Matchday Thread: Port Vale v Crewe Alex

[TylerB]

So you want to play with a back 4 and then wingbacks as cover for them? You do pick some strange teams but this is one of your strangest yet.

 

That has to be the weakest looking midfield ever assembled on paper for a league club.

Once again I've got a very bad feeling going into this one. I can see this going only one way and that's to Crewe. 2-1 to Crewe, they go 2 up in the first half and we score late on. I'd go 4-4-2:

Hornby

Wilson

Kay

Smith

Denton

Whitfield

De Freitas

Tonge

Stobbs

Turner

Pope

 

Attendance: 7,100 with 1,300 from Crewe.

Smith needs a break.. he basically carried the club last season.in American sports it's called sophomore slump (second season harder than first)..even England/premier clubs try to reduce the amount of games young players play..

[Andyregs]

I like this but would drop Smith for Gunning. Smith not playing well at the moment not many are, but we won with Gunning in the side.

You like that he's locked 6 defenders, with two wingback and 2 fullbacks? But would bring in gunning because we won with him? We wonenwith him at left back. Would you play him there and play 3 fullbacks with your wing backs? You taken one of vfia's more bizarre selections, and said 'hold my beer, watch this...'

Tbh the way they played v wycombe was with no wingers even though we had two on the pitch and it could work we should concede no goals with that line up lol.

So heres my team as i have no faith in Brown at all.

Speedy thegroundsman

RAY WILLIAMS PHil SPROSON George Andrews Ballboy

Bloke who eats five pies a game Kitman Lee sinnott Jim gannon

larry the clown boomer .

How bad could they do any worse lmao .

Seriously though i hope whoever the team is r collectively at it as Crewe r no mugs and usually win at Vale park usually anyway .

So a big response required from the players who r chosen .

Motivation comes from within once Brown has told them what to do it ultimately depends on the players so if they have nothing to give then u have to ask why they r selected.

I've worked every weekend since the end of last season and booked this weekend off looking forward to the Crewe game. After hearing how bad we've been on the radio, me , my Mrs, my son which would have been his first football match and my brother have decided not to go. That's 4 supporters Smurf has lost this weekend and possibly for the season as I'm not willing to pay 20 pound to watch rubbish. I'm watching the mayweather fight instead more excited about that. Until the club is sold and Brown and co have gone I won't be returning to vale park anytime soon. Not willing to pay them prices to watch crap.

Don't know what everyone's worrying about, straight forward 3 nil win. Love and peace

Nowt as fickle as football fans is there. If we ever start to play well you'll be there. If Smurf and Brown go you'll be there until we start to play crap again too.

Won't be going at all this season matey. Not paying them prices for 4th division football. Bloody hell my mates who are stoke fans only pay a few quid extra for premier football!! I'll carry on suffering listening on radio

Prem clubs could let people in for free and still make a profit these days, we rely on gate money. As harsh as it is, it's fact and ain't gonna change.
