As the commentator says.  We have had chances.  Bolton have had 2 clear cut chances and we are 2-0 down.  

No doubt DM and Co will now bring on defensive players and hope.

Results are not going our way either.

Carol is it time to have a rethink and may be make a hard decision on DM & Co sooner than later.  Need to have someone in mind as a replacement so they can have time with a transfer window?

Good efforts from Hall but you have to expect a keeper to save them

Plus one blocked shot and one effort from Garrity i think from memory. No bad misses.

If you can't put the ball in the net your always going to struggle 

It's as simple as that and the team selection today I couldn't see where a goal would come from if we had the chances apart from Devante 

LancyTony out with his confused reactions as if bottom of the league is some kind of brilliant achievement and something we should be pleased about.

In fairness, Garrity in his natural position and Headley have been good.

We started well and were the better side. So really we set up well.

There are two issues we have however which will see us relegated this season unless something changes.

1) defensive mistakes. And it only takes one because…

2) we have no confidence or idea of what to do when we go behind

Yes, I don't think that the score line has much to do with how we set up.  They have had a couple of shots, through a crowd of players, that have ended up in the back of the net.  Now they are full of confidence and we don't seem to have any.

This month is crucial two home games coming up 

But I conner see where the next win is coming from 

Cos we Conner defend and Conner score 

It's looking ominous at the moment with Darren at the helm

Some people refuse to remove those rose tinted spectacles 🤓

Great 30 minutes but how many times have we looked good, not scored only to concede?

If Bolton defended the box like we did we would be 4 nil up. DM will be fuming  at those 2 goals.

Those 2 goals really knocked the stuffing out of us in that half.

Games over.

Story of our season, play well for a period and then it all falls apart in the space of 5 minutes. 

Wasn't expecting a win today by any stretch of the imagination, but it really is tough sheet.

Crap. Had 20 minutes of good pressing. Decent efforts, decent saves. 
<ovf censored> since then. Defence is <ovf censored>. Said all transfer window we’ve gone into league 1 with a league 2 defence. 
Cole now completely isolated. 
Garrity out of position. Again. 
Headley left wing for some crazy reason. 
Changes need making, Hall and Paton. Still think it will be 3/0 

Bottom after 15 games after this investment from Carol.  Disgraceful. Never a league 1 manager.

I'm actually more annoyed with how it stands than I would be if we'd played <ovf censored> and got what we deserved. But it's the harsh reality, again, that they've been clinical and we haven't. Headley and Johnson have combined well.

Thrashing was predicted, and a thrashing it will be.

We just don't score enough goals, and concede pretty much every attempt at our goal

Relegation beckons unless Darren is binned of 

Typical Vale miss everything 

They score with first on target effort and we havent had a goal attempt since

Not watching it sounds like a lack of character in the  team since there goal went in.

Alright this is Vale league 1 unfortunately 

To be honest i dont know why we have the high of going up if going too embarass ourselves consistently in league 1 

Show some heart in second half for the support .

Score your chances

I'm surprised that no Championship club signed Cozier-Duberry on loan especially when he was playing in the Championship last season for Blackburn on loan.

Darren and some of these players are out of their depth 

It’s time for a new Manager I am afraid. Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
