Port Vale v Blackpool Official Matchnight Thread 29.12.23

[Halifax71]

FFS.

Edit - where was the defence. Pathetic.

 

[18YearFreeTrial]

Oops! 1-0 down

 

[Yarmouth Seasider]

1-0 Ben Garrity

 

[brightontangerine]

Predictable, if they get a goal we know what comes next, too many back passes when forward pass is clearly on, just give it to dembele ( who on at least one occasion was in a decent bit of space a Norburn) passed it back . And there it is they just scored

 

[AlternativeSeaside]

Well that’s probably that then

 

[clappers]

I had a feeling BG would score tonight. Season defining second half I think.

 

[A_Tense_Grin]

Haha so bad it's funny.

 

[hertfordseasider]

That's that then, same as usual, utter shite.

 

[Ghost_of_Max]

Utter shite .. stand by for the Critchley excuses! Poor defending blah blah blah!

 

[poolfc]

Ripped apart by a couple of passes.

That'll be that then. Again.

 

[AlternativeSeaside]

Glad all over, ** he’ll, it’s like a nightmare this

 

[Olliesoffhistrolley]

Game over ?

 

[Roy Kent]

Wtf - Thomson crap ball

Midfield ??

 

[Graves]

1-0 Ben Garrity

We used to have him on our books, they’ve got a dirty ex nobber in net as well.

 

[Tangman74]

Where’s the 3 man defence gone

 

[Jaffa_The_Hut]

Shocking give away by Thompson ex pool player scores, terrible marking, what could get any worse?

 

[Wizzerboy]

So, same as usual then

Was commenting on something else but some things never change

 

[JJpool]

Terrible goal, would that have happened with 4 at the back?

Glad all over as th goal celebration song too lol.

 

[Nazzer]

Same shite but a different day.
He's ** clueless.

 

[incredible_edibles]

Bowyer just said it all “Blackpool have had more of the possession” - it’s what Critchley wants and it’s completely ineffective!

 

[hertfordseasider]

We don't come back from going 1 down, we have dominated the game but don't look like we'll score if we played for 24 hours, it is such piss poor coaching, if we lose this he has to be close to being gone..... PLEASE!!

 

[BFCJonny]

Connolly at fault for that. Gave far too much room to Gerrity. Ball watching.

 

[premierdream2010]

** useless defence

 

[Macseasider]

Dom Thompson is indiscribably shit. Completely worthless. His utter garbage lead to them scoring.

It's an utter shambles.

 

[Graves]

I still say Vale are shite.

 

[Micky Walsh]

Are we surprised, disappointed? Not anymore. We expect it.

 

[Roy Kent]

Far too often our wide players are static when they get the ball - no wonder we don’t get any momentum

 

[tarantula]

What's happened to Hubby this last few games? Also Norburn is just far too slow on the ball and he passes behind team mates all the time, not convinced by him. Other than that the others are doing okay particularly Thommo and Connolly doing okay too. CJ will frighten the life out of their 16 year old you would hope.

Given that he never fails to scare the living daylights out of this 61yr-old Pool fan, I can't see him having too much trouble unsettling some untried young whipper-snapper defender from the Potteries ...

 

[JerryYatesShirt]

Another injury incoming

 

[Westby]

0 1. Ex poolster. No ideas again!

 

[CAGU]

Usual stuff nothing down the left but back passes.
crap goal to concede

 

[Mark_GT]

Utter shite .. stand by for the Critchley excuses! Poor defending blah blah blah!

Don't expect any taking of responsibility because he's incapable of that. Our ponderous approach allows these busy teams to get all around us. Totally outdone in midfield as is becoming usual.

 

[As_Cold_As_The_Rockies]

Shit ball from Thompson caused that goal

 

[JJpool]

Was it Connelly just before too who could have played it first time into CJ, but hesitated and eventually played it to him once their defender was next to him.

Play it early he might be able to get in behind, hesitate and there's nothing on.

 

[1966_and_all_that]

Garrity with a third of the pitch to himself. Where's the ** defence? Three man defence...utter bollocks.

 

[hertfordseasider]

Connolly at fault for that. Gave far too much room to Gerrity. Ball watching.

He is shit, but there were no options..... oh hang on..... Marv?? Fuck off Critchley!

Hope Bees is okay, doesn't look good, if Rhodes goes back that leaves us with Joseph!

 

[SirHarryThomson]

Game over ?

Season over

 

[OhhhBarryBarry!]

Who sets the team up to play like this? I reckon they are probably to blame.

 

[20togo]

some on here need to wake up and realise this is simply not good enough.

 

[Simonized]

His love child is shite.

Watch this.

[TSSeasider]

There are so many players out of position to concede such a poor goal.

Dreadful.

 

[TangerineArmy]

Connolly at fault for that. Gave far too much room to Gerrity. Ball watching.

Connolly at fault... never thommo started it with a piss poor ball tho

If connolly gets a red how will critch still play him on NYD... wig and a tash?

 

[TangerineEggCup]

Dropping like a stone . Critchley will blame everyone but himself.

 

[zico_bamber]

Connelly is dreadful. How can he not see the overload. Useless

 

[Adams Kebab]

Thats how to use possession, 2 passes and a goal. Connolly all over the gaff. Standard.

I have no idea what the fook Dom Thomson was trying to do with that pass. Unless it could be played at 200mph it was never ever on. Total braindead footballer.

 

[ParkerAteMyKebab]

Never thought I’d feel again like I did when Lee Clark was in charge which is I’d laugh when we conceded, but I just found myself giving out a little guffaw.
We’re back to pulling the plaster - but Sadler won’t want to be proved wrong again and so nothing will change.

 

[Danny Ocean]

With Beesley injured, and Rhodes going back we will be down to only one fit striker

 

[Jaffa_The_Hut]

35 minutes in to Port Vale’s last home game on Boxing Day they were 3 nil down against Barnsley.

 

[Seasider1]

I still say Vale are shite.

Just a shame we're worse.

 

[Ormergod]

Get the ** ball into Dembeles feet and make some runs for him

CJ has been ineffective tonight might aswell give Dale a go
