Football Forum to take place in the Valiant Suite on Thursday 1st June 2023 | News | Port Vale

Finally facing the fans after DC's sacking and the capitulation post Jan. I'll be there, hopefully they don't just have submitted questions and actually open it to the floor.

Just submitted questions. You have give your name telephone number the lot.

It’s good they’re doing this. Would have thought it’d be a good idea to have Croz there as well given he’s only just got the gig.

Thing is, if people come and slaughter the appointment it's gonna be a bit awkward for him to sit there and listen too.

I can understand that questions have to be submitted along with contact details of the person submitting them.

This ensures that someone with a grievance that is only applicable to them doesn't hijack the evening.

I suspect that the valid submitted questions will be answered as openly as possible but some posters, IMHO, think in this day and age they have 'a right to know' when in fact they don't.

You got it, will only answer questions they want and will have had time to look at them.

Can totally understand asking for questions early - at least they may answer them properly after a bit of research has been done.

Wonder if the Club can livestream it for those of us not able to make it - as we live too far away?

It makes sense to do it as to be honest I daresay most of the questions will be different variants around recruitment so it may end up them repeating themselves otherwise.

In reality all I want to know is about how they’ intend to use the loan market better than they have done (or at least not end up with 7 on the books many of whom were not up to scratch) and also how they intend to address the area they’ve probably been most unsuccessful in at the keeper position.

Brilliant. Love this initiative from the club to put Flickers front and centre so fans can get all of the facts.

[Warren]

Looks a positive approach. I think it is essential the club moves past the last 5 months on the pitch and can talk up realistically 2023/24 season. This is a good and timely way to do it. 

I think fans accept the club won't ever have it easy in L1 and skilled management is needed to climb the table. But some gross mistakes were made in the transfer windows last season and they want assurance that will be handled better. As in avoid a FGR style crash dive to relegation. 

But I can't go!

I’m not a serial moaner but 6-30 pm start is too early for me to get there

I think it's because of the negativity towards Flickers which is why it's being done to give a better insight into 1/ what his role really entails 2/ sell us the dream for the new season and beyond.

Croz will get lots of opportunities.

[Jesse James]

Think it is a step forward however, likely to be a bit staged & plastic unfortunately but, good from the club & gives Flickers his moment to justify himself!

Fair play Carol, we desperately need this.

Get @JoeB2 in part time around his full time career.
