2 players offside and not much movement in the box when the ball was played, that is terrible officiating.

I'm not sure it would be wise to have Ripley on the halfway line when defending a corner.

He may as well do because for a keeper his size he is completely useless at defending corners or set plays.

People seem to think he is the business.

He has let in over 100 goals in 2 Seasons and will have been relegated in both those seasons.

Mind you wait a minute-relegations from League 1- Chislett,Weir,Clark,Smith-yet Port Vale think these are League One Players.

6th worse in the World across the top leagues since September. The whole wide world. Let that sink in [emoji52][emoji19]

I really thought yesterday was going to be different for some reason. The clear the air meeting with the fans on Monday, the lads going away for a few days bonding, the fact we have to win surely sometime… everything suggested it was going to be our day and we win and put some pressure on the three sides above us. How wrong was I. Another awful start to a football match where yet again we find ourselves 1-0 down and I thought Ripley was poor for their goal and should’ve got a strong hand on it. 
 

garritys chance looked tough from the back of the railway where I was but Wilson’s miss was a shocker. Why didn’t he take it further forward and then shoot? He looked like he ended up scuffing his shot also. Hes absolutely awful and stealing a wage. The whole clubs a mess and they need a way to find some cash and pay a large chunk of these players off because I’m certain this side goes down again next season. 
 

admit you’re wrong Carol and get rid of him and give us a chance. I know you haven’t got a clue about football as you keep telling us, but surely you can see that this squad is the worst weve had for a fair few years and it’s happened on your ownership.  We’ve lasted two seasons in this league and both have been a struggle. Something clearly hasn’t worked with yours and flitcrofts master plan. Fans are losing interest rapidly and the gates will hover around the 4,000 mark next season. Take away the huge away followings and the clubs set to lose a staggering amount of money which was completely unavoidable with a couple of decent players brought in and probably getting rid of Crosby earlier. To bring Moore in when the window shut was quite laughable even by our standards 
 

i think you shouldve said the “FANS” were phenomenal, and not the gutless blokes who turn out pretending the be professional footballers each week for for our badge 

Sort it out !

Yes I also thought we would win at last yesterday for our superb and supportive fans . Three points instead of a free drink would have been oh so much more preferable! I didn't have the free drink as i had no intention of taking money from the clubs coffers . Please give us a win or two instead!

Looks like we should have had a ‘handball ‘ pen as well.

We're really clutching at straws.

We lost end of story. Again.

Their fans thought we should have had a penalty when Smith was wrestled to the ground first half according to their forum

Just watched the highlights, Shrewsburys second goal was way offside.

I watched it this morning and I thought Smith was playing them onside, he was late in getting out. Just bad defending all round for that goal

With my dodgy VAR I think there is a case there. Unfortunately with crap officials and no official VAR the case is closed.

Its not as clear cut as people may think. There are 2 of our players in front of Ripley and I think smith is playing the lad on that scored.

I too passed up the free drink offer, however my reasons were very different to your own.  I now only drink alcohol on match days due to soft drinks and warm beverages not blurring my vision or numbing my senses enough.

I thought Smith was their Best Attacker.

Never mind our Brilliant Manager rates him, he aligns with the Process.

Just mentioning Moore - I have never had less confidence in a manager ever and I started watching Vale when Freddie Steele was in charge.

Moore stated in his interview/ or whatever it was supposed to be that 2nd Half we got further up the pitch.

Well Darren we were 2-nil down against Shrewsbury Town ?

The Bloke is a Tactical Genius !

We need to give the manager a chance to sort out the mess.its easy to start blaming individual players how can we progress with no strikers one is useless and the other prone to injury we need a rid out, give the young players a go.i can watch better Sunday league games better than shrew game

Why are people talking about Colin Garlick and Flitcroft in the same breath?

Garlick's job was not to identify players and sign them which is Flitcroft's role.

They do totally different jobs.

 

Garlick was good at his job  and 

Fraudcroft is shyte at his job , mate

But the Individual Players are the Problem!

The Club at the minute on the Footballing Front could hardly be worse apart from the Academy Side Improving.

Everybody needs to hold their Hands up and be Accountable.

Carol Shanahan is the Owner and all decisions are down to her. 
She has got us in this Mess and has to get us out of it, unless she sells up or walks away.

As they say Watch This Space !
