They do have a slight chance but Derby have Cambridge A, Carlisle H so it's unlikely and they rested a few risk players Tuesday who had knocks "Looking at the bigger picture" like Santos.

Derby have only won two of their last five. Any club three points behind with an inferior goal difference playing a woefully out of form Vale side are going to play a full-strength squad and hope they thump us and Derby slip up again. I personally think there's no chance that unless someone is carrying an injury that they are going to rest any first-team regulars.

Afterall, how would the Bolton fans/the press react if Evatt rotated his squad, they subsequently struggle against us and then miss out on a promotion spot if Derby happen lose? He'd be absolutely slaughtered by them. He's surely not going to take that risk. He may not play injured players (that's slightly different) but he's certainly not going to rest any for the play-offs when there's any chance of automatic promotion.

Probably fitting that a team on a -31 goal difference and lost their first game 7-0 should be relegated before the last game of the season.

The worst part is somebody looks like staying up on about 46 points !

I think it's crucial Vale get the first goal to have any chance. Otherwise, should Bolton score first early, expect a landslide. 

Crucial whether Dipepa plays or not as well.

We might huff and puff for 20 or 30 minutes but this will end up 3 or 4. People call me negative, a Stoke fan, blah blah. That's fine. I certainly don't lose sleep over it. But in my eyes we were down 6 or 7 weeks ago and I made peace with it. 

Bring on the rebuild and get as many of these muppets out of the club as possible.

My relative is a Bolton fan. Says they struggle against <ovf censored> sides at home. With that in mind I will go 6-0 Bolton. 

[Vtid]

Must win! 😆 can’t see anything but a 4-0 win for Bolton to be honest. The inevitable isn’t too far away now that’s for sure

The day we get relegated.

I agree sadly as I expect Cheltenham to beat Lincoln 

[Dipepa delight]

I'd go for this game .

     Leuitwiler (sick of Ripley giving ball to opposition from kicks its so needless ).

            Ojo

Sang  Walters Plant Grant 

Massey Garrity Chislett 

     Uche Dipepa 

I'd go with that we cannot defend so play with none just go forwards and try score loads. 

Ojo can be first line of defence and attack

Do you know what I'd prefer to lose 7-3 and give it a right go.

Pointless doing another Peterborough isn't it.

Let's go down all guns blazing.

Agree m8 what's the point .

You only have to look at body language of defence to see we going lose at Peterborough it was rubbish 

Couldn't pass the ball didn't win it no tackling ,just tried sit back and hope they got one chance at 3 -0 down 90 +mins Garrity effort whoosh really worth our fans time and effort attending thst beaten before kick a ball .

I read online a Peterboro fan saying to a Fleetwood fan after 4-1 win and Fleetwood missing 2 pens how good a watch Fleetwood were I also read there comments on how utterly pitiful and worst team visit them Port Vale .

I want see the players have a go for those people who are going think it's just passed a 1000.

Ojos best game of season was at back v Lincoln well he is good enough play there be on his own though in my team .

Bolton won't see the ball if we have the ball .

Get on with listen to VFIA Devine Intervention and me we can turn this round with positivity and playing to win.

Not coming out beaten before a balls kicked however did Vale in adversary ever win a game if they did not believe.

Cheltenham are as bad us, Burton and Fleetwood.

At the season’s end a team will stay up with 43 or 44 points.

Thats the fact that hurts, just another couple of points or so and we could have survived.

Its possible Burton, Fleetwood and Cheltenham could all finish on 43 points .

Even Vale might if we manage to beat Cambridge but that won’t happen !
