Match Thread: Port Vale v Bolton Wanderers

[Vale Ball]

Any vale fans catching the tube home please be careful. 
Apparently stoke fans are causing aggro back from Yorkshire. But plenty of police about thankfully 

Avoid the Northern line then.

Evatt being Evatt, again.

 

What. A. Bell. End.

So let’s just think about this. It was two yellows. They were so comfortable that their No 5 had to commit to ‘serious’ offences both warranting yellows. 

I think that drubbing at their place a few years back still rankles.

Rearrange these words to form the sentence 

 

End bell an absolute

I think all fans mentioned he was a good signing, it’s just the loan that’s the issue. He looks a very good keeper though. 

Stevens on a 12 month loan

Blackman on a 12 month contract

Same difference in my book

Garrity man of the match for me today , he was everywhere. Thought Brad walker was class when he came on to

On the loan there is probably an option to recall in January, but other than that....

Brad Walker is class.  I honesty think that if he was not injured for the run in, last season, then we would have gone up automatically.  Not that any of that matters now, but his range of passing really makes a difference.

How the frig has he saved that from Harrison at the end?

I thought Harrison is surprisingly good in the air and won quite a few high balls.

He will come up against inferior defences over the season, loved an aerial duel, more importantly he looked like he was loving it. Signs are looking good with him.

We were 2-0 up and Mansfield had the better of it 2nd half.

Whatever slant you want to put on it we did ok, 11 vs 10!

Just chuck a Wrights pie on the ground and you'll be just fine.

Or a really bad Oatcake... they're used to them

Great direct running into the box from Massey. We might even get a penalty this year

We can thank him for our day out at Wembley as well ! Suited him today having the time to spray some passes and eases him back to fitness

Ahh yes, I forgot about the incident with the No 4. Again, as with the No 5 on the corner, remind me again why that wasn’t an immediate 2nd yellow….

I'm not sure. The ref would have been lynched?

When you're as huge a club as Bolton,you expect every decision to go for you. Hence Fathead saying they'd have win comfortably with 11 men. Our GK made 2 save against 11 men. They resorted to hoofball second half.

Warren, if not too late, why not ‘release’ your son’s seat for MV to buy?  Have done the same with my ST (released it online) for today since I can’t travel.

Sorry, I didn't come back on here last night. Overall, The ground was not completely full. We were having a debate on other threads about occupying seats on the bases I have done where i just bought an extra season ticket which my son will rarely use. So that's Ok and valuable to the club when attendances are 4,5,6,7 k. But if the attendances are going to be much closer to capacity then that's a practice I should stop. I will contemplate the Portsmouth game.
