I'll be travelling to Oxford with a healthy dose of pessimism and low expectations. They can only pleasantly surprise me.

Instead of getting down by letting a defeat get into your head - why not just shrug it off, think of all the great games we have won this season and the happy times they've brought - and take that into the next match!

I'll be travelling with a healthy dose of ale and a glass half full, as funnily enough if we do by some chance manage to win and the Gills lose, we go top. Not beyond the realms of possibility.

 

Of course it may not go that way, but it could.

Spot on Andy!We need to get behind whatever team Micky picks and give them more encouragement, then we may all be celebrating promotion in a couple of months time.Up the Vale!!!!!!!!!!

I'm sorry bud but it is seriously beginning to **** me off in a serious way how Vale always fudge it up when it a good position, it happens eveytime, once we drop into a league we just can't get out of it. Dread to think what would happen if we ever dropped out of the league we'd have no chance of getting back in.

 

You'd be no good in the trenches.;)

You're right. There have been some great days this season and more to come, I'm sure.

 

However I'm not sure why some folks think that it's wrong to criticize or that it is in some way being disloyal.

 

I am worried but that won't stop me going to matches or having an opinion, just at it hasn't for 40 years. We were very poor last night, we were lucky on Saturday and we were cak at Barnet and at home to Morecambe.

 

In none of those matches did MA show any signs of learning what must be seen as footballing lessons.

In 2 months time we will all be partying at Wycombe knowing league 1 football is coming to Vale Park next season.

 

Stop panicking, it will all work out.

There we go :)

With each post you seem to be getting more positive. Seems like the heat of the moment is going away and we are using our brains again

 

Keep positive.

 

lol, calmed down a bit now. Was just so annoyed with not just the result but more so the performance last night. I can live with defeats if I couldn't I'd be down the A50. It was just that performance, it was same old league 2 Vale, something which earlier in the season I'd thought we'd got rid of.

Sometimes it does feel like were stuck in a trench.

After we've won at Oxford we'll all be singing on Tuesday, 'There's only one Mickey Adams',

The shocking home performances of late have probably knocked 500 off the gate. It's down to the manager and his players to get fans wanting to come through the turnstiles. Every club has a section of loyal fans who would still attend even if the team was made up of 11 midgets, and every club has supporters who would rather be a midget than pay £20+ to watch a team that is currently lacking drive, energy and ideas on a cold, February evening.

If we win on Saturday then we could go TOP of the League again (hard to believe given the negativity on here).

 

Our far superior goal difference gives us a 'hidden' point on our rivals.

 

We're away from home again on Saturday. Super Vale away.:D Popey and Hughes will start to find the net again soon.

Once the partying stops (some way into July i imagine) then we should remind MattHoll of his outrageous posts

I hope you're right. Whilst not feeling quite as extreme, I broadly share his concerns. Many have been expressing their thoughts on the two wingers, for example, and are being proved right about us being overrun in midfield.

After what we've been through, we have a lot of emotion and personal ambition invested in this season. Some cope with the strain better than others.
