Match Thread - Port Vale v Grimsby Town

[Erniemossrules]

Do you expect anything else?? I sure don't...

 

Yes Clark at left back instead of Vassell but I think Rawlinson will be back at right back.

I meant about Kay and Pope all alone, but I agree with you about the Clark/Rawlinson situation 😊

Clark is going back in January isn't he? Aspo has to prepare for the day he leaves......and probably isn't replaced.

Aspin and Co have not thought that far ahead - the possibility of loosing Clark - that will mean he will put a midfielder in that position no doubt.

 

Expecting another defensive set up with players playing out of their normal positions and Aspin and Co saying they have set up to be attack minded.

We’ve already got a good enough right back in the club in Gibbons, I don’t think he’s let us down. There’s more panic over other positions than right back IMO. But if Aspins given up on Monty as a left back then we need someone there.

 

After that performance at Macclesfield it’s another case of only a few coming out of a game with some credit. But I think we’ll change left back, because Vassell has been poor for a few games now and leave the rest as it was.

 

Let’s be honest I’d much rather us go traditional 4-4-2 or even a 4-4-1-1 formation and see players played in their correct position. Will Aspin be that bold?

“Funny” things is; a few weeks ago, I would’ve thought you were exaggerating to make a joke. Now I know you speak the truth 😔

442 or 443 don't care what the team is to much .Please for the love of good show some attacking intent and at least try a little bit to feed the pontiff properly. He needs a crimbo dinner,not gruel from scrooge :)

If he starts with Kay in front of the back 4 at home to Grimsby with one up front then he deserves all the criticism he will undoubtedly get.

 

Pope and Quigley in the same starting eleven, can already feel my neck aching!! lol

I thought it was a season long loan, I assumed that the loaning club could bit re-call him and he could only leave if another club wanted to buy him?

Surely Whitfield has to start? Surely?

 

If he's on the bench again then I'll give up.

 

Put Whitfield in for Kay, play him just behind Pope. Gibbons in for Vassell and move Clarke to left back.

Do you honestly think Aspin will bring back Gibbons?

Rawlinson will be back at right back and hoof ball to Pope with one up front.

Aspin will never learn that to win games you need to attack teams at home.

Now you are talking too much sense. Won’t happen though.

I will never understand what Gibbons did wrong, apart from go from an excellent start to his career to an indifferent run of games after.

 

He's still a good player and has those innate attributes which we lack; aggression, physicality, pace.

 

If I load up twitter and see "no changes from the Macclesfield game" I'll be sorely tempted to stay in the pub.

[MBE]

And some think aspin is doing a decent job. Just as bad as Michael brown.

 

Its OK though he's a Vale legend.....
