Can anyone explain these two to me, you know the new Glen Downeys.

How bad are they to not even make the squad let alone the team. I mean consistently excluded, even when we can't buy a win. Their not young pros that we signed for some point in the future, like for example Cardwell. Surely they are worth a run of games given that they are on two year deals, or are they complete write offs just six months in.

No mention of trying to get them out on loan to get some game time, not really getting any time in the first eleven, hardly any reserve games so how are they ever going to be match fit? It's so bizarre I can't think of a town manager disgarding long term signings so quickly before. I don't think they can have made ten league starts for us between them.

We don't know how good or bad they are because we have an absolutely terrible manager.


Supporting the Mighty Mariners for over 30 years, home town club is were the heart and soul is and it's great to be a part of it.

I would be handing in a transfer request if a guy with vernons record of scoring was getting a game of ahead of me ! Kelly is a classic example of weak hearted s@hit out winger , he makes Gary Child's look like Bobby Cummings.

Do you know what? I can't even remember what Kelly looks like and i have absolutely no recollection of him playing in a Town shirt, but i must have seen him play at some point. Bizarre!

He disappeared quicker than Betamax video.

The Port Vale fans were spot on by the looks of it. Complete waste of money.

All my Vale mates were laughing their socks off when we signed this pair. When I would go into work last season there was never a pair of names that didnt gat as much abuse every week as those two did.


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

Add to that, since Hurst left how many of the 26 signings have improved the side? For me it’s 3 (Osborne, Jones and Dembele) one has already gone, one seems to be on his way to Scunny and more concerningly, two of those 3 are Bignot’s signings who was only given one window and signed 8 players as opposed to the 17 that Slade has signed! However with Asante and Cardwell we don’t really know if they’re any good because we’ve never seen them play!


I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause

Thing is Hooper was on trial for weeks before we signed him.
