I’m unhappy with him as manager because home matches are the dullest for decades, he talks absolute <ovf censored> trying to pull the wool over supporters in his interviews, tactics are 1 dimensional and his in game management is poor. He talks like a coach, looks like a coach. Not a manager in a million years in my view.

7 points from 9 and still a section of fans want him out. That’s doesn’t bode well. Only going to be one winner, Carol and Flicker are delaying  the inevitable if the revenue is not generated.

The attendance Boxing Day is going to be an acid test, attendance ,performance and result.

I'm not going. Family first.

I know we had a dreadful run, but you can't fault 7 points out of the last 9 available. 

We are a much better team when our better players play. Looks like we were crap in midfield today, but scored an equaliser when our most talented striker came on. Football can be simple some times.

It's a very good away point played in really difficult conditions even if we weren't at our best. I felt embarrassed by some of our fans booing the players at the end .

Of course, all teams can be improved upon.  The other thing is that pretty much all clubs are on the lookout for strikers.  The point is though that we’re looking over our shoulders rather than looking up right now.  If, say, Derby don’t recruit well in January it might cost them an automatic place, or even a place in the playoffs, but they’re unlikely to be relegated.  It possibly depends on your definition of being “in the <ovf censored>”.

I d say not getting promotion again would be being in the <ovf censored> for Derby … sorry I just thought recruiting well in Jan and steering clear of injuries as as a recipe for avoiding the brown stuff would be bleeding obvious and tge same for all clubs.

Spot on. I won't be there. His post game interviews are an insult to those who can see what he can't. Anyway Boxing day gates will tell all sadly.

Just remember there's a human being, with a family, behind all your farmyard noises and toxic chanting. 

I didn’t join in the chants actually, although I’ll be honest I’m not far off that point.

Think it was more aimed at Crosby than the players tbh. I don’t blame any of the players for our atrocious performance today. It’s all tactical. Which is on the manager.

[Powerline]

I really don’t understand this view of oh we are mid table so everything’s ok. Yes we are, and I didn’t expect to be finishing any higher than that.

But it’s abundantly clear that the manager is not getting the best out of this group of players, and the football on show is on a level with aspin’s in terms of how boring it is. It’s rubbish. Why should we accept this just because we are mid table? I’m not expecting much in terms of quality football down vale, but by Christ I’d hope we can do better than this.

We got a point early on in the season we would have lost .

A point  aways always a good result .

People are byest but Loft put himself about more than Massey yesterday .

You can tell that Wilson can add that extra I thought the team that  finished the game were stronger than the team that started the game .

It was lovely goal really as Debrah won 2 headers tgen Bipepa put a ball in which was superb Garrities headed it and Wilson reacted superbly to pop it in ..

Looking forwards to Boxing day start with team who finished game there was far more go in them than starting team Debrah Lowe and Icavetti at the back straight away quickens our play up .

Walters kid or no can pass a ball and Bipepa is fast becoming a truly wonderful impact player. 

Wilson has the ability to drag teams out of position let's hope we beat Barnsley we owe them one .

Man of the match yesterday for Vale for me was Alfie Devine never hid kept passing it well .

We take the point as what omes around goes around .

Another game where we can't score from open play.

Freekick lumped into the box, kept alive, goal.

 

[ollyandpatch]

Just seen the interview. He looked embarrassed and kept saying 7 points from 9, 7 points from 9. 

Last night I posted we were garbage and the football was crap.

I have slept on it and actually think we were garbage and our football is crap but it won't stop me attending on Boxing day where I think we could get taken apart !!

Just watched the extended lowlights. 

Enough said.

Such a dull performance for me, James Wilson come on & within 15 secs he's glided past 2 players & hit the target. For me he was man of the match for that cameo alone so that says it all really. Thought Jesse did ok but apart from that the whole team was off it yesterday. Seen someone say Devine passed it well 🤔 he was terrible. 1 good game in 5 he's averaging he's that overrated. I'm not blaming everything on Ac as flickers has to take some of the responsibility as well & also Carol but an experienced manager in the dugout would make a hell of a difference. Crosby out!!!

[Bimbleabout]

Play well and lose, play not so well and draw moan moan moan
Its about time we s*** housed a point, after all we've had it done in reverse to us plenty of times.
Just for the record this isn't the worst we have played for 'decades'
As ever an important game boxing day, if just to stop the endless negativity on here. Heaven forbid we dare to lose,which is obviously what the gaffer and lads are desperate to do as they are so awful and clueless.

I think it was a game of two halves for Alfie. The first 45, yes, he was terrible and the game completely bypassed him. However, in the second half he really started to dictate the play and show flashes of excellence. 

With Ojo and the Blaster out for a number of weeks, it’s now time for Alfie to show his worth. I think some people forget that he is still 19-years-old, he’s going to be a little inconsistent. 

On yesterday, I was there and it was a pretty dull affair. The first 70 minutes were as bad as I’ve seen for a long, long time. I thought Wilson & Walters really changed the game.

The away end was pretty toxic for 90% of the match, and rightly so- the football is f*cking <ovf censored>.

Crosby really has uphill battle to win back the supporters, with 80% completely gone already.
