Don't be ridiculous.... we won't score 2.

They will though

Two own goals for us?

Listening to Ben Garrity on radio sjoke saying there are loads of leaders in the dressing room.  However, all I can say is they go missing when they go on the pitch.

Says they are fighting for Div 1 status.  Well I would hate to see you not fighting - you lot must be horizonal and not moving.

Love how the match thread has dropped off the main page 10 mins before kick off.

Well, that’s reduced the forum by 95%!!

The negativity is absolutely disgusting. We might be having a poor season but I think it’s only fair to have a reset before each game. Darren Moore has a hell of a job on his hands and he has inherited a team low on confidence. How can any one be a true fan by writing us off before kick off. ?

My idea of what being a Vale fan is, seems to differ to a lot of maudlin, defeatist numbskulls who think it is a good idea to write us off before we have kicked a ball this evening. 

Sad.

Ok. I’m going to try and see the positives in that line up.

I’m guessing it’s 4-4-2 (or 4-4-1-1 with Garrity behind Wilson). Two wide men (Massey & Mighten) and two holding MF in Ojo and Lowe. Jones & Sang two more attacking FB’s. That looks a decent set-up and what we’ve all craved after the tedium of 3-5-2, right?

However…..

That back four looks unbelievably weak and there is not a hope in hell of keeping a clean sheet tonight. 

Jason Lowe in CM….need I say more….unless……

Jason Lowe at RB (assuming Sang is CM)….🫣

I don’t expect anything tonight. We will lose.

However….and I repeat…. this is not on Moore! 

I get the furore about Chislet, but at the end of the day he’s an inferior version of Garrity, so who you going to go with, as you can’t have both in that system? 

So, pick the system to fit your best players I hear people cry. Well that’s fine but we’ve then got gaping holes elsewhere. In short, there are leaks springing up all over that there’s only one man to blame for that….and I think we all know who that is. 

So I applaud Moore for trying to find a winning formula, as much as it’s rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.

And I sense those the ‘lucky’ few who’ve travelled are going to need a few pints of it come 10.00pm.

Vale or Eastenders…..🤔

Que sera sera, whatever will be will be.......I hope me spelling is right, I know me grammar isn't.

Tonight's going to be interesting to see how DM approaches this. We really do have nothing to lose now. I'd rather lose 6.2 than succumb to another 2.0 defeat having not got out of our own half. Hope DM sees it the same way.

Probably benched because he hasn’t been good enough.

Could still be a back 3 of lowe, smith and debs?

Wow what a tuesday stat.  Not winning for 2 years if we lose tonight according to Radio Sjoke.

Come on Vale.
