Match Thread - Lincoln City v Port Vale

[Regal Beagle]

I think it's likely he'll go back to 3 CBs for this one.

 

 

edit...Sorry I mean playing 3 CBs in the CB position, there will almost certainly be more than 3 CBs playing

[PVTony]

Undecided what to do on 1st Jan. Could go for a walk, or watch some paint drying.

Can't think of anything that would be more exiting or interesting.

[valiant steve]

Having watched our central midfielders these last few games, I can see why he favoured playing more centre backs!

[soothsayer]

Yeah I am!! Which striker you playing with pope???

 

Unless you are aware we haven’t exaxtly got a bloody truck load. I’d play Miller but he seems to have blown it. Angus can’t play, Whitfield is the only player likely to cross a decent ball and then theres... NO ****** ELSE!!

 

Not entirely happy with that team myself but will give us a bit more pace which we have been sadly lacking this season.

 

I'd play Whitfield off Pope and play Worrell, Monty, Hannett and Manny in midfield.

 

You are correct about on thing though our attacking options are woeful. When you look at the bench and all we have is Dodds and Turner, it tells you all you need to know about the club.

7-2-1 is the only way to stop a double figure defeat tomorrow.

 

Knowing Vale we will go out and win 3-0, though.

[Frank Mustard]

Angus available for selection after 3rd jan.

 

Neil will be happy, that’s left back sorted.

Footballs funny ain’t it. I don’t think Monty and oyleke deserve to be anywhere near the starting line up at present. Which leaves us short on the wing hence bringing Turner in.

 

I think there is one thing we can both definitely agree on...aspin won’t pick anything like!! Will probably be

 

Brown

Clark smith legge Kay rawlinson vassell pugh

Joyce hannant

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pope.

 

 

Then he will claim we are not negative or hoof ball.

 

Haha

 

All the best for the new year. Let’s hope it doesn’t get worse!

[For Us All]

In my opinion the next two games will make or break or break Aspo?

Nails growing? I'll start watching and then when absolute frustration takes over.......I dunno, what a start to a new year....an absolute stuffing in the making. Mind you, you watch Vale go and bloody win it....I've seen them do this many times.

[ClntonBoulton]

Neil will be happy, that’s left back sorted.

 

:laugh:

[bookworm]

think i'll wash some dishes and clean a few tools.

....there's a few right tools in our match-day squad; a good 'cleaning' for them might help us put in a few decent performances.

[CambridgeDon]

I fear the very worst in this game,but I did get our last 4 results totally wrong I expected 8pts out of the 12.

 

Well, I'm expecting zero points out of our next four so I hope I'm as totally wrong as you've been!

[Beza]

we are desperate for a Togwell type of midfield box to box player. I don't think we have had a decent midfield player for many years

[valiant steve]

Let's hope 2019 sees some positive changes at VP. A new owner is top of most people's wish lists.

I can't recall going into a new year so pessimistic about Vale and the short term and long term outlook.

No matter how bad the result today, we can't be relegated today- that's the most positive thing I can think to say about an away match against the might of Lincoln City.

Enough is enough. Get out of our club.
