We have Loft up front, Lowe in midfield, a midfielder at right-back and Dan Jones back at left-back once again. If you're content with the state of things because we're currently doing alright against another toothless side... I just don't share that optimism. 

He ain't happy

Not many are

But we've got try and get behind the team to get some points

 

Loft wouldn't be so bad if he had a Stephen McPhee up front with him, playing off him. He could be a poorer version of Steve Brooker.

Ffs I’m not happy about some of the players we have in this squad but I’m trying my best to get behind them. I will judge after the 90mins on reflection of the game. My point being you said results are important not the performance that was less than a week ago! Now your wanting entertaining football. Which one is it??? I’d more than happily take a draw tonight. Right now we’re level

They’re all doing well so far tonight.

And that's all well and good. I don't argue that at all. But I stand by my original point that our starting 11 at the back end of the season is abysmal, and we know the people who are responsible for that.

I was stating the corner was poor not taking the piss out of a player when he’s done nothing wrong. Singling Loft out when he’s doing alright he’s not done anything bad as of yet 

Go put your toys back in your pram you mard-arse   if you dish it out expect some back in return jeez what a snowflake .

Whatever happens for the rest of the game I've seen enough in half an hour to tell me if we don't go back to wingbacks again it will be too soon. 

Just need to be careful of Readings threat out wide. Seems to be where most of their best work is coming.

Flitcroft out thread is that way - -

Wish the Radio Sjoke commentator wouldn't get so excited by their players nearly scoring.  Does my head in.  Save it for our players going for goal

Fans have been saying switch to a back four for months and guess what we seem more comfortable with that formation.

Come on Vale.

This isn't overly pretty, much appears a bit better than the dirge we've come to expect.  At least it's a game of football.
