Agree with DC on the injury situation. Why have we had so many hamstring related injuries, it cannot be bad luck, something has been seriously wrong on the fitness front.

He certainly does like to blame factors out of his control.

weve scored one goal in his four matches. i know the quality isnt there and were near the bottom for a reason but if this trend continues then we prob score another 6/7 goals in the remaining matches. Clarke will have had 18 matches when the season ends, if we go dwon then he has to have some of the blame. The quality in the final third is worse than conference standard, its awful. the only hope of staying up is to somehow nick a win or two and the other three dont put a run together and overtake us in the last couple of games of the season. relegation for the club and carols plans would be disaster.

Similar clubs to Vale have gone down and are still there,ie Notts County and Chesterfield.Time for the manager and playing staff to get a bloody win.No excuses anymore.

Did everyone expect miracles?

The squad is atrocious. One of the worst in history. And on top of that our only half decent players are forever injured.

We all know it goes back to the recruitment in the summer where we failed to improve the first 11 and signed a bunch of makeweights to augment the squad.  That said, Clarke has come in and from the off imposed new formations whilst chopping and changing the starting lineup every game, OK one or two are enforced, this despite his correct observation that we assembled the squad to play 433.  He's chosen to shake the bag rather than take a more considered approach so he's making a rod for his own back to a certain extent.

He talks the talk if you like a bull shitter who blames everyone else. What has he done for us? Drainage, fresh water? Not points.

He's got us conceding less goals. Let's face it the only one who could with a defence like this

Trouble is we have been on a terrible losing run conceding goals for fun playing that way. I don't think he has a choice at present other than 352 however until the midfield 3 are prepared to put the foot on the ball and pass then we are pissing in the wind.

As bad as we are, and we are absolutely minging, it is worth remembering that we're missing so many key players that any side in the league would also struggle with. We can get away with one or perhaps two key players out. But Oyeleke, Worrall, Amoo and Pope is just soul destroying. If they were all fit they'd be 4 of the 5 or 6 players I'd actually want to keep going into next season. I dare say had they all been available then Clarke's current record would look considerably different.
