I assume that those mocking this post have waved the white flag with 15 games remaining? That's resilience for you. A good job we've got a manager who believed his team could come back from 4-0 down to win the playoffs.

15 games, I'd honestly and genuinely be surprised if we manage to win more than 2.

Player wise tonight.

Tom Sang. Jason Lowe. Ryan Loft. All take a long look at yourself in the mirror. And ask yourself, are you a professional footballer.

Loft is awful. Just keep him off the park. He isn’t going to get us any goals to keep us up so as a supposed striker we are carrying him.

Lowe is garbage as a midfielder. Just go to Moore and say “gaffer my legs have gone.

Sang ain’t much better. Stick him at right back. He’s crap. Stick him at wing back. He’s crap. Nowhere else to go for him. He’s just crap.

May as well put Lowe at right back going forward. He’s the best of a bad bunch. Garrity up top. And then put Mr Blobby in the middle of the park if he’s still about, over Lowe.

Honestly. I mean….. What an absolute <ovf censored> mess Carol has got us in!! 

Called Sang our very own Phil Neville a while ago. 

Not got a position. Willing and able to play anywhere but in the main extremely mediocre. A filler in.

After how bad we’ve been I’d be surprised if we win one. We don’t score and concede shed loads.

I remember as a Kid the whole ground breaking out in a slow handicap and following it up with a chant of " What a load of rubbish " of course I know that wouldn't be tolerated in these days of delicate sensibilities and wokeness but it would get the message across to Carol she's being conned by Flitcroft and we as supporters are fed up to the back teeth of it.

You already know the answer to that

Yes our Marvellous Director of Football and Recruitment Team will, no problem !

Remember Carol says we are getting Championship Ready.

Is it too early for a retained list thread?

There's a few I can't see getting another EFL club after being released or booted out through mutual termination. Doesn't that just say it all about our top recruitment system.

Still yet to see Jason Lowe pass forward from midfield. 

He’d be no where near the starting eleven of any other League One team.

Same for Loft, Sang, Smith, Massey, Jones, Grant, I could go on and on.

Positives 4 at the back untill Jones left we look better -Mighty looks a handful - Loft worked hard missed a sitter but he’s deffo playing for the shirt -sang decent game .

Negatives- Toothless in front of goal - no luck undone by a wonder goal -Connor Grant -lack of left back options

Carol, I never, ever thought I'd find myself saying this but if you don't start to see David Flitcroft for what he is, Port Vale could well die on your watch.

That could end up being your legacy.

The team that got us up was a much better side than this.

We've played two seasons at league one level with a side much inferior to our league Two team.

Have we even taken it <ovf censored> seriously since we got promoted?

Ripley, Ojo, Devine and Arblaster are the only players we've signed that would've gotten a shirt in that squad since we came up.

And two of those only played 6 months, not being our players.

That is David Flitcrofts fault.  He is the director of football.  He puts the squad together.

I don't blame most of the players.  It's ability and numbers (lack of both) that have us where we are now.

I cannot believe the optimism I had for the Vale when you took over.  The joy brought by the promotion (the 4th in the 35 years I've been following the Vale. 

The wave that created and have we ridden that wave?  Have we capitalised one bit on that?  Christ no!!!  

Instead you've allowed that absolute pillock to turn us in to a soulless training ground for top tier loan signings.

Brilliant, thats Port Vale to you is it?

I honestly believe that you do not give one stuff about actual supporters.  Your actions are saying just that in not just keeping faith with that utter madman, but actually lording him up to the supporters.  Telling us off for daring to become disillusioned at his apparent long termism.

Long term?  Jesus!!!  We're back to whence we came next season.  Its absolute failure and the most infuriating part is that it was so, so avoidable.

I feel absolutely pig sick.

 

Pig sick me too. Thanks Carol for agreeing with him and letting it roll on and on.

Just to remind you of Flitcroft and the recruitment team. This is what they have given us :

Loft, Sang, Uche, Grant, Lowe, Iacovitti, Debrah, Wilson

loans : Thomas, Gore, Williams, Weir, Mighten, Williams

young lads : McDermott, Shorrock, Walters, Dipepa, Lomax, even Plant. Sorry all too soon for the amount they have played this season. Filling the squad but not good enough yet. Hopefully they will be one day !!

Should have kept Benning Wozza and Pett at least they had a heard for our club !!

If Stoke and Crewe are in League 1 next year, and we're in League 2, I'm going to find it extremely difficult.

Get ready JoeB2. Its going to happen

What’s more worrying is the players we have I actually think are decent will not drop to league 2. No chance Ripley, Chislett, garrity or Ojo are with us next season.

Most of them are still under contract for next season. So, we are are going to be a little bit stuck
