Match Thread: Port Vale v Crawley Town.

[Fosse69]

Back to back home wins for the first time this year, and firm up our league place. A wet afternoon forecast but that is nothing new. Carry on with Hornby in goal, and use Turner for our bigger pitch. After a four day break go for it Vale.

Hope we don't think the jobs done and we are safe , still need the intensity of the Chesterfield match!!

I picked this one out as our most likely 3 Pts over Easter.They are having a bad time of it lately.

No game is easy when you are a struggling at the bottom,We have to hope that Popey is fit enough to get through 90mins.

Win this we are safe, draw it we are likely safe.

 

Should get at least a point. 3 would mean we can relax a bit.

You know what? My Old Man used to always say you don't get many "doubles" in a season....we've already won at their place....which makes me feel uneasy! Another draw on the cards? Hope not......goarn Vale prove the Old Fella wrong and he'll be chuckling under the turf at the Bycars End!

We've not lost many lately so a draw looks highly likely and a win is possible,we seem to be scoring when we are playing well lately,pity it's only for 25 minutes out of the 90.

The last time we completed the double over anybody was January 2016 when we won away games at Blackpool and Doncaster.

A 3-1 win for Vale. Then we can all relax. Pope , Hannant and Whitfield.

What has happened to Donovan Wilson? Scored a class goal, missed the next game for personal reasons, not heard of since.

I’m going 2-0 to the Vale with Pope and Whitfield.

Was wondering that myself. He didn't really celebrate his goal which was strange. Maybe he came off and had a rant at Aspin for not playing him more and Aspin has sent him packing under the guise of "personal reasons".

TBF We were 2-0 down when he scored so that's why his celebration was fairly muted.

This is Vale. With safety in sight we'll probably lose!

 

In order to prevent this usual event I'd play someone other than Barnett alongside Popey, basically anyone who actually gives a toss and attempts to occasionally break out of a jog into a run.
