If Reading escape the drop, I'd still be going nuts with the league over allowing them to sign players like Smith and Knibbs. They should NEVER have been allowed to assemble the squad they have given what's happened. It's basically cheating someone else out of a league one place. Relegation minimum punishment is what they should get.

I never got the "love in" with Reading. If the shoe was on the other foot Southern clubs would not give a monkeys chuff.

3 league wins from 29 takes some doing? It's March on Friday I wonder if we could go a whole calendar year without winning a game?

FLITCROFT OUT......

At least Chelt lost tonight. Wish Darrell well but not at Vale's expense, even if it is just clutching at straws.

Might as well close this soon or maybe put a poll up on which game we'll be relegated.

I'll go April fools day ( quite apt ) at Northampton.

We could start it again next season in league 2 😬

Peterbrough away would do me with only a handful of Vale fans there. Hope it's not at home.

I felt a sense of greater jeopardy tonight. Fleetwood are a good side. I don't know why they are second bottom. 

The one thing I can take is the central defence played well v Fleetwood until eventually making a mistake caused by the incessant pressure.

Warren they aren't. 

The league table tells you how good they are.

The Port vale benevolent society made them look good.

Leave the thread open for this time next year

I simply don't agree. They are a better side than Lincoln last weekend. You can see this not from what PV are doing, but the pace they can play the ball round at with accuracy. 

As I say, I don't know what's been going on - but I guess liquidity issues affecting morale don't help.

Apart from Ripley I would take every Fleetwood player over our bunch on tonight's showing.

You're basing it on one game.

Lincoln are 10th on 51 points. Fleetwood 23rd on 28 points yet Fleetwood are better ?

Fleetwood looked on a par to Middlesbrough to me. Well above our level. Hence I don't get the booing of our players.
