League 2 preparation

Bromley will be a handful next year... Another Stevenage outfit. Tough. 

[fuzzyvalefan]

Bromley it is next season then. Hell of a game.

A shocker of a journey down there too. Pity it wasn’t Solihull. 

[Powerline]

Bloody hell why did it have to be Bromley! Absolute trek and a half.

Miles away.

They’re going to have a job be ready for the new season as they currently have a plastic pitch so will have to rip that up. They just scream out beating us in some humiliating fashion at VP next season.

No idea if you're trying to be funny. If you are give it a rest. You need some help in the humour department.

Nothing to do with the 7-0 no? Or any of the other 22 games we lost 🙄

The new Sutton. Horrible, physical and 80 fans in the away end.

Oh well

Probably everything to do with that. Also losing to Burton at home was a real turning point.

Sounds like you never grew up then in the 70's around Burslem, where gangs went around and would stop kids and ask them what colour they supported.  Say the wrong colour you were either hit or said good choice.  Go for neither, you just ended up being hit.  You would scan the group for clues.  No knives or wooden poles, just a thump and they would move on to the next unexpecting kid.  Probably still goes on in some areas, just now they don't use fists anymore.

Going to watch Sjoke up their ground, we would park on Mitch car park and walk to the ground from the car.  The police instantly separated the 4 of us, even after seeing us all get out of the same car and laughing and joking.  

A lot of the older people have been brought on that, so yes sjoke stayed up - oh well there is always next year they can come down 🤣.  They have always been the rich kids on the block and favoured by the council.  My family were sjoke fans and I was just the Vale fan, following the best team in my eyes.  Mates were sjoke fans and would have banter with them.  Don't condone the fighting between groups and will speak to sjoke fans just like any other fan-not their fault they chose the wrong team. 🤣

On holidays or away with work around the world would speak to them and have banter with them when they were wearing their red deck chair colours, by saying to them that reminds me I need to get some cleaning cloths and that shirt reminded me.  They would smile and say your a Vale fan and we would have a laugh and joke chatting to each other.  The way it should be fans getting on with each other.

Each season, you hoping they would go down and they do the same thing hoping Vale would go down.  

I grew up in Ball Green / Norton in the 70s and I don’t remember any of that going on. Few Stoke lads at Ball Green but they didn’t get any mither other than banter.
