If you look at the highest earners at the vale 

Uche is on £4500. & Ojo £4300 

Wages have been wasted on mediocrity

The blame lies at the door of Fraudcroft 

Please tell me this isnt true? 

We made Uche the highest paid player in the squad?

This in itself is reason for him to be sacked. Never mind paying money for loft.

Avoiding the crap on the first couple of replies the obvious answer is that she hasn’t given him or us a competitive budget to work with. This is why she doesn’t put the blame on him because he was trying to build a competitive league 1 team on a mid table league 2 budget. 

If it was any other way wouldn’t she have got rid of him given the circumstances? The most obvious answer is usually the right one. Forget all this she’s been hoodwinked or gaslit. They are just ridiculous accusations. 

Avoiding the crap you’ve spurted, Carol has given plenty of support in bringing players in and we have seen plenty of players come in. She has just allowed DF to waste more of her money by bringing in a whole coaching staff - no one can say she hasn’t supported fully those doing their jobs. Unfortunately she has put her trust in the wrong man.

if those figures are true for our strikers/ sick notes  thats appallling

I've said it before, and I will say it again. 

The players are not justified earning a Stoke on Trent average monthly salary in one month on their performances and applications. They are taking the proverbial. 

And the pay on the gate admission fees now need to freeze, regardless of whether or not the club sell season tickets

 Just out of interest, where've  you got these figures from ? 

Look on Sports salary website. Each club is listed with player salaries. 

Frankly I'm shocked at some of the figures for the lower leagues, particularly in the climate as it is today. 

[The French Connection]

Answering the question 'Why', I think Carol is obviously an astute business woman.  But she is not a football person, and clearly doesn't have much of a clue about running a football club.  She needs someone experienced in running a club on board, to steer the football side of things.  And she's chosen Flitcroft to be that person. 

Which is unfortunate. People with football in their veins, who've followed their team since first kicking a football, can see and appreciate things pretty clearly, can recognise a big mistake when one is made.  I don't think Carol has this ability, so she needs a Flitcroft.  

Which is unfortunate.  She needs to chop off the ship's rudder and steer it herself whilst finding a new one.  I suspect she finds this a daunting prospect.  So the club continues to float along, seemingly rudderless, with The DoF 'steering'. 

Which is unfortunate....

Seven months contract = £120, 000.  IF he had scored goals that had kept Vale in this division money well spent. Who could foresee his series injury.?

1 goal in 15 appearances id piss poor

He's never had a good goal scoring record, so,  was a complete waste of money

Bri, you can go and speak to DF at the club, or ask a player, or speak to the clubs accountant or someone who has dinner with Carol after home games and ask them. When you have done that, let me know.

He’s scored about 16 goals in total in the last 6 years!!! In the last three seasons his totals have been 2 then 3 then 1. He doesnt score goals! Fantasising that in some imaginary season he could have scored a boatload for us doesnt make it ok. He’s a headless chicken who controls the ball further than dan jones can chuck it. £4500 or uche and £2700 on loft. Imagine who we could have got for £7200! Absolute dire business bringing those two in.
