Finally dodds gets a goal. Crawley sound really dire. One more to finish them off please. This could be a great game to bring campion on last half hour.

[CambridgeDon]

Well done, Doddsy! We might just get a repeat of last season at this rate. :)

[valiant_593]

Campion has history of injury problems, that's why he's not being rushed to play full 90 minutes. He came on v Gillingham and would've came on v Coventry if McGivern didn't get injured.

 

Isn't being rushed? Jesus I understand Working him in slowly but this is ridiculous and you don't know that , personally I think birchall would have come on regardless.

[vale in the blood]

Lets hope we sneek another goal,so campion gets his chance,a good 30mins would really do him good.

Sounds like we've battered them in fairness.

[Gypo]

I completely understand Bar1 as I've been both a vale fan and member of OVF long enough to know that people get frustrated and are allowed an opinion.

 

But week after week Rob Page is slagged off for something just like MA was.

 

The players given **** even when we play well and win.

 

I fully expect Dodds to be given **** after the match too...

[Gypo]

To all of you who were condemning us to defeat before the match.....

[bookworm]

I'm absolutely disgusted and fed up of the ****ing morons not only on this forum, but also Wonder Of You slagging Page off every week regardless of the result and performance.

 

Combined IQ of potato.

 

i'm not knocking page, it's his starting 11 but probably the squad would be there or thereabouts, ben doesn't have a footballers brain, it's forever playing catchup with his legs and robbo should be on although it's horses for courses.

[Trentham Lakes Valiant]

Hasn't he made 3 changes?

 

But none that the fans wanted

[Bea Smith]

Slagged off last week because of an inept performance. Slagged off today because he chose virtually the same side. People are frustrated. Get over it.

 

The team seem to be getting over it on the pitch quite nicely. That's what counts. Williamson made Dodds goal it seems. HT 2-0 to the Vale.

[Gypo]

But none that the fans wanted

 

Oh look we are winning 2-0.

 

God job some of you aren't in charge

[Woakesy]

But none that the fans wanted

 

Since when did fans pick the team? Shall we just have a poll every week?

 

Page is the manager & should be trusted to pick the team without being lambasted. Especially before a ball is kicked.

[valiant_593]

Oh look we are winning 2-0.

 

God job some of you aren't in charge

 

You seen the opposition? I'm sure you weren't saying this last week with a very similar team selection.

[keeled56]

Doddsy and Willo both sheer class no doubt about it!!!!

[TylerB]

Some right numpties on here these days. Vale are winning and yet you still find something to bicker about.

 

Vale are an average League One side with a few very good players for this level but not enough fire power to be anything other than a mid-table team. We'll lose one week and win the next, no matter what the team selection, it's just how the season is going to pan out.
