w/e Saturday 30th November

No great mystery to it. The wide centrebacks have been clearly picked with a view to trying to counter Tracey. Would rather Tolaj instead of Hackford on the bench but only so many spots available.

Watching this on Sky tonight due to working nights. See they also have a PL game on tonight so why they had to schedule this for a Monday night fuck knows.

Yeah I get that but looks a bit iffy if we end up under pressure, it’s one set up with the expectation of us having the ball.

Tolaj is a funny one. Hackford has done well off the bench so can see why though. If we lose it’s a terrible line up, if we win Moore has pulled a master stroke I guess.

What a goal Shorrock

 

[クレイグ]

What a goal.

 

[Bottega Don]

Have Port Vale always played Glad all over or is that new?

Feels weird considering it's so associated with Crystal Palace

Done it since the early 2000’s just for the most of that time we don’t score many for any to know. Not a lover of it myself.

Hanging on a bit too much last 5 or 10 minutes. Just need to get on the ball and slow it down a bit.

 

[Soz]

Ref is a joke obviously

 

[hellogregory]

Crewe will torture us on Saturday based on this. Far too much aggression and energy for us to cope with.

Then in a few weeks Port Vale will destroy us. Again they’ll physically dominate and have players to put us to the sword.

Its going to be a tough month.

 

[kieran_vale]

Strange old half that. Wonder goal from Shorrock but been rather scrappy outside that. Crewe had a couple of half openings but not much beyond that.

 

[valefan16]

Great start and hit from young Jack. Made it hard for ourselves at times over playing in midfield and probably should be 2 up but poor composure in a great position.

Referee is a joke though. Books Hart seconds after not booking a Crewe player for taking out Chislett and letting a lot go for them.

Decent contest and probably need another.

 

[leedsvaliant]

Crewe been quite confident as you'd expect but we probably look the more likely to score. Both teams been quite direct to be honest and the final ball from both has been poor. Fairly even but Crewe do look a threat coming forward.

Referee and linesman are a joke. Seriously terrible.

I'm gonna provide you all with some expert, Sky Sports EFL levels of analysis here.

It was a great strike, and he will be really happy with it.

 

[Bottega Don]

Pure stupidity by the Port Vale player

Why make that challenge on a yellow

 

[valefan16]

Begging to give that he was.

 

[TrinidadsNumberOne]

Haha brilliant I hated Rekeem Harper for us. Absolute brain dead footballer and liability. Not surprised he's got sent off.

 

[Soz]

Fine it's a yellow, the first one was a joke considering the 3-4 they have been allowed to get away with.

Called it.

 

[kieran_vale]

Don’t see us holding out much longer. Defending manfully but only so long can do it.

 

[TrinidadsNumberOne]

Huffing and puffing too much like Notts did against us last week. Not direct enough to goal. Can't see us scoring. Hope I'm wrong.
