It’s the second half when we always collapse 

I will hope we don’t repeat last night’s performance but the pitch was awful and hope it can recover in time for this match in time

Well having it called off be a blessing in disguise as gives more time for GB too return 

Not sure whether get ticket as off too Alicante next sun ,and if called  off be probably that week when away .

Love F.A cup but with us having many players in the squad not all who are spineless well im.sure a big defeats on cards ,but after last night can see why Ojo /Croasdale are selected .

Too have any chance need to stop there initial flow what annoyrd me last night for 20mins  we did then stopped ,the set up 3 in there midfield too our 2 lost us the game .

No good playing 3 up front if cannot get ball too them .

The Andre Gray chance should be finished once again at home we missing presentable chances what if scored turns it into a different game 

On sat we need score then flood the midfield not 

give good sides chance get there flow going

I can't see the pitch recovering, it's a waterlogged mess and more heavy rain due on Friday, no amount of groundsmen sticking forks in the patches will recover it. It could be out of action for some time.

It's like the Hereford situation and it looks like they will have to groundshare with someone else whilst they sort the pitch out so I wonder if we might have to do the same.

Only problem is they’re not letting vale fans buy tickets, was it smithy who tried to buy 10 tickets on Saturday and they would only let him have one even though he is a st holder.

I had real trouble just getting a pair for me and my lad. Had a weird warning on the website about being above my allocation, and it wouldn’t let me assign my ticket to myself 🤷🏻‍♂️🙄

 

got it sorted in the end though, but took a lot of faffing about. Vale can’t even get Ticketmaster right 😂

Well the way attendances are falling, we should be able to groundshare with Kidsgrove Athletic and then only half fill it.

Bristol City was probably the least attractive draw we could of got, yeah we’ve not played them for a few years but it’s a dull one, relatively mid sized Championship club who over the previous 10 years or so we’d played most seasons. 
 

Considering what we could of got this was as bad as it gets draw wise, almost certain to go out without the big day, similar to when we got Boro in the Carabao QF.

You can see it now as well, game gets postponed, Bristol City or Port Vale get a real plumb tie and we lose in a couple of weeks feebly 4-0

10 years? We’ve not been in the Championship for the best part of 25

I have a ticket and will go but any enthusiasm or excitement at the prospect of the game approaching is minimal. Promotion of the game has been minimal but it's a tough sell at the moment as its a hell of a tough watch.

Previous 10 years to when we last played them 10 years ago.

2000-2015 we were pretty regular opponents.

541, play for penalties.

That’s one thing we can guarantee, the midfield being flooded.
