Agreed, almost a free hit with 2 away games over Christmas, then hopefully recruit a few players in Jan.  New manager bounce, failing that rebuild for league 2.  A real wasted opportunity.

Loan signings only. Next seasons manager might not want them. Plus what decent player wants to join a doomed club permanently.

Desperate situation for Vale now. Feel sorry for DM in one way on losing two of our most important players in the same week in Ojo and Byers, add John to that.  Yes we got Mitch back but he's nowhere near match fit. And then to lose Conor is terrible. 

BUT that doesn't excuse how bad we've been for the last few months and our poor tactics. 

I still think that, if Carol sacks DM today and gets a new manager in, we clear out some of the deadwood in the window and get a few new players in, then there is still a chance we can save our arses this year. 

But it doesn't look good. And from the interview with Matt it looks like they're going to back him anyway. 

Personally I think that's a mistake. 

Time to go. Thanks for everything DM but it's just not worked out m8.

Merry fookin Christmas 

I don’t feel sorry for him at all I feel sorry for us fans having watch his snore boring tactics week in week out for almost two years. Even last season was boring bar a handful of games he really is a negative boring manager more attack in a pissed up snail. 

I have never seen so much bo11ocks posted on a fan website ever.Every one can pick a team better than any manager. Every one has got 15 million to put into a football club and then get dogs abuse.Today Clark had severe cramp but of course a  16 year old could seamlessly replace him.against their most dangerous player.Hall was moved back and a forward was brought on.Of course it’s all down to Moore. He needs to players who don’t get injured.Hall was a disgrace for dislocating his shoulder.Clark could hardly walk but so what.Get on with it you girl.If I was Carol I’d tell you to stick your football club up your arse and ride out of Dodge with my 15 million.

Relegation?

Feeding the 5000 and the Shanahan legacy.  The former is laudable as long as you don’t lose sight of the day job - the latter is tainted by on field failure despite record investment.  Poor recruitment on the football side and all roads point to Carol on this point.

At least Carol says we’ve had a good year.

Yes, it’s everyone else who is wrong.

I really don't see what DM can do to turn this around that he hasn't already tried. When we were in League 2 it was often quoted that he was learning in that division, cannot be said for League1 . He is a busted flush, no more cards to play. Game over Carol.

If he didnt think he could handle their most dangerous player, then why did he have him on the bench?

I am seriously done with this club. Carol has drained the life out of OUR club. Bad decision after bad. Then has the audacity to tell us that WE are wrong in that unforgivable letter. That was a belter! 
 

No planning year after year. Just leave it and hope things sort themselves out is her idea of planning. 
 

Over the last few years attendances have increased along with cup runs and TV money where is all the money going? Tolaj, Dipiepa sales, where is all the money going? She can’t even find the money to open the Lorne Street concourse but will put the seats in for the Robbie concert. 
 

To leave the manager in charge with the worst win per centage ratio in league one is dam right embarrassing and shows she DOES not care about the footballing side or the fans as NO ONE wants Darren Moore in charge of OUR club. She employs a CEO who’s experience of football knowledge is running a pub team in Newcastle. 
 

I’m done with this now. My friends and family who attend will not be back next season. YOU’VE created this mess Carol now do the decent thing. IF YOU CANT SORT IT, THEN SELL UP AND LET SOMEONE ELSE SORT IT. 
 

150 years. 15 points and 13 goals. Let that sink in. A season to rember! 

 

Batton down the hatches mate. You and the rest of supporters ARE Port Vale. Over the years been here longer than many poor owners and awful players. WE ARE THE CLUB.

When you get to Christmas your position in the League is a reflection of how you have been playing over a meaningful number of games. We are the worst in our League by a margin that is growing.
