Opinions vary anyway as you were snowflake ❄️ 

Here we go again, get called out, call people a wet wipe.

Go back to sniffing skid marks you ignorant <ovf censored>.

I also said this a few weeks ago. I think he flatters to deceive. It’s all good him being able to get in behind and run at people, but he has absolutely zero end product. 

Would agree with this no assists & no goals.  I would definitely have him as anchor in a relay team  though.

What I will say on Brady is that if the club are going to be backing him in the summer then we have to at least give him the chance to build his own team(isn't that what we say for all new managers,so he is no different) and see how we do then

From what I’ve heard and seen from Brady so far he seems competent, passionate and organised his team excellently. There’s a big difference between having to make little tweaks here and there to a squad that is universally well below the expected standard, and working with your own players brought in to do a specific job and bring his vision into reality. At the moment he’s working with what he has, he won’t have a lot of that constraint in the summer. If we go down, and he’s backed like Moore was, we’ll come back up in 1-2 seasons with him in charge.

We could have Pep in charge, but that won’t make slow players quick or injured players heal. Even elite coaching can’t make a totally <ovf censored> player decent on a consistent basis. Got to be realistic. Brady is sorting out a mess that has set us back massively and you can’t expect that turned around in a few months.

I don’t really go for all this kind of stuff, that said, I have said for a few weeks that George hall isn’t effective enough. Looking at that it proves it for this particular game. For all his promise he just doesn’t deliver enough. We need to get that right. No point having Stockley in the box if you don’t have both wingers peppering the box with crosses.

Everyone seems to be forgetting that George Hall isnt a winger - or a wing back - hes an attacking box to box midfielder - check his profile on Wikipedia if you need to - we keep playing him as a wide player because we dont have anyone else to cover that position but its hardly surprising that his crossing isnt brilliant because thats not his best position… I dont know how we get the best out of him in our current squad though, but thats his best position!!

We’re not playing him in his best position-it’s not surprising …..

He’s not sorting anything out. His in game management is practically non-existent.

Let’s get this right, we were over run, yet again, by a team that is also fighting relegation. That’s not good at all.

Where do Vale fan’s also have to go over top by saying dumb <ovf censored> like Pep wouldn’t get a tune out of this lot so what do you expect or Haaland wouldn’t score in this side. 
 

One thing is for absolute sure is that after only 7 games in charge, Brady’s already started to split the fan base. Some going on that. It’s been many a year since I last saw that so early which is already a bad look for trying to sell season tickets next season.

I will give any body a bet on here that whilst Brady is in charge, we will not get promoted with him in charge 

I wasn’t the biggest fan of Brady at the beginning because I think he made a few bad decisions about starting lineups and should have made subs sooner - then I remembered Rudgie keeping Koordes on the pitch way longer than he should have and forgave him……he’ll get it right soon once the right players are there!! 

Thought the stewarding in the away end was pathetic. Do they just wave pyros through?

And what position  is that exactly?  I personally think right wing running at or inside the fullback is his best position.  He just needs to improve his final ball.  To be fair he did this a couple of times yesterday.  No doubt he has loads of skill & speed but needs to improve the end product.

A load of guff.

The 2 goals each stat was useful to be fair 😊

Side issue I know but watching Sheff W and Ndala is brilliant. Vale sold him to Man C and they've loaned him on. Why were we not in for him on loan?

Perhaps we were? Archer’s looking good though isn’t he?
