Agreed. I remember when we first went down under Bratt and we were going to places like Barnet etc. Home matches against those clubs were flat. League 2 is where established league clubs like us go to die. 
 

Our playoff win was different. We believed it was the start of better things. Relegation this time won’t be. 

Exactly, atmosphere with a 5% or less attendance in the Bycars is not something I'm looking forward to.

But, it might not happen, as someone said after a generous liquid lunch.

A lot of predictions are guesswork as was the post I was responding to which said that our gates will not decrease much even if we get relegated. It’s a fair presumption we will go down rather than total guesswork and even said I am guessing when estimating the current drop in attendances, which I’ve just checked and we are 11% down on last season home attendances and 29% down on away following, so I wasn’t far off. Plus I never gave any reason why attendances have and will continue to drop, I just predicted they would so get your head out of your ass and post something useful rather that might actually agree or disagree.

Hahahaha...you're a tool! Everything you've posted as "fair presumption" is total guesswork! Where have you seen your attendance figures?...crystal ball or crystal <ovf censored>? I would certainly question the away figure, as we seem to be doing well there - as for making predictions without reason, I think it's you who has your head up your arse? As for posting something useful - you have no idea how to start doing that!

Again……adding nothing to the debate. Have you run out of anything to say? Total guesswork we are going down!!  You are showing yourself to be the tool, it will be a miracle we stay up, even the bookies are totally guessing we are going down. You’re just making yourself look like a right knob going on the attack without even giving any opinion.

 More accurate than your guesswork that crowds won’t dip much after relegation. They already have, which goes to prove your guesswork is pretty <ovf censored>. 

Read my post again, I’ve not guessed anything.  You’re the one guessing crowd numbers and league positions.

[Birches Head Fred]

Now now children, Happy thoughts only please.
We need everyone fully behind the team, no matter what we think the future holds, 3 points on Saturday may well go a long way to securing our League One status.
If not, it's not the end of the World, as Doris (and we fans) sing...."Que Sera Sera".

Why is not guessing….you said the vast majority will still turn up, even if relegated. I can’t see how this is no more guess work than myself predicting home fans will go down to 3-4k next season as we sit in the lower half of division 2. By your reckoning we will be pulling in around 5,000 home fans next season which I cannot see.

The vast majority will turn up, that’s not guesswork it’s based on recent history at that level where the home average floated around 4500 with the biggest part of this being made up of home fans as the away followings are generally dire.  I asked where you got 3000 from?  I’m still waiting on the answer to that one, but you’ve now changed tack and it’s become 3-4K so I guess that says you were wrong first time.  You’re also guessing we’ll be in the lower half of the table before a ball has been kicked.

I think we will if they do it alphabetically...

Said it here lots of times. This forum has a Happy Clapper clique, and I don't need to name them, and them constantly accepting utter crap and also patting Carol on the back along the way no matter what she does, they're as much to blame in many ways for this absolute <ovf censored> show.

I'm not sure if you're exactly aware of this Valiiant, but this thread is indeed for the "Happy Clapper clique" - I'm fairly sure the thread title is a bit of a givaway.

 Also, you don't need to name us, we know who we are thanks.

I think you will also find there were over 5000 fans there today, some were Happy Clappers, some weren't but they all have been "accepting utter crap" for the majority of this season and last - are those that aren't Happy Clappers also to blame (in many ways) ?

I'm not talking about everyone on this thread. But there are a number of people who constantly refuse to accept any form of criticism that's directed at the owners, managers and even the players. Instead preferring to spout crap about getting behind the boys and trying to patronise anyone that dares not shower Carol and co with nothing but praise and admiration.

I didn’t  like what’s gone on many times before ,Ive marched with the black and gold and protested , and I don’t like what is going on now . BUT PLEASE  tell me what are YOU PERSONALLY ,going to do about this predicament i look forward to hearing your ideas , probably make things better by shouting abuse from the the terrace , then turn up hypocritically for the next game ,or are you not  going to be a Vale fan because we got relegated ?  I’ve seen this many times before, I think 7 promotions and this could be my 8th relegation since I’ve been going to watch my team , I’ve seen some shyte down the vale some real shyte , you choose to slag off all and sundry here on a forum , I may think the same as you but I don’t do this , it achieves ABSOLUTELY NOTHING  ,so does that make me a “happy clapper “ or a just a Vale fan …….till I die.

I'm not sure why miseryguts would want to come on here, and try to drag us down to their level? Can't they just accept that people have different opinions and live their lives with them? And to apportion any amount of blame to Happy Clappers doesn't take into account the bitchiness and division caused by "The Negs" So - just leave us alone...you won't change our minds regardless what happens! We are Vale, too! VTID KTF TTP
