Pope 60 goals in 185 games for vale

Played well yesterday, constantly had 2 or 3 players around him but won more headers than he lost and held the ball up very well. Looked a yard slower than when he was last here and lacking a bit of confidence in front of goal but I hope the goal will spur him on now. I also thought Turner linked up well with him.

111 in 407 over his whole career
It's what he does at Port Vale that I care about. I think you will find that where his goals to games ratio is low was when some goon of a manager shoved him out onto the left wing. How these people ever get a managerial job is beyond me.

Tom should only be played as the conventional centre forward or brought on as an impact player.

 

Everyone know what I think of Tom and I think it an absolute disgrace when he is picked out for the most flak when the team is playing poorly. All I know is that I wish all of our players gave the same effort every game like Popey does. Yes he isn't always on top of his game but who is even 'Arry Kane has his off days. Now before any clever dick point out that Tom isn't as good as Kane, I say yes I know but his passion for the Valiants is as strong as Kane's for the Spurs.

Indeed though you can knock his ratio this season which is pretty abysmal by any standards.

 

Hopefully yesterday the corner was turned and he can get to 20 asap.

 

If he gets 12-15 goals that will be a good return that betters anyone last season.

I'm aware that he said he'd love 25 goals himself, but that was tongue-in-cheek.

Totally agree the flack is ridiculous , must have missed us playing great football, creating loads of chances , pulling defenders about, getting to the byeline, players running off the ball,us dominating in midfield,all these clean sheets, all these chances created - think some people always need to slate someone seems like its popes turn - think they forget its 11 v 11

you are a strange one, whats his ratio goals to chances and what do you expect it to be?

 

we have a young good lad in turner that cant yet last 90mins , pyke who only scored in pre-season when we played mainly non league with a team each half, or Barnett who doesn't seem to be anything other than injured- the alternative to pope is what???

Turner set him up superbly first half yesterday....

 

He's had chances this season, just not taken them.
