Tonights Games

[sandyford_valiant]

How do they survive with crowds like that, Smurf would have a heart attack:yes:

 

They've got a good manager who knows an eye for a footballer and he's left to sign his players he wants and not the chairmans

[Shropshire_Valiant]

Attendance at Rochdale who are in 7th place,1,914.

 

That's appalling barely deserves league football let alone League One! I know we've had some bad Tuesday night gates but in that position we'd have got 5,500-6 surely?

[bookworm]

To think that Port Vale are having to rely on the failings of others to help us retain our league 1 status.I think it's an absolute disgrace that we are in this position and the staff should hang their heads in shame,we shouldn't be glorying in the demise of others although it's human nature but to my way of thinking it's wrong although our club must come first and our safety is paramount but we shouldn't be fighting for survival.

Over 8000 at Bury.

[filbobaggins]

Do people think we are safe now?

 

...****ing it now 4 pts +1 (goal difference) 2 games left of which 1 vs bottom of the league then a home game to finish worst case scenario. If carlsberg made relegation battles......

Rochdale play good football too - they are tight at the back, win the ball well in midfield and play a passing game. Think they're the fourth highest scorers in the league and on a minute budget. Keith Hill would make a great manager for the Vale but the question is whether he'd come.

[Congleton Phil]

One win gives us 54 pts and safety, Orient max 53 ,Notts Co 53 , Colchester 54 but far inferior goal difference, lets hope we can achieve it on Saturday

[blackdog]

Over 8000 at Bury.

 

It was free entry because the first game was abandoned.

[24November92]

I think a point will do bearing in mind our superior goal difference.

[valefan16]

Think we've done enough now although won't take it for granted, Orient need four to catch us, Colchester 7 (GD much better than them) and County need to win both realistically barring a couple of high scoring results in the games involving us both (8 goal swing needed), this on the prevail hat we lose both too. Pressures off a little bit so hopefully we can go Yeovil and finish it ourselves. At least worst case scenario sees us host Fleetwood with it in our own hands.

Pressure off

 

for us to go down ....

 

We lose both games

Crawley need 2 points from their last two

Crewe a win in their last two

Orient win one and draw one of their last two ..or

Notts to win both their last two.

 

Four of those 5 have to happen for us to go down.

 

Anyone want a bet?

 

Expect us to win both our games now.

[valefan16]

50/1 with Skybet now and 33/1 with bet victor...

Don't forget Colchester!

[smithie]

And if we won both, we'd finish on 57 points - just 4 less than last season.

 

Is that really a sackable finish for Rob Page in his first (part) season as a boss?

He's done well at Rochdale in both stints but was atrocious when given a decent budget at Barnsley.
