In an ideal world, Vale would be approaching this match on the back of two straight wins. Let's hope so!

Anyhow, this is the dedicated thread for discussion of the Burton game...

Yeah I am quite hopeful for this I hope for a win at home

Should have beaten them even with 10 men. Let’s start putting right some of the points we’ve let slip by.

We have to smash these <ovf censored>. come on vale 

VLF

Another early kick off, 12:31.

All the kickoffs are scheduled a minute later due to CPR awareness, the Every Minute Matters campaign

Utter woke nonsense 

Andre Gray set to be available, medical tomorrow so that will dictate if he starts or off the bench so a boost.

It is must win territory now.

Pointless

( and the result probably) 

We're terrible and it's their cup final.

0-1

Let's hope you're never in the need to be resuscitated. Moaning about saving people's lives. 🤣

I am aware I am moaning about moaning.

Don't win against Burton and we are down all but mathematically I feel. Fans already think we are, and it might be the case, but a run needs to start from somewhere.

I lost a friend who sadly had an undiagnosed heart condition. He was in his early 20s and fit as a fiddle. Even to this day it's still feels raw 

Being aware of how to save someone's life isn't 'woke'. This isn't a political thing or a left/right stance , it's about being there for someone who might need help very quickly 

Maybe instead of acting like an absolute Gammon online you could actually learn and understand CPR and God forbid not be in that position where you need to perform it. 

Try to have respect for people who might have been affected by this.

Maybe they could kick off at 12:32 and have a minutes silence for the last of Wellingtons brain cells.

Just because you don't understand it doesn't make it automatically 'woke.'

We were playing with 10 men as Brown got no service and playing lump ball to him would never work, even if Wimbledon brought off all their players.  The ball would be kicked into touch by midfield and defenders before he touched it.
