    Saturday 1st March

    They're absolutely awful mate. We beat them comfortably on Saturday. Their only shot on target was a penalty. Our keeper had literally nothing to do.

    Crosby likes passing it across from one side to the other. If you've got defenders who are comfortable on the ball, then it's great. But he tried to turn Nathan Smith into Maldini....it's never going to happen.

    Vale playing against a team who've just sacked their manager and installed our ex manager as their interim manager...what could possibly go wrong? I would have preferred Tranmere to win last night as now this puts more emphasis on this game. No doubt Crosby will want to get one over on us...

    Walsall are just very well coached, excellently in fact. They know how to play a bit themselves but are also good at stopping people playing against them. On paper, there are teams with better players in this league. But it just goes to show that a team where everybody knows their job and...

    I'm perplexed as to what's happened to them. 4 years ago, they beat us easily at their place, with James Vaughan scoring 2. They seemed like a team likely to go up to league 1. Three years ago during our last promotion season, I think they were 2nd in the league when we played them. They...

    Bradford comfortably the better team but without Imray, Bromley looked dreadful...offered next to nothing. Typically they were much better when we played them pre Christmas although obviously it was a 1-0 victory to us (or at least it should have been). Bradford's midfield is their difference...

    It's not beyond the realms of possibility. It's believed that we're paying George Byers 8k per week!

    We need to get our run of wins in March, because April looks a lot more difficult. If we win 5 or 6 of the 8 games in March then we should be in a good place. We've got to target wins at home to Harrogate, Morecambe, MK Dons and Barrow. The latter 2 will be playing for nothing really...

    I must admit, when you beat us on Boxing day, I didn't see it at all. You looked like a pretty workmanlike side with a very good striker. When said striker got injured I thought you'd have no chance as I just didn't see the quality elsewhere. Fair play to you that you've been pretty...

    Salford were worse than Accrington. Fucking shite. Bromley are a bit up and down. Once we got a handle on them at their place, we should have won.

    Me, the wife and kids and the mother in law are going to the lake district at Easter. I said to the wife, tongue in cheek, that we're going to need 2 cars (we have a dog too). I said, in a joking sort of way, that I could drive up the day before and watch Vale at Carlisle, stop over and then...

    Ironically, I thought we played better than we did against Notts County yesterday. Just looked better and stronger than Salford. Didn't create that much but we're patched up, so understandable. If we can get a decent points tally against generally teams with nothing to play for, then...

    If we finish above you then we get automatic promotion , I'm certain of it. We've got too many injuries to key players though, so I'd take playoffs at this point.

    Tuesday 18th & Saturday 22nd February

    Unbelievably we've had 4 red cards in the last 10 games. Maybe 1 of them deserved. It's getting ridiculous. There was 8 red cards across 3 leagues today alone. It's ruining games. It should only be used as a last resort but referees have seemingly been instructed to give red cards for...

    What's nuts us that we've won 5 and drawn 2 of the last 7 yet remain in 6th! Everyone around us seems to be winning too. On the plus side, we've got a fairly kind run of fixtures now and lots of the promotion hopefuls are playing each other, which means dropped points from somebody. Win our...

    A much more comfortable result than the scoreline suggests. Salford were god awful....absolutely no clue how they have got to the edge of the playoffs. I think their only shot on target was the penalty which came out of nowhere. Considering how depleted we are, I thought we played quite well...

    It's possible, but the people that knew about Garrity are the same as those who talked about Tolaj. Typical that it has to be our best players injured. This season is cursed.

    Without probably our 4 best players, this is turning into a nightmare. Curtis, who is not a striker and Hackford, who is not very good and young upfront. Be amazed if we get anything from this game.

    Yep. Our CEO said our wage budget is between 4 and 5 million this season. It's madness at this level really.
