Well, in management speak, we need to take the positives and learn the lessons from the negatives and come back refreshed for our next game or somethng...

I watched it onlne and it was a generally disappointing performance throughout. We might have grabbed a draw but we wouldn't have deserved it. They had certainly come up with a strategy to nulify us. Given that, I can't help but feel the subsitutions were too little to late to get the equaliser we needed. 

Onwards and upwards...

In management speak, we need desperately a f______ midfield ball holding player.

I like to defend Port Vale fans when they justifiably moan, but I'm not sure there'd be this many forums as critical and demanding refunds when their side were 3 points clear and coming off the best run in the country. Go to the pub!

Agree with you about players funding refunds.  However, what I say is that players should put a shift in, whether its a 5 minute down the road or 6+hours travelling.  Felt some of the players let the fans down with their performances.  However, its Div 2 standard and if these players put in shifts each game they would be playing higher up the league.

A loss at some point was inevitable, however what has really disappointed me today was the lack any kind of pressure towards the end of the game like other teams have done to us at home, Wimbledon bring the latest example of that.

DM got it wrong today unfortunately, timing and personnel of all the subs wrong. Onto the next game UTV

They should know by now what they're getting themselves into.

I don't think I'm ever going to like what we do with the current people in charge of the football in ST6. Today I took myself away from the situation after half an hour for my own wellbeing and for that I am proud of myself.

It's over now, enjoy the rest of the weekend. I'm going to go out and get something nice shortly.

On on.

Good lad , sink a few bevvies 🍺 🍺 👍

BBC stats state that we didn't have a single shot on target. Not a great return for 111 mins of play! Can't knock DM because of our league position, but why is he so cautious in set up and tactics? I think most of us would like a more direct and attack-minded mentality.

Stop talking sense , for god's sake 🙄😆

Play 5 at the back if  need a 0 -0 to stay up 

Why play 5 at the back against a team who had no attack .

Be braver how can our better players get the ball to do damage by playing in there final third thats how .

Not to bothered I'd rather have a cup run and finish 3rd than finish top and exit all cups and turn in lapsidasicial display when folk have travelled a 9hr round trip.

Enjoy your sat night .

Poor November so far .

Out of the woodwork again like a snake you are. Would love us to win the league so you are forced to shut your pathetic mouth.

I will make you look stupid and then some so pipe down a bit.

Youth, I can see that you're not keen on banter, even though that's a big part of what a football messageboard is about.

So let's see if I can put it right.

I apologise for posting a silly gif in your direction.

And I will remember in future that you don't like banter, so I won't direct any more your way.

You get me wrong. 
Im all for banter. 
Those who know me will know that. 
I just don’t take unwanted “banter” from idiots. 
 

 

If you had anything constructive to say to the comment then say it, rather than being a 12 year old and posting gifs.

Enjoy your night and if Valliaant has a go at you again, don’t come crying to me in inbox…… “youth”.

It’s certainly his tactics away from home. How many 1-0s in the last 4 away games?

I think ultimately today is done and dusted. 
Nobody can really attack the manager. Has any Vale manager ever won back to back manager of the month awards?

It was one of those horrible days. 
We take our medicine as Micky once said and we move on and put it right next week.

Enough to have us sat top of the league 👍🏻 surely your not moaning about winning games of football. Jeez there’s some weird folk on here! 1-0 or 4-0 the end result is 3 points. As I said we’re still the 4th top scorers in the league. Curtis & Stockley both had excellent chances today. Bore off Phillis 

I think we made more noise today than the home crowd. Gills were silent until they scored. 
Jesse was a bit wayward with his passes. Chizzy had a negative impact on the game when he started the 2nd half. It could’ve gone either way today but you can sense that Garrity missing had an impact as croasdale didn’t get much protection or to play off. 
 

thought the ref was insane
