If you both open your eyes a little and actually read what I put
I am always open minded about who we sign, I am merely passing on what I have be messaged which includes a lot of laughing in my general direction over this one.
But you have mentioned it a lot. No need to bang on about the negatives. New club fresh start. See him in a town shirt then make your opinion

I made one post

| I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas
The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara
I once said Gazza's IQ was less than his shirt number and he asked me: What's an IQ? - George Best |

Two or three thoughts -
One, he's been in L1 and we are in L2 so at his age I would expect he has some ability to show us.
Two, he is unknown to us but a known quantity to the management, so they will have a plan in mind that he will fit into and will use his strengths.
Three, if he throws a wobbler or doesn't cut the mustard he will not last long in a Slade team.

Always makes me laugh at the ' I've got a mate' and he's shite brigade.Same goes with the often over the top expectations of a player with promise. At this level neither are really true. Like most businesses different managers get different responses from there employers. Vale had just gone through a disastrous Foreign coach experiment and was left with a young inexperienced Michael Brown who was known for his aggression than silken skills. Whatever you think of Slade he has the experience and decent man management to get the best out of a signing. Welcome Sam Kelly - the best is yet to come.

As I live in Stoke I have a few Vale mates all of which messaged me laughing at me saying good luck none of them rate him at all. They say he's lazy, sulks and goes missing all the time and they couldn't of been happier when they got rid of him.
I'm open minded, but I've pretty much had the same messages off half a dozen different guys now to the same effect.
I'm the one person that's given you a tick Son Of. I made an exception to my rule of ticking/crossing the post as opposed to the poster. I would like to think that my son would stick by me if I was posting twaddle as well. Family loyalty is more important than football loyalty that's for sure.

| The wife was going away for a girly weekend. I jokingly remarked 'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football' 'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked She said 'Well you already know how to play football' |

Pleased by this signing, we've been crying out for a left footed winger for a while in my opinion, just to add a little bit of balance. Looks like he can play either flank or in the number 10 role, looked comfortable receiving the ball and while he's got it. I think he'll link up well with Chris Clements as they both look like they want to play a bit.
Only thing I'd say about that video is that there isn't any goals or assists in it, and at times looked like he had one to many touches, but that's just playing devils advocate to the video.
I'm not bothered what the Vale fans said, that's in a league higher so maybe this is his level, he's clearly got something about him, your not at Everton and Ipswich without being a decent player.
Overall an exciting signing, welcome to the club Sam.

Ron Rafferty,
Unfortunately your original witty post fell on stoney ground.
Don't put your daughter on the stage Mrs. Worthington.

I seem to recall Chris Clements joined with warnings that he was lazy. And Jon Nolan was a load of trouble. Welcome Sam.

Can't believe people are questioning a player with 49 appearances in league 1. Furthermore, we have finally added some balance and pace to the team.
