I said previously the Vale /Mansfield thing I don't get. Possibly blew up more over the Maynard saga. Mansfield have been/ are a big player in this division but had a car crash last season.
The whole my dad's bigger than yours is played out all the time by not just Vale fans. It actually means fuck all. The present counts.
You could harp on about Brentford taking about 3000 to the Millennium when we won the Autoglass. I'd swap places with them right now !!
Wrexham, County, Stockport, York, Hartlepool all piss on the likes of Harrogate, Stevenage, Morecambe but deserve nothing because they are there for a reason.
Vale are entitled to piss all because with maybe 3 seasons exception we have been gash for 20 years.
That said I'm quietly optimistic we might do well .
*Some* of your fellow supporters do indeed have a absolute hard on for Mansfield, the Maynard thing made it just a bit more obvious I think, especially because it was rumoured we offered more, which let’s face it could be true or absolute bollocks, but either way resulted in some sly digs!
I’m optimistic for Vale, like I said I think they are one of the safest bets to do well this season.
Have Mansfield actually confirmed Maynard out of interest now? Would have thought they’d have done it by now unless someone else has now come in for him. If not and he’s trying to negotiate even more money it’s a dangerous game he’s playing I’d suggest in this climate.
I’m honestly not entirely sure if are still actively persisting in trying to sign him to be honest, like I said we are top heavy if we do. I’m not even sure if we made him a offer, I know at the very least we said that we are interested a few month back but at a reduced price.
