cba listening to it. What was said?

Said the fans need to take accountability, basically saying the atmosphere is <ovf censored> and that affects the players. 

I agree the atmosphere is <ovf censored> and that won’t help the players, but it’s a bit rich asking us to take accountability when we are paying a load of money to that load of dossers.

Can anyone seriously see how Brady can last the season. He has already lost half the fan base with his team selections and tactics. With a manager like Darren Moore people were willing to give him time because of his name in the game and contacts. Home games are going to become unbearable for him and he has to attend unlike Carol can stay away if she wishes. People who feel sorry him I'm sorry but he's not done himself any favours. Yes it has inherited a very difficult situation but these last 2 results and performances are unacceptable.

I think Brady will get us promoted from League 2, unfortunately with our fan base he will gone by then.

Said it before and will say it again - we need and experienced person to run the club. Since Colin left the decisions have been consistent all bad.

Not having a pop at Carol but we need direction and we need someone who knows how to run the club.

Our 150th season and we are going down.

Season done on the 24th January. Says it all really. In our 150th anniversary season as well – and we’ve somehow managed to assemble the worst squad in this club’s history. Absolutely disgraceful.

I’m genuinely worried about the direction of this club under the Shanahans and the people around them. The complete lack of football knowledge in the roles that actually matter is baffling. Time and time again the wrong calls are made at the worst possible moments. Moore should’ve gone after Plymouth – the fanbase was united on that – and yet again they bottled it. Same story we’ve seen over and over in League One under this ownership.

There’s zero accountability. Instead we get patronising statements from the board: the data looked good, the belief was there, he’s the right man. We’ve heard it all before. It happened with Flitcroft when Carol practically told fans off, and it’s happened again this season with Moore. Nothing learned.

I like Carol. I’ll always be grateful for what she’s done off the pitch. But I just want a stable League One club, and based on three seasons in this division, she’s shown she hasn’t got a clue when it comes to the football side of things.

Today just hammered home what we already knew – this squad is nowhere near good enough. Bloated squad, zero quality, especially in midfield. I honestly don’t think I’ve ever seen a worse midfield three. If I never saw Shipley in a Vale shirt again I’d be delighted – absolutely pathetic for their second goal.

To be honest, if I never saw any of them pull on the shirt again I’d be buzzing. Not fit to wear it. Disgraceful. Someone on Radio Stoke summed it up perfectly – they’re not a patch on the greats of the past, lads who actually earned the reception they got today.

As bad as today was, my biggest feeling is being let down by the people at the top. Again. I spend my hard-earned money following this club up and down the country week in, week out, and this is what we’re served. Players wearing a shirt that a loyal fanbase would give anything to wear for 90 minutes, and treating it like it means nothing.

Good luck Brady. You’ve got one hell of a job on your hands.

Season was done last year in Nov with DM in control.

Also grateful of what Carol and family did - however, she has taken her eyes off the football side of things again and left it in control of people who are not experienced/able to do the jobs.  They just seem to be robbing a wage like the players are now.

Another rebuild job coming up in Div 2.

I havent posted on here for 10 years but that is the most ill informed post I have seen since then.

Didn't DC lose his first 8 games?  How long does it take to make the best use of your players? Maybe an impossible job. His strength of character will soon be put under test. 

 

Just in from the game. We are doomed 100% relegated, no doubt about it.

Out or order.

she has been our saviour but unfortunately is out of her depth in running a football club. Would help if she had appointed the right people to run the club.

I’ve never left 59th minute ever. That was embarrassing, put the lot on the transfer market they couldn’t give a toss.

My first match was in 1973, vs West Ham.
I lasted 1 minute longer than you today. I’ve never left a match early no matter the score or performance. 
that was a carry over from Mooreball.  
I’m really considering giving up my season ticket next season and not bothered about attending another match this season. 
Carol cannot sign a decent manager, she’s absolutely clueless as to what is required. 
Don’t reply with she saved the club, so we should just kiss her arse in thanks. We need new owners or bring someone in to run it while she runs her vanity project.
Moore and Brady are two cheeks of the same arse. 
He should have every player in training tomorrow morning and run them up and down Hanley forest park hill’s until they puke. If the players won’t put the effort in then they take the consequences.

Why?

First league game in charge and he wants to go full in with the fans in the stand!!

Thats not a stable person. 
The players must think what a loony choon he is!!

And it’s been proven today as they downed tools.

Hes a joke of a manager. 
I called it last week. 
I will call it this week. 
And I will continue to call it. 

The business needs some serious, credible people hiring upstairs. Quickly.

Carol & Kevin should look at selling up because this can't go on they're more interested in community projects than the actual football club enough is enough 

You've shown total disrespect to the fans by not sackin Darren Bore while we still had a fighting chance of staying in the league what an absolute f#,cling mess 

I'm so bloody angry what's happened at The Mighty Vale and it Bloody Hurts  

Unlike The majority of players who dunner give a flying f#ck 🤬

I wouldn't want to be Brady right now that's why I think he will quit. He quit Northampton and last week seemed to be more concerned with what the fans thought of him by going over to them at the end of the game. Don't think he's someone who can handle criticism to well which I'm afraid he will gets lots of if his team plays like they did today. Smacks of someone insecure who has never managed a big club. Very non league and amateurish if u ask me. Sort of thing u would see at Newcastle town or leek not a league one team.
