squad. It would be nice to have a manager that knows what he's doing tactically to get the best out of the likes of O'connor, lines ect.

Big game tomorrow. I wonder if any of the new boys will actually get a game? I doubt it. Send the buggers back.

 

Send them back so we can continue to select the likes of Williamson, dodds, Dickinson and Duffy every week.

new striker may get a game.... before xmas

[Stamfordvale]

Same old same old, its a Nay.

[TylerB]

Just an interesting note to consider, if we'd have played that game during our losing streak, would it have ended a draw, or would we have lost? I think we'd have lost personally.

 

In all fairness, being 2-1 up against 10 men and only end up drawing the game very much felt like a loss. It seems that they could have easily won the game too.

 

The players attitudes has definitely improved under Page, as has the work rate, but it's a honeymoon period and that was always going to happen. He's almost a like for like for Micky Adams in his team selections and substitutions, only without the bags of experience and promotions on his CV that Micky has. Page might well make a decent manager one day but he's not what Vale need right now.

[Lady_Vale]

Probably irrelevant but it's a nay.

 

Judging by NS's comments today regarding not affording a new backroom team the decision is already made. Smurthwaite is just waiting for the miracle of 2 wins on the bounce to announce it

My feelings exactly, nail on the head!

Totally agree. I'm guessing that he was surprised at the poll results and now realises that Adams MkII would not be a popular choice.

 

Smurf doing his best to demotivate everybody.

 

Anyhow, we are where we are....

 

And repeat.

By finding extra money for 5 new players, taking time out to go and watch one of them in London, by listening to what fans want and scrapping the £3 matchday cash admission charge ? Your reasoning is that of a spoilt brat thowing toys out of the pram.

Hi Bea

 

Long time, no speak.

 

I'm guessing that you've not read his comments in the Sentinel? The comment about demotivation (in case you're struggling to understand) was on the basis of his comments about funds for this season and next.
