Couldn't agree more Osh - we need to become much harder to beat, whatever that takes.  Once we concede, I just can't see us winning - not enough goals in the team.  A clean sheet would be wonderful. 

But it's catch 22 if we sit back and defend we'll get battered with our dodgy defending,we may.as well set up to have a go at the opposition and get in there faces 🤔 UTV

Reading home form last 6: W4, D2, L0

Vale away form last 6: W1, D2, L3

Can't see past another defeat. We're shocking, especially at the back. Obviously quite happy to be proved wrong!!!

Can we have the start of the new manager bounce tonight, please 🙏🏻

Moore will sort the defending out. That will give us a chance. I fully expect the gaffer and his team, coupled with a formation change and returning players, to turn this around.

Let’s go Valiants. No expectations so give it everything and get a result.

If Reading have a weak point it's their keeper. He looked dreadful against Portsmouth, but will we have anyone who can get a shot on target?

How we all live in hope,I just hope fans give DM time(i know we dont have a lot of that and it might even be next season but time he needs) as none of this is his mess and none are his players,IF he does keep us up then imo that will be a monumental effort.

I dont really expect anything tonight at all so lose and it wont be a shock to me or the end of the season,the following 2 home games will say more to me on where we could end up at the end of the season.

Stay up and then lets hope they allow DM to build his own squad for League One

Go down then lets hope they allow DM to build a squad to get us up at the first attempt

Either way we are all Vale and lets give it our all to back the lads

Mighten gets his start.

Good to see Garrity on the bench

[Diego Maradona]

Any ideas on formation?

[Vtid]

Jones 🫣 Where’s Lopata? Was our best defender last game or 2! Good to see Mighten given a start come on Darren’s cheeky white dalmatians 💪🏻

If that is a back 4 I might just cry tears of happiness.

[JoeB2]

4 at the back according to Radio Stoke.
