I think just into New year following of 1300 Boxing day Bradford ,that  wasn't a terrible performance  in fact if stockleys header goes deservedly in ,we get a deserved point in my opinion the fact there goal was offside seems to have given fans a bad opinion of game especially second half where id say we were the better team ,,710 Grimsby Xmas  Sundaythe Ripley show (not a good one )  and 900 odd Doncaster is tremendous support as the fans have only seen 1 goal in about 3 away games including Bromley (the Ripley show tremendous that day and ghost goal day )not including the hardy 100 who did see 1 at funny enough Doncaster in pizza extravaganza .

I hope they see a new Vale tomorrow they deserve see some goals for the Vale whether they will over to the players because surely they can ignore the manager and play to go forwards and win .

 

7 goals in the last 10 away games, we have not scored more than 1 away since September.

Matchday! ⚽️ Tough ask today against a Donny side who will be right up there come May. I just want to see some passion, desire & bravery. Safe journey to all the travelling faithful… Come on Vale! 💪🏻 

Sadly I really cant see anything other than a defeat here,well apart from the usual massive melt down when the team is announced

I’ll wait until 2pm for that. Understandable if he recalls the likes of Ripley & Debrah though mate

Cant see that happening tbh

We have a good record up there be a away win if we set up at 15.00 to win .

I think Tolaj and Paton to score 2-1 Vale 

Let's have a positive performance. 

I'll go for 4 changes personally should be 3 maximum Clark for Cover Headley for Henegan  Paton for R Richards

Small pitch. Away from home. It'll definitely be three at the back again.

My guess is: 

Amos

Smith, Heneghan, Hall 

Clark, Garrity, Croasdale, Headley 

Chislett, Tolaj, Curtis 

Was there a pre match press conference for this game? [emoji848]

Cant see one on the App, just a Match Preview.

Could be the day that changes all that?  Then again.....................................................

Let's hope 2025 is a massive improvement on 2024 in terms of Vale wins! By my reckoning, we only won four league games at Vale Park in the whole of 2024. 

A good run of results in January could get our promotion push back on track and give the players their confidence back.

I hope DM has a New Year's resolution to be braver and more attacking in his tactics. His job depends on the backing of supporters and he's only going to get that with more entertaining, winning football! 

Tough place to go today, but we won there recently and shouldn't fear Doncaster at all. 

UTV! 

In boozer in Donny

Don't shoot the messenger.

We deserve to lose if that’s true

If it’s a midfield 3 and Hackford playing alongside Tolaj then to be clear it’s not what I’d do but I can get it. If not then yikes.

Good source, spot on at Bromley and Bradford. 

I'll apologise on his behalf if wrong.

New lad starts.
