Imo obviously the cost to terminate the services of either individuals. Can’t see DM having players that aren’t picked by himself or his backroom team. At the moment DM has come to us following an unsuccessful time at Huddersfield, so he’ll want to be in charge of his own destiny. Where as, AC definitely wasn’t and was always going to be the one to go.

No one has mentioned the structure of the club changing, DM seems to be happy with the forward plans of the club and has agreed a 5 year contract. No mention of any changes to the  Recruitment Department of the club. Expanding the club according to the owner requires a DoF so I cant see that changing for a few years. A DoF when selecting a manager will expect that he will be able to establish a working relationship with him, as will a manager accepting a post at a club with a DoF? What happened elsewhere is in the past.

Whatever, your views of Flitcroft I hope everyone stays behind the team tomorrow even if we are losing. As we did midweek.

My fear is our ex players and Manager on a mission. A win for them would be massive because Vale sacked Clark and let Pett, Lloyd and most worryingly Taylor go.  Matty was recovering from injury when at Vale and DC seems to have him very much sharper now.

I would be delighted with a point. But I doubt we will be able to stand up to the pressure they, like Carlisle and Fleetwood, will put us under.

I’m probably in the minority here and everyone is entitled to their own opinion but I think DF comes across as honest and knowledgeable in the latest podcast. Yes he has the spiel but in modern football I think, in his position, you have to. I really don’t agree with him getting personal abuse and whoever the perpetrators need to take a look at themselves and think how they’d like to be on the receiving end of it in their job. 
Carol sees far more of him than any fan and sets his objectives so if she’s happy with him th then so am I. Personally he’s exceeded my expectations in getting DM as Manager and I hope it’s enough to keep us up. I’ll be there next season regardless but I do think the club has moved forward massively off the pitch they now need to match this progress off it and for that there needs to be unity throughout the club.

FLITCROFT OUT!!    If DM is answering to that coward , it’s National League. 

[Walka003]

Can't wait to hear more about the campus, honestly it's going to be brilliant

[Walka003]

Oh and the t zone. What a facility that is.

[Killersrevenge44]

Does any one know how much that idiot who was speaking with Flitcroft at the training ground gets paid to be a full time scout?

 

And whilst we are on the subject...what quaifications do you need?

[Tamworth]

Are we allowed to suggest it might not be a bad idea to ask our Director of Football to move on to his next challenge again yet?

Sarcasm apart, someone needs to be accountable for the situation. It may not be entirely his fault but as we keep being told he's in charge of all things football, then he's failing badly.

We must ensure our survival in this Division and that means considering any available options. This simply can't go on.

[Old fort]

Bottom line is, Flitcroft has assembled this abysmal squad and must take sole responsibility. As for the plaudits that he's got for attracting DM, we wouldn't have needed him if Flittcroft hadn't decimated and weakened the squad. All that hard work and progress is now warm, yellow and running down the wall in the form of a long thin stream.

I can only judge people as I find so I'll be honest, I don't understand where all this hatred for the bloke comes from off fans. OK some of the transfer activity as been crap with regards to Stikers ect, but he can only spend what Carol gives him. H The prob I think for him, is some fans will always be up Pope's backside and so once Pope did that interview slatting Flitcroft he's always been onto a loser.

I am now resigned to being League 2 ready . Yes , I am angry with over 80% of vale supporters knowing what is wrong at our club,  but being taken for idiots and totally ignored by our Carol . The recruitment over 3 transfer windows by DF is tragic and laughable . DF was told we needed strikers but let strikers go instead --Ellis Harrison and Matty Taylor were at the club but left with no replacements . I cannot understand how Carol can write a letter in praise of kryptonite . Any other appointment would have done a better job --she completely ignores his OBVIOUS FAILURES and it is now 4 staff leaving  due to DF recruitment putting them on mission impossible . The penny will soon drop with DM --then what ?.

I judge people as I find them too, but I judge employees on performance and his has fallen massively short, as displayed by the main KPI, namely, the league table, which is determined by the product on the field.

Another braindead post. But never expect anything other from you Andy after meeting you.

Hes wasted the best part of 7k a week on Uche and Loft. That’s roughly 350k a year. Plus the fee he paid for Loft. That’s 400k of the budget spunked.

And you don’t understand why he gets the grief he does??????

Stick to driving taxis because you are clueless about basic numbers and facts about football.
