I watched the darts. Saw the team news and thought I might walk up , darts got exciting so thought stuff it. 

Wise decision in the end. 

Watching dominoes is more exciting than watching Moore’s clueless football.

Better effort today which I will not go overboard about because that should be a given. We created far more chances than we have been. Tolaj is a striker full stop. Has to play up top with Stockley and he will get goals. Taking him off was absolutely baffling. Stopped the stink…slightly.

That's the Lorne Street for you...

A clean sheet was the main object of today's game say's DM !!......Jesus H Christ !!

It's not even about league position anymore. We might finish higher with Moore's 0-0 approach then we do taking a punt on a more progressive, exciting manager.

Look beyond this season though. What does Darren Moore's PVFC look like in League 1? What does it look like in League 2 again if we fall short?

We need to think long-term here. The short-termist view, ironically, is sticking with the manager. The patient, long-term view, is to sack him and risk not going up this view to secure the next 2-3 years of the club.

*and risk not going up this season.

Sticking with him in the name of "patience" is just sacrificing the next couple of years because we might fluke our way to 6th with Moore.

JS, I remember watching a game of dominoes in The Knave, that went into injury time. Very entertaining.

That's the main objective of every game with Moore. He doesn't seem to grasp the concept that to win games you have to score goals. I don't see any genuine desire or plan to win a football match, I only see a desire to not concede.

A much better performance all round! A bit unlucky not to of edged it . Great to see Ben back . Same team on Saturday! Let’s get a bit of consistency going.

What? If he's confirming that he has to go, NOW.

And if this isn’t all the evidence you need to get the plonker gone I honestly don’t know what is…..

5300 on New Year's Day, truly shocking !!

Genuine question but is that truly shocking?

Last New year day game at home I could remember was a 2-2 draw with relatively local Macclesfield in 2020 where the attendance was 5,350.

it was only 700 more at 6,080 against Fleetwood on New Year’s Day in 2012/13 promotion season 

Crappy weather will have had a bit of an impact.

The manager sets us up with 5 at the back every game he looks to nick a result or bore the pants off us and play out stalemates every game , I don't get how you can't see what's right in front of you 

He's got to go or the attendances will start to decrease rapidly you might be content to watch that.tripe week in week out and pay good money for it but I'm bloody not so the ball is in the owners court now to make a decision 

Today the WB’s starting positions were very high and we were played positively.

We did not sit in and play 5 defensively today. I would agree with you over the past 6 or 7 weeks but not today.

There was definitely a change today.

He’s not going anywhere mate. You need to suck it up and get behind it.

Did you ever think we looked interested in winning that game in the second half because I certainly bloody don't , Darren was happy to take a draw instead of going for a win for me he's  lost the plot weeks ago most of us have had enough now 

This is what I was saying 

I was being accused of not been a vale fan 

The guy was clapped off 🙈

Not where I was. The players were clapped but not Moore. He was booed and also the Stand were singing about his boring football.

By the time he come to the Hamil there was only me telling him where the goals are 

Everyone who was left were clapping him and he was clapping back like he thinks a 0-0 home draw is a achievement 

Im done with the <ovf censored> <ovf censored> he is taking the piss
