Worst performance of the season

[Bernieseven]

Well that was worst display of football from a Vale side I have seen since Jim Gannon was in charge. We need to sign 3 or 4 players in January otherwise we will be lucky to stay In playoff contention. We simply don't have anything in central midfield to cause any problems. Morsy never put a tackle in all night as clearly he was worried about getting booked/sent off again.

i thought we were better tonight than we were against sheffield utd. just saying, like ....

[Tenement Funster]

We have a game that is very much based around using Pope as a target man. Not only is he our goal scorer but he is out talisman. The bonus recently though has been that McDonald has been a big presence at the back and Burge has offered the odd little neat pass from midfield or at least an attacking presence from the centre of the park. Tonight all three were out and it showed and it's particularly the midfield and another striker we need to sort out in January. We have a ready made promotion material centre midfielder in Loft so a left back must be a priority to move him away from there.

i know we were poor.but midfield was pretty much new!

no burge,or james?both bedn very good.

popey offers loads to vales play...as well as the obvious goals.

then we were missing duffy.

bit of a OTT report if you dont mind me saying,we alot better than that,and deffo not the panic stations you make out.

obvious we need a striker...hughes?

Come on now, this is getting ridiculous! lucky to stay in play off contention?!?! After losing one game in the jpt cup? get real, we lost one game move on. Judge it after saturday.

I find it amusing that we have one poster complaining about Morsy flying into tackles and you saying he never made one!!!

[valeblue]

Now we have got that out of our system its all guns blazing against Chesterfield!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Santa]

If that's our worst performance of the season so far then I'll take that.

[blinkme]

well let's just be thankful our worst performance came in the worst competition

 

(not saying i wouldn't have enjoyed a trip to wembley, but promotion is the be all and end all for me this season)

It's normally about this time of year the wheels begin to come off. The sides still got players who've failed before. New blood is needed and not just back up but some quality.

[PVTony]

Bradford players were faster and more accurate passers of the ball.

On the night, a better team.

They deserved their win.

DITTO .... Nowt else to say about THAT game 😒

[Lady_Vale]

I'm glad we're out to be honest. Tonight was the first time in years I had to force myself to go. A dull competition (unless the area final and final),in front of 2,000 fans in the freezing rain in December...wish Ihadn't bothered.

 

It was never our intention to progress or we wouldn't have taken our only strikers off with 30 odd minutes left to play.

[For Us All]

Poor performance,crap referee,end of.

[sapperclarke]

Should have had a penalty at 0 1 then may have been different.

 

No way back from 2 0 and surprising to see 2 left footers at right back & right wing and 2 right footers at left back and left wing for last half hour.

 

Strange to see Dodds and Taylor up front too.

 

I like MA but not his best night for me!

 

Need a big performance on Saturday now.
