Sun 3rd May 2015, Port Vale v Fleetwood T, pre-match, the match itself.

Some might not want Page, others think he probably deserves a bit longer having secured our status, many are ambivalent, but the overwhelming majority I guess are Port Vale supporters and will do their best to support the Club regardless of the manager's name.

 

In any case, when the new fixture list comes out and the sun shines in July and we have 4-5 new players arriving those tickets will fly off the shelves.;)

[Davebrad]

sadness and realism go hand in hand when you support PORT VALE, it's a well known fact.

 

They said it would,nt be easy following the Vale, but we do, so cheer up and smile...

I'm all for playing a lot of the youngsters but let's not forget a lot of players gonna be leaving Vale and in particular I want Pope to play a full game because I truly believe it's his last and it's only right we give him standing ovation at the end, something tells me that lad gonna get abit emotional on Sunday

 

...If it is Pope's last game for us, then I wouldn't play him. i would use this game to look at players who will be here next season. We could still give Pope a well-deserved ovation after the game has ended.

I would pick the same 11 from last week's game but I would also put a few youngsters on the bench. :). Give them a chance to come on the pitch and impress us and show us why they have been given a contract at Vale. :).

Jonny Kapend has been mentioned a lot recently and has signed a professional contract with us. I would like to see him on the bench with Andoh and Deen Conteh tomorrow :).

Burton crowned champions and the shrews runners up, a couple of decent away days there fellas.

Bury and Blackpool and Wigan will be good as well :). They will also bring a good set of fans down to Vale as well :).

My observation regarding O'Sullivan was based on his performance at Rochdale which was certainly not one of the worst displays by a midfielder in over 65 years of watching the Vale. I will not mention the worse performances as I do not believe in running our own players down., and any way my memory is not strong enough to include them all.

I won't to see the strongest team we can field on the pitch today,there is pre season friendlys to try fringe and young players.

A grey day to draw a curtain over a grey season. All football fans hope for great things and most are disappointed. To quote one of the great minds of the 21st century, next season "We go again".

 

3-1 Vale

I really would like to see Andoh and the left back given a game today

I will and i think that was Neil MacKenzie at Bury around 2009

I see what you are saying but imo this is a game to see what a couple who could be ready for the first team play like in League One action and not pre-season

[Rampant Zebra]

I think we have already decided on the reserve team players who are staying, hence the recent contract offers. Todays game should be about winning and letting the out of contract first team players have a last chance to impress. In my opinion of course

[CAVALIER]

Bob Delgardo away at Huddersfield in 1979 was the worst ever

[valefan16]

Coulibaly starts :) only change with Fleetwood making six changes. Andoh makes the bench.
