But we have an owner like Carol so not sure what your point is? That's like saying you'll do better than Bournemouth because they rely on their owners yet they are in the Prem, your League 2, We also have made big sales from the youth side (another huge investment now paying off) of over 7...
What do you mean Vale isn't set up for L1, we've spent most of our history there and invested millions in the last 4 seasons on being "Championship Ready" (hate that term btw) in terms of facilities for the players, about to embark on a mega project "Vale Campus" to further progress too. Carol...
We usually announce ours around now in most cases but think it was later last season.
Not sure if we will tie in anything to the 150th anniversary but otherwise expect they will be the same or up £20.00
How are we a different kettle of fish? You've been in L1-2 for 20 plus years like we have.
If we went up we'd probably spend again and have a bigger budget than you, but it is a tricky one, we've spent most of my time following Vale in L1 and can safely say the last spell last season and...
Mansfield have done exactly what we did in our first season and like us should just have enough to survive, issue for them like us will be next season as its a hard rut to get out of and that league takes no prisoners.
Bottom 4 looks pretty set, bottom 3 look dead and buried and form suggests...
Its been an issue for three seasons now really that Garrity is critical to us and we haven't sorted that with any back up, when he was out the past two winters we went into dreadful form both times as well, add in early this season when we went 1 win in 10 and now winless in 4 its a real...
Oddly talking about Grimsby I was flying Singapore Airlines the other day and on the IFE randomly was a documentary about Grimsby and their promotion a couple of seasons back... quite a good watch actually but a most random thing to have on their entertainment system!
Frustrating night again, thats 1 win in 25 Tuesday night league games now going back 3 years!
We made the sensible decision to rest Byers as playing him on that pitch would of been a huge risk and a surprise to see young Rhys Walters come in ahead of Harper, felt we dominated much of the first...
That's when I should of known what was to be in store for me picking Vale! :lol: my mate who isn't a Vale fan came with me to a game a few years back and we were cruising late in the second half and he couldn't understand why I was still nervous with the game seemingly dead and buried... still...
Too long!
I am not local to Stoke on Trent or anything so a strange case really but growing up in the Midlands in the mid 90's we had a Division 1 match on Channel 4 every Sunday (would usually be Leicester, Derby, Vale, Wolves, WBA for instance from either East Midlands or West Midlands) and...
I have been away so only seen a couple of the last four on stream but injuries seem to be hampering us again and key players in Stockley and Garrity, we seem great against sides that will attack us, can probably defend with our eyes shut against top sides in that we are so well drilled under DM...
Tricky one tonight, Colchester are in decent form, we are unbeaten in 11 I think now but are on a run of draws, would probably take another point tonight heading into 3 home games against bottom half sides.
If Byers is out for a period along with Garrity then we are in trouble.
Got dragged too often into their game rather than focus on our own, not helped by Amos error, bit concerned by that and Harrogate is must win now really, that said into March and unbeaten in 2025 but we do drop some really...
Sums up why we will miss out on autos, you have to go there today and win that but we just aren’t ruthless enough, and the injuries are mounting again. Two points dropped and well below par.
Miles off it first half, gifted them a goal with some ridiculous playing out from Amos but got the goal back and had them rocking for ten minutes before dropping back again.
When on the front foot we look like we’ll beat these but we’ve sat deep for most of it.
Hopefully make changes, get...
Must win really at Tranmere, not a side we’ve done well against recently and the manager change adds the unknown a bit along with our injury crisis up front.
I’d not play the Palace lad though, rather go Hackford alone and have two number 10s like Chis behind. If Tolaj is fit that would be a...
