Cambridge (H) Match Thread - 27th April

[gags 64]

Well that was like watching the equivalent of putting a rotting leg of lamb on show in a butchers shop window.

At least I've got 3 months without watching half hearted players play dull, uninspiring god awful football

No passion, no quality. Disgrace to the club, the lot of them

Fair enough, thought he was hired earlier. Facts still remain that his record at both clubs is utterly atrocious. 17 games is plenty of time to judge a manager regardless of the players available. 

This is the worst squad that I have probably seen all my years supporting Vale.

It's been pathetic recruitment all along.

Even the opposition players and managers say how soft we are. Not much you can do with that.

DM's stats are bad but I'm willing to give him support next season and after he's had a summer, a pre-season, a say in his own recruitment etc

Nobody was ever going to get a tune out of this lot

But, as I predicted ages ago, he didn't keep Cheltenham up... 

The following is what you "predicted".

Quote

He paid for Clarke to come and wreck the place like he did with Bristol Rovers and Walsall before and is now doing at Cheltenham. We spent 5 years money in 4 years pandering to his narcissism.

Quote

He is showing his inability at this level at Cheltenham. Obviously it won't be his fault when they get relegated but he will decimate their squad in January but not turn it around.

Cheltenham didn't score in 9 games before he went in and shot them up the form table, a win today and he'd have kept them up. His January signings that "decimated" his squad scored today, and against us.

Get a grip.

‘Hate’ is a bit strong. If you disagree with what I’m saying that’s fine, but football is a game of opinions and this is mine. I think it’s bad advice for him not to sign and stay with the club that has brought him through the academy and given him a chance at L1 football at a very young age. He can stay with us, show he’s good enough for men’s football, and then the money will come. Advising young players of his age not to sign is bad advice in my view but if you can offer an actual constructive criticism of what I’m saying then feel free. 

Constructive criticism is that me or you can not say which club he will be playing for next season and if he sign's for another club, me or you can say if he will be playing or not for that club.

Your statement states that he will only get games for Port Vale next season. That is wrong

[Paul6754]

No excuses for Vale, squad lacking in quality and unbalanced. Frustrating that Camb, Burton and Shrews are certainly no better but survived.

DazFred,

We can begin to judge sensibly next season, when Darren and his staff have had the chance to bring in and work with their own choice of players.

Sensibly?

I'm merely stating facts.

Moore's garbage tactics has resulted in me staying away the last 2 matches and I'm a season ticket holder.

He has God knows how many coaches and yet we can't score goals or keep them out

I suppose Curtis Davies was free then? Be interesting to see Cheltenhams accounts for next season.

As my dad used to say "nearly doesn't count" 

I take your point, but still think Cheltenham under DC will probably have a better League Two season than us in the next campaign.

Got closer than we did! And, suspect he'll get them to a higher League Two position than us next season. 

True! Can count himself very unlucky after an incredible effort 👍🏻 

[sheffield61]

PERHAPS slightly off topic but we totally DESERVE our fate....

 

 

I just feel sorry for Cheltenham and our old manager......

 

AT LEAST they fought to the END!!

I love how you pull previous quotes out to be fair 😆 any sane person knows they’ve improved under Clarke & have been unlucky not to escape relegation today bar rampant rabbit! Fantastic effort from dazzler 👏

Flitcroft literally limited Clarke's hand when he was at the club... So sad.

Congratulations to Little Burton... Smaller ground... Smaller attendance and smaller budgets... Stayed up and proved there simply isn't any excuse. 

They are doing so well that they are now playing Man Utd away.
