He need play fewer defender and more midfielders and they have to run in the box with the ball how often in last 10 years do you see a Vale player pick up the ball and drive into oppositions box with momentum not very often at all .

How many penalties have we won with such play .

How many times so we do a quick free kick 

How many times do we win a throw in and throw it too our own players 

How many times do our 4 statue centre half's at home  power a header in at goal .

Well them reasons alone  just a slight improvement in all them will   make a difference.

What we working on in training

Where's the movement at corners from our players

Where's the guts 

Fair enough, but we haven't got any midfielders at the moment!

I sat behind you at Wembley,Dan

We stopped going after the home game against Exeter last season and haven't renewed STs. Apart from when Garrity plays this manager has no leaders on the pitch and his constant squad rotation has bitten him on the backside. It's a shame because the fans have backed the club in numbers

You did mate best day we had for a while that. Shame you don’t go anymore mate but I get it. My old man is the same gets him down too much. I think the issue is that it’s just a recurring nightmare just recently for us all. Crap, crap, crap, bit of success, back to crap rinse and repeat. Even with stable owners on the pitch has been unstable. Just need a period where we are good and stable that is longer than the period where we are crap and unstable to restore the belief a bit. Hope you are all well.

I know that but even when we have how many penalties have the midfield players won

0 not a one 

How often watching PVFC have we scored from.a corner via a centre half Debrah this season I think he was surprised as us in hamil 

For a team which such a number of big lumps would you say we were dangerous in home games at set pieces .

I'd say we are underwhelming to say the least 

We cross in from miles away we have no PACE where it matters

It happened before Dan,where I knocked it on the head for a bit. It's so expensive!

Agree with all you say and I still follow em on BBC Vidiprinter and Twitter for updates!

Three points for you and the loyal fans today buddy

All the best 

New year new vale

These are absolutely garbage away from home. There's zero excuse to be cautious.

On odd occasion Heneghan has looked dangerous. 

But you're spot on our dead ball situations are mainly horrendous. Stockley, Heneghan, Hall and Debrah all units .

How many goals do we score like Cooks 2nd at Bradford. Very very few, if any.

Our set pieces are beyond awful. 

The Hilton up Hanley, if only we'd known, could of had a party and a few fireworks on the car park last night.

Probably set up like against Walsall then. Grimsby concede for fun at home and we barely mustered a shot on target. I’ll predict Hackford as the lone striker

I’ll go one better….no strikers with the repetition of the 3-7-0 formation. Or given the shortage of midfielders, let’s just make it 7-3-0. GOOOOOARRRN!

Hopefully, looking at that hideous eyesore of a car park will have scrambled a few brains.

I’m hoping thar Garrity makes an early return. I’d also give Amos a go and for me Connor Hall is not the player he was, I’d also go with 2 left footers on the left so I’d try Hart and Curtis.

We have to go more attacking with Richards on the right and Curtis on the left and use the width of the pitch. I assume Stockley is still injured.

So with that in mind..

                           Amos

Clark.           Smith.  Heneghan         Hart

Richards.     Garrity. Croasdale.      Curtis

                           Chislett

                           Tolaj

I believe you need Richards on the left and Curtis on the right, if you want two left footers on that side.

Took the word out of my mouth. I know who I’m having having on my coupon.
