Port Vale couldn't dream of an easier game to bounce back.
We are knackered, physically weak as piss and can't score goals. We don't have a manager, the interim having a veiled dig at the owner in his post match comments last night, it's not a happy camp.
We badly need someone in but its unlikely. We should get absolutely stuffed and if Vale don't do that then they might as well pack it in for the season.
Must win to get back on track with a daunting December to follow, last night was probably the worst collective performance since Aspin, certainly at home and rightly they've been hauled in on their day off today and got absolutely roasted.
Any lack of reaction after that would really start alarm bells ringing. How we've gone from the football we were playing and goals scoring two weeks ago to that dross is anyone's guess.
Problem is Hartlepool come and bully us we probably just wont fancy it... Bradford did it, Oldham the last 15 did it and Walsall did it, too predictable.
In the after emotion of it I would make mass changes, obviously Conlon being banned is a further blow but he was god awful last night and has been for a couple of games now.
Maybe go back to basics? Hard to justify keeping Cass and Jones in after that and Politic didn't raise a case so maybe 4-3-3 even (although probably needs Proctor fit to have that focal point).

Give me a day or two to calm down from the anger of that shameful effort and I'll probably stick to similar and make them put it right.
Probably suits us but also wary of our terrible league record against Hartlepool since 2000!We're soft as shite, no physicality in this team at all, we'll come and play neat passing football, we generally look good with the ball in the build up but lack any sort of clinical finishing.

(Oddly the polar opposite to our strange cup one!)
True. Oddly the only point we got from them sent them down!That’s a little skewed by the fact we haven’t played them in a league game for 12 years to be fair. They probably had DC lining up as a player against us at that time.
Was hoping to see a continuation of the traditional Vale capitulation, but home to H'Pool is about as easy a fixture as you could possibly ask for (no offense M'Hangers), so that's a shame.
That was ages ago I'm well over that - just keen to see a promotion contender continue their recent run of poor form.That 3-2 win against you has really messed with you hasn’t it? And by the way by traditional Vale capitulation you mean just last season.
4 defeats in a row, lost 7 of our 9 aways. As Chief said we might play some nice football at times but we are a jenga set under a hint of pressure, can't take chances and generally get no rub of the green. Not much to be positive about. Get this game out the way and get someone in as we have lost our way.Bit OTT based on what I saw last night. Nowhere near the worst side I’ve seen this season.
As for Saturday and Harrogate, it’ll be more of the same for us I’m afraid. Neat and tidy, dull as fuck in the first half, bit more pace and determination in the second half and it’s a coin as to whether we can score more than we can gift Harrogate by being caught on the break and/or our midfield going absent defensively.
We are completely unable to dictate the pace at home - pedestrian - and with most teams sitting back it’s a pretty dull watch.
Surprised that you think this. I thought that you played pretty well yesterday especially in the second half. Impressed with Cullen as I thought he led the line wellPort Vale couldn't dream of an easier game to bounce back.

Jeez mate, that sounds very pessimistic. You were about last season? Now that was dull. We're winning and when it boils down to it that what mattersBit OTT based on what I saw last night. Nowhere near the worst side I’ve seen this season.

That's good news. We like to play against teams who try and play it out from the back and aren't overly physical. If we play to our best then we will win. We'll miss our two most technically gifted players in Wilson and Conlon though. I'm a bit concerned about where the quality is going to come from.We're soft as shite, no physicality in this team at all, we'll come and play neat passing football, we generally look good with the ball in the build up but lack any sort of clinical finishing.

Lose this and I feel we will spiral in a tough December fixture list.
