Only one of Page's signings has been any good, Iness. The rest have been useless. If Page stays I'm fearful of who he will sign and that the better players will be gone too. I fear relegation next season. New manager and coaching staff needed now to build a team capable of the play offs. Just look at what the right manager did for Barnsley.

 

The goals we conceded were pathetic today.

I thought Junior looked promising today. I seem to remember everyone thinking Remie Streete was the dog's danglies. And didn't loads of folk on here want to keep Zubar? How many of Page's signings have been Page's signings by the way?

Can't disagree with that.

3 decent short term signings out of how many?

Hope for us yet then.

i went today expecting a response from last few games - great first half except didnt take chances - second half never turned up - simply not good enough not sure there are any in that side who should be there next season - need to sort out backroom staff so bye to Grew and Glove

For 45 minutes Orient looked flat, the fans were on their back and booed them off the pitch - they were as bad as any side I've seen us play this season. We had them exactly where we wanted them, without being clinical enough to get a second goal we needed. It was a game that needed exactly that sort of incident to turn it on it's head.

 

I heard somebody say that Collins reminded him of Darren Purse - I wouldn't disagree on today's evidence.

 

Junior was good, there was one incident where he got boxed in from our own throw in and the ball was landing right in front of him. It would have just bounced off a lot of players but he killed the ball stone dead with his first touch and came away with it.

Just back from Leyton. In reality a game of two halves. Vale dominated the first half but failed to score more than one. Leyton dominated the second and scored three with some assistance from Vale midfield. Very disappointing support after three lots of superb away support. The vocal element seemed to spend the first half bothering the flat dwellers and went very quiet in the second, leaving the field to the nay sayers and officials botherers. Full throated support is needed more than ever in adversity, not that there is a crisis, unless the so-called supporters want to turn a sub par performance into one.

That's in addition to Inniss of course! And I haven't mentioned Campion whom a lot of Vale fans think is the next Maradonna - but that again raises the question of who has made the signings.

Where was Dickinson for their second ... on his heels playing statues.

 

Can't believe we played Robertson and Collins rather than put some pace in there.

 

Keep saying it Norman is an unlucky Chairman, whenever he does something positive the team and Manager let him down.

[valiant_593]

Norman has been brilliant and invested maybe more than he should of done on the playing side. Maybe it's time to push the boat out and get a decent manager in with some excellent coaching staff. It's time to cut down the squad to a reasonable side and use loans if needed but for me if were to advance we need decent manager even if that means spending more than he'd like to. Get rid of the dead wood and clear out the coaching staff, start again, push the boat out to keep our better players and build a smaller squad with better players.

No argument there!!!

[blackdog]

but that again raises the question of who has made the signings.

 

The million dollar question...............

[Rudgiesflatcap]

I wouldn't want any gutless player like that full stop. That would be a cowardly way to play the game.

 

That's how Williamson plays every game.

How would anyone know if he's the next maradonna. If he's not ready for 1st team at 24 he won't ever be.

I was with a Man City fan in mid week. I suggested Man City played the wrong formation against B, but he went straight to the heart - they lack passion and commitment game after game. I don't go that far with our team as I have seen them. Most problems are at the heart of defence and that is it. But here are a few songs that could apply but don't. Love me for a reason, falling apart at the seams, what you waiting for, it's now or never, where are you, more than words, it's only make believe, the carnival is over. 9 points, next three games please, by any means.

And can I just say how completely unprofessional it was not of Radio Stoke to miss the first half. The fans got there, the Sentinel got there, why couldn't the Radio Stoke people. In future, I don't want to hear any of them criticising the manager or players for not doing their jobs properly

 

The Vale media team missed the first half and quite a few fans missed the first half too. I even saw Leyton Orient fans tweeting from the queue during the game.
