Let’s face it Vale Fans, Carlisle and us are by far the 2 Worst Sides in League One.

Fleetwood, Burton and Cheltenham have shown some fight, us and Carlisle have shown none.

I thought they were far better than us at their place as well. Fleetwood battered us, Cheltenham took 6 points and Burton were dire but have shown some bottle. I personally think we’re the worst side in the league who had a lucky start and if not for that would be 24th where we belong.

Obvious replacement for grant would be wynne. Oh wait he was injured in the warm up! See ya in 2 weeks lad fast recovery 😂

I suspect he’ll still be here next year. Just don’t see a list of clubs queuing up to take on his injury risk if nothing else. If he does stay he needs to move to central, same as Sang.

I might be alone here but i actually think that Sang would do a decent job in midfield in League 2

Shambles of a season in the weakest L1 division for years! 

[Vtid]

Reading pull one back! It’s on 😭

[DaneValiant]

Reading get one back. Come on Burton manager take your best striker off and put another midfielder on, leaving the large lumbering striker up front on their own. Then tell them to sit back and defend

9 promotions 9 relegations for me, unfortunately the gulf between L1 and L2 is getting bigger, the Championship is now massive.  As with the FA Cup fiasco the only decisions are about money for the few.

I'd agree with that. The gulf between league 1 and 2 is massive this time. The other difference during this league one stay has been how few of our players were ready for the step up. Proctor,  Wilson, Garrity, Worrall, Connor Hall and Smith were probably the only players in any way good enough.  Proctor and Wilson had unusual relatively injury free seasons when we went up. Worrall was very much at the end of his career. When we went up in 86 we had Jones, Earle, Bromage and Walker; who were all young enough to kick on and old enough to be experienced.

Nearly half time.

[PVFC764]

Sums it all up really.  16-18 year olds doing better than the older experienced players have done.

Just shows how good our recruitment has been over the past 2 years.  Let the better players go and recruit players who are gash.  No strikers as they didn't fit the matrix and refused to pay a little bit more to get them.  

What's the word for it - Phenomenal. 😡 🤪

[Guppys left peg]

How’s that not gone in 😂😂

[JS Valiant]

Lincoln have equalised and Burton getting Nervy Maybe.

It could go to Next Week Yet ?
