[Emile]

Would love a sneaky win

Be interesting see the following .
No news on Burton selling out either .
I'd say 500 odd max tomoz and cause its holiday season 1200 away v Burton at a guess .
Big games could do with some impressive away displays .
Be watching at home as in work at 22.00 tomoz and sat going up to Lpool .

Only 150 left for Burton mate so at least 1600 there 

I reckon 350 tomorrow

I cant wait to see Massey start but i still dont think he is quite up to speed yet so doubt he will start this one.

I tend to agree on Proc although i do see him starting tomorrow but i cant see DC wanting him to play 3 games in a week so i wonder if a striker will come in before Saturday even if its a loan one

It's classic Vale. Away to a team with no points and no goals scored. History tells us what's going to happen.Hopefully we can break the curse

 

To be fair, they have played Ipswich & Sheff W in the first 3 games, that's tough.

Fancy our chances tomorrow night. 

1 nil vale 

Big fair play to anyone heading down to Milton Keynes on a Tuesday night. Especially with the train situation

Trains should be ok tomorrow, at least, I hope they are, as I don't fancy the last train back getting cancelled 😄

Maybe Massey is ready to give 60 minutes, so a start might be on the cards?

I reckon the players will relish playing in these conditions a lot more than the last 2 matches in hot conditions.  The forecast is for light showers maybe the odd rumble of thunder, nothing torrid there.  I would say Rotherham and Bolton were torrid conditions.

Do they allow games to go ahead during storms with potential lightning these days? Mind you I was slightly surprised there wasn't demands to postpone games over the weekend with how it is this day and age!

Winnable, they have a fair few out.

Speaking as one of the resident Buckinghamshire Valiants, it may not be.

The weather app I use shows it being 50/50 as to whether it will rain or not. 

There are thunder storms around so perhaps one will fall on Milton Keynes but all the radar images I see show them missing the area and if so it will be warm, but not as hot as it has been. I don't think (and these could be famous last words) it's going to be a game played in conditions where the heavens have opened.

Can see DC being more defensively minded away from home and with fitness issues upfront might play Harrison with Garrity pushed forward.  Possibility of Massey/Proctor/Holden all coming on as attacking  subs if needed. Interesting to see our starting 11 as difficult to second guess at this moment in the season.

Not a huge Hussey fan but this is the sort of game I had him down as being involved in. Old head, stronger defensive qualities. 

However he seems to of vanished from the squad altogether.
