Match Thread: Accrington Stanley v Port Vale

[werstayinup]

So much for the BS of we have to pay 100k if Stevens and Taylor play in same team

[philmpv]

Odd team imo

In what respect? Looks attacking to me. Only query I have is why Massey instead of Worrall. But I'm not paid to make those decisions

[werstayinup]

Just hope we can come up with the goods today and secure our League One position for next season

Watching on holiday in Cornwall so it better be worth me paying for the Mrs to go out for the day and have her nails done 🙂

Jack Stephens and Matty Taylor starting… it’s not been a good week for the conspiracy theorists.😂

Startling lack of height, why is Stevens playing instead of Stone,

We’ll batter them today! 🤣Happy Easter!

Having seen the team, I’m revising this prediction downwards!

Don’t rate either keeper but makes sense to play stone as he is our player and actually had some of his better games so a really odd one to drop him now. Massey in at LWB / RWB isn’t brilliant. Still i think that 11 wins today if Wilson is 100% fit, would have preferred him up top with Harrison Personally. Think we have enough today to win.

Got the budget part right though (cutting back in Jan) that Taylor / Stevens thing never made an ounce of sense what side would sign a player on those terms

Going to watch on iplayer. The team looks a bit two games in quick succession. Worrall always starts for me, but DC has all the fitness stats. Think the team has craft up front and good legs. Need 110% today.

Odd team imo

I’m guessing that Stevens & Taylor won’t be able to play on Monday, hence their starts today. Worrall is presumably having his time managed as there’s a game on Monday. Wilson over Proctor so there aren’t two hold-up players up top.

Probably as Stone isn't very good

Well, Stone has had 2 of his best games in his last 2 games so had to be dropped. Just like Politic has not started since being MOM and scoring at Shrewsbury.

[philpvfc]

Hope I’m wrong, thought we’d lose today but after seeing the line up I’m revising it to getting stuffed today.

He isn’t, but at least he’s our player and probably had his two best performances of the season last two games. The timing makes no sense

Maybe not but why drop him after his 2 best games of the season, MOM at Pompey and arguably MOM against Cambridge?
