[E10rifle]

Appalling from Orient so far. Completely undeserved equaliser; great strike, mind. Rochdale are just walking through us.

 

[kieran_vale]

1-0 Garrity!! Great work by Wilson even if the defending was rather questionable.

 

[Valeite]

We're already losing at home to a very average Rochdale side.

No win in 16, will be the best side on paper to ever get relegated from this division.

We are cursed.

Notts County were better on paper, it was grass where they struggled.

 

[WilsdenBantam]

Arguably the worst defending I’ve ever seen for that goal we literally crossed it in and cheated it down for them, we’re playing appalling now no character at times in this team. Thankfully them two wins mean we can get the deckchairs out and clear the decks in the summer.

 

[kieran_vale]

James Wilson what a footballer he is.

 

[Soz]

Songo is a joke, get in Wilson!

 

[LS Bantam]

Darren Drysdale, fucking hell.

 

[kieran_vale]

Songo is a joke, get in Wilson!

Been fun to watch him and Proctor just spoiling for a fight with each other all game.

 

[WilsdenBantam]

Wilson is some player at this level tbf, still clear shove to the floor in the build up Drysdale is a disgraceful ref always has been. Allowing them to waste time at will now.

 

[Soz]

Bradford back in it after a deflected goal, we did get lucky first half so can't complain too much.

 

[E10rifle]

Been better this half; think our goal at the end of the first 45 took the wind out of Dale’s sails. Imagine it’ll look like there’s only one winner until injury time and then they’ll equalise from a set piece.

 

[BRFC_Gas]

I feel a bit bad wanting a side managed by Joey Barton to stay winning their game, but come on Gas....

I wouldn't bank on it cos we have been under par today.

 

[shoddycollins]

Sounds like a game of football has broken out down on the south Cumbrian coast.

3-1. Recalls earlier in the season when we were pisspoor in the first halves of home games, lucky to go in level, and then blitzed the opposition in the second half. All over Dale now.

 

[valefan16]

Get in! Massive massive win!!!

 

[Soz]

Huge win vale get in felt we did enough to deserve it overall, ref was poor again.

 

[kieran_vale]

Phew that was a very long final 20 minutes but well done Vale. Had to ride out some serious pressure at the end but got the three points. Fantastic effort by all and sets up Tuesday against Exeter.

 

[EricSabin]

Second half of little chances. Pinnock spectacular off the bar and rovers should have scored one. So frustrating as Rovers didn’t even look that good, gifted them a goal and then they just engaged in the dark arts of time wasting and falling over. That’s not me having a pop because we all love a shithouse 1-0, but sadly in today’s referee they had a willing accomplice.

 

[EricSabin]

And sadly that’s why we won’t be going up. Go behind and can’t claw our way back in as we don’t create a lot.

ARGHHHHHH.

 

[WilsdenBantam]

I think if Delfonso didn’t start in CM and we had Walker and Vernam started we’d have probably won that just a shame they aren’t fully fit yet. Can’t have many complaints though over the 90 it was just about the right result. Vale look okay, very organised with that quality in Wilson I think all their hopes this season are on him. Still think we’ll be playing them next season but that’s just my opinion.

Worst we’ve played under Sparky but playing a striker(poor one at that) in midfield is going to be a struggle. Best of luck for the season to the Vale fans on here. For us I’d like to see one or two of the youngsters get a run out as our season is already over.

 

[BarraMatt]

Hilarious stuff from us. Like watching that Crap 90s Football twitter page.

 

[valefan16]

2 off the play offs, four off the autos and 2 games in hand. Come on lads!

You’ll lose two in a row now you’ve got a sniff…

We’ll see on the highlights tonight, but if you’ve beaten our goals we conceded today I’d be shocked our defence was Vales best player at times.

You should see Carlisle's second.

True, we weren't very good and have played miles better recently but it's all about the points at this stage.
I think you were quite a physical team and we tried to match that than play the football that we usually do. The wind didnt help though.
Still plenty to play for for everyone near the top

I think Bradford with Vernam were a completely different prospect. Suddenly looked full of energy and pace whereas before to be honest I thought your team were a bit lumbering.

You’re right about Wilson especially without Conlon and Gibbons. Thought we were very aggressive throughout which is good if channelled the right way. Came close to the edge a few times but thankfully nobody got sent off.

No completely agree like I said you’ll take it at this stage of the season. It’s an art to be that good at shithousing too. Could see each cheap free kick coming a mile off, sadly the refs at this level can’t.

 

[hellogregory]

Massive win. We didn’t play well at all I thought, but took our chances when they came. Barrow’s corners were excellent. Should have really made more of them, but the goal they did score was so soft from our point of view.

Huge 3 points with Oldham losing. What a job Simmo has done. I repeat, this is a terrible squad but somehow he has them getting results at the moment.

I know I'm asking for trouble here but we would be title contenders but for our insane injuries (and the tragic circumstances resulting in our manager being on leave)

We still have quite bad injuries with gibbo (player of the season) conlon (captain and best player on paper) and Jones who was first choice all season until his red/injury

Whenever we've been able to start Wilson and proctor our record must be amazing
