Have you had a loft conversion?

😁

[chickensteve]

Can't go this one, I've got to work Tuesday night and frankly I am not begging to lose the hours which I have done for previous matches. I predict a highly toxic Lorne street where the right hand side hand dryer in the men's bogs has not worked for 3 seasons and won't on Tuesday either.

SURELY last chance sallon for Crosby and CO......!!

No he's got loads of chances yet (19 of them) with the DoF and Owner not wanting to say they messed up.  Then the owners saying she messed up with the choice of DoF.

Can only see a Orient win and they will not break out of a walk through our midfield and defence.

Vale possession - 65%.

Goal Attempts - 8   

On Target - 1

Goals - 0

 

Orient Attempts - 4

On Target - 3

Goals 2

But what if you can’t get 3 up because of the ref?!!

We can’t get 3 nil up because of our players

But would have experience, ability to change a game once it’s started, not set up the same way every single game,  able to motivate this underperforming group, play players in the right position & so on. The very least we’d get is a new manager bounce & a happy forum for at least a week 😀

We never seem to get the new manager bounce though. Didn’t it take Clarke about 10 games before he won?

[Andy Proctor]

We will get thrashed only good thing will be nobody will be there to see it. lowest crowd of the season and heaviest home defeat of the season 0-4 loss.

Just for clarity please.

When people are referring to the defence containing The Big Pole or the Pole.

I think it'd probably be more of a distraction than our defenders have been.

Bit left field yes. But I'm in.

I picked a back 4

But Grant is not a left back. He’s always played left midfield or LWB throughout his career and given his woeful defensive efforts yesterday, there’s no way I’d play him there.

All the swapping and changing Saturday, not signing any forwards, signing a winger tells me that we don't have any direction. So, just faffing about with a couple of formations. But as you would expect, there's going to be square pegs in round holes:

First up: 4231

                              Rips

Sang.           Jesse.        Polish.      Jones (if he is still alive)

                         Ojo         Grant (as I'm told Gore is out)

Massey.                Chiz.                 Mighten

                             Wilson

Second up: 433

                              Rips

Sang.          Jesse.     Polish.      Jones

                         Ojo

                                      Weir

                          Chiz

Massey.              Wilson.        Mighten

I quite liked how Portsmouth played the 4231. Two decent holding midfielders and two quick wide men. Problem is we'll go 352 and not have a shot on goal. Feel like we're directionless.

Gore has been ruled out for the famous ‘ 2 weeks ‘

Working Tues night so at present will not be in attendance 

Too much of a rush finish game at 20 to 10 be work by 10 I'd go in a hr later but I'm.not really bothered about going after watching the last home game .

It was absolutely terrible,yesterday took terrible too a new level , mind you I am on standby for night off if get it off may go,  but even then I say  because of last 2 performances and think do they deserve my support I'd say if your a season ticket holder you already paid your way I have twice for me and my lad so if I don't attend financially doesn't matter.

I lose out the club ain't and I haven't wasted my time going if those 2 last performances are a guide to Tuesdays game then we already lost.

But football doesnt work like that .

So hope they win and if we get a early goal  be the team to only go in opposition half twice in one half and score with first raid then gain confidence from that to what they should do destroy Leyton Orient.
