Not happy but still clapping.

Two fks given 'big' Brian. People don't dance to your merry tune, you resort to ridicule, just like to 10 year old lads crying at games when Vale lose.
You literally can't handle it. Bless ya

How you applaud that week in week out, is beyond belief.

Some of those players are picking up 8 thousand pound a month. 
 

So sadly, that is the definition of a “happy clapper”.

Nobody claps angrily. And if you clap even though you’re not happy then you’re robotic and accept the utter crap you’re given week in week out.

By clapping these robbing useless clowns on the pitch, and the club in general, you will never get the change we so desperately need. 
 

These performances are not acceptable.

I try to remain positive but how anybody could clap that embaressment of a performance is beyond me.  I'm not someone who is going to get angry and aggressive at our own players but i did boo the performance as it was completely unacceptable on every level.  But surely you cant applaud it.  That assumes there was plenty of effort there which there just wasnt today.  First time under Darren Moore I have said that too.  You just leave quietly.  I mean what were you actually applauding the few who did.  That they turned up for the coach on time and managed to put their kit on correctly?  Genuinely would like to know.

Those that stayed and clapped off the team yesterday did it to thank the players for turning up for the coach on time, getting themselves dressed and running on the pitch for the warm up. It cannot be for anything that happened once the match started !!

To a man the performance was shocking.

I was not ridiculing you. I should have explained when I saw the post that  conceding ridiculous goals still rings true 7 months on. Maybe even more ridiculous if you include Nathan Smiths fee kick v Lincoln and Debrah's header v Fleetwood

You do not clap off rubbish you get up and leave the ground that's what I do and have being regularly doing since Jan 23 .

I'm not inclined clap poor displays from people who are on way more money than me and I have work night shifts just survive .

Those who do clap fair play .

Those who have loved these players for years and they consistently lose badly not going down fighting at any point well I suppose the saying is you get your just desserts .

And will my stopping clapping bring that about? The club will do what the club does. When change comes, if I think it's for the better then I'll applaud that as well. Until then, there is <ovf censored> all either you or I can do.

seem to remember back in the 60s and 70s occasionally if dross was being served the crowd would start a slow hand clap, It always seemed a more damning critic than booing, rather more posh than that.

The fans are the ones that pay the wages . There is a lot that they can do. If Carol Shanahan , with all due respect, is on her high horse and stands by Flitcroft next season , there’s a problem. She’s a smart business woman , and fair play to her for achieving what she has , but if she talks down to the fans / community like a schoolteacher, there’s a problem. It seems that there is already a divide there. I don’t expect the club to tell us everything , but right now the fans are being treated badly, and it’s going to get worse next season. When we get relegated , Vale won’t be back in League One for a good few years , in my opinion. Darren Moore and Flitcroft are joined at the hip , and Carol Shanahan thinks Flitcroft can do no wrong. 
That kind of stubbornness , and not wanting to be proved wrong, can only lead to disaster. 
I’m a long way from Burslem, and my opinion doesn’t hold as much water as many on here , particularly those who go home and away for years, but I can see this ending very badly for Port Vale. It’s toxic both on and off the pitch at the moment , and if something isn’t done , we’ll find ourselves in the National League before long. That may seem impossible , but no club has a divine right to say where they should be . They have to earn it. The work ethic of this current side wouldn’t earn them a job in a butchers  shop , yet alone another club. It’s disgraceful, and a slap in the face to the fans. How they can go home with a wage packet and hold their heads up is beyond me.  I wonder what Roy Sproson would think ?  A true servant , like many others. Sorry for the long ramble , but I’ve never seen the club like this in my 55 years following the Vale.  Sometimes it only takes one bad apple , and that’s Flitcroft. Spunk Trumpet is spot on in his posts . Flitcroft is a narcissist, and I fear he will take the club down with him . Then he’ll go back to the family business, and we’ll be left with  the crumbs of a football club. I sincerely hope that I’m proved wrong.

2k per week, I’d imagine most of them are, bar the young kids.
