I agree. I hope he stays because it makes sense. Just hoping we can congratulate him on signing his first professional contract with Vale when he turns 18.

Hope Leon does not hold a grudge against the Vale (only kidding)

possibly 👍🏻 that's what we did with planty on his birthday 🥳

OMG, I’ve just seen that Uche miss… how did he not put that in 🤯 he’s got to work harder on his finishing, he occupies so much of the opposition defence, he’s like marking 2 players!

Lets pick and choose the games to include.

I guess if we win the silly trophy, you will not go to Wembley for the final or celebrate winning it or even acknowledge winning it

Well I haven't ignored it if I've mentioned it.

I don’t know about interest in either player do you?

No. I just wondered how you did.

Did the Vale fans boo last night when Massey scored?

I noticed him look at the fans and point to himself, no love lost there. He had a good game last night, albeit his final ball needs to improve. Could say that for a few of them though.

I don't blame him. Some Vale "fans" are poisonous tossers. I think the idiotic booing v Cheltenham has probably made some players less inclined to have much to do with the supporters. It's likely more an "us v the fans" feeling lately. 

I might understand it if there was a visible lack of effort or application, but can anyone really say that's been the case this season? Moreover, what on earth is booing players on to the pitch (Massey) supposed to achieve?

Oh, I see. I didn't see you'd quoted someone else's post that I had liked. No, not bothered in the slightest, I just liked the post. Tbh, I thought it was more pertinent to Vaillant than you but you do come across a tad curmudgeonly although, I know, you only say it as you see it.

Hope you are well by the way!

Agreed. Personally I never boo players but I can understand it if they lack effort. If they put in 100%, no matter how bad they are, there is no excuse to boo. Massey has put in 100% this season no question.

Uche has only just finished a full game for us now his fitness levels are there with more game time goals will come it's just a confidence thing now an even without them we look a stronger team with him in it let be honest he scares the crap out of most of the cb in this league
