Doug Loft joins port vale...

[valefan1876]

You think MA team selections are funny? We just had a manager who continued to pick his son even though he cant play, told a player he was been let go at the end of the season then started him the next game and expected him to give 100%. Oh and been 1-0 down to brentford with 20 minutes go with 3 strikers on the bench so he brings on a defender!!!!! The ineptitude of Dean Glover still makes me angry!! But am looking forward to seeing a MA Squad. Our current lot don't care, slag each other off in the local press and only about 3 are fit to wear the shirt!! oooooooooooh i need a lie down............NURSE.......

 

[valefan1876]

Something Vale fans should be aware of is that if things are going against you Adams doesn't have a plan B.

He told us he did!!!!! YouTube - Adams' plan of action
He said it on camera so he better not not have a plan B as he just said it which makes him a liar and I am yet to see any football managers lie about anything, and I am particulary observant. Now wheres me labradour and white cane

Well having seen that all I can do is wish you the best of british. I think that was a man still shell shocked from his last managerial experience and one who doesn't convince me it will be onwards and upwards although I hope for your sake I am wrong.

Sounds a bit like MA last season I regret to say.

This is a man who played two central defenders in central Midfield (Virgs and El Abd)when he had FIVE fit midfielders on the bench in a JPT game. Which I believe included Loft AND Fraser...

 

[Pavilionaire]

This is VERY encouraging. I recall Micky rebuilt the Albion with former cast-offs from his old sides and at one stage half our team was ex-Brentford - Oatway, Cullip, Brooker, Watson, Freeman. Let's hope the cull continues - El Abd anyone?

 

[Don Tmatter]

Whats he doing about his backroom staff? has he kept the existing staff or is he bringing his own staff in?

 

[The Ringleader]

good luck to him, i think we should have kept him though

 

[acrossthepond]

Didn't Loft have some sort of energy sapping disease for the first two years he was here? If he keeps improving a could be a useful player at that level, he's still only young remember.

I dunno -- know anyone that would

You now have mickey Mouse, who once played Virgo as a winger and you can have Dixon if you want

 

[Herne Hill Seagull]

when danny whittaker scored that screamer against you it was one of the few games he pretended to be a pro!

I KNEW it! Those bastard oppo's are saving up their BEST performances for when they're playing US, and us only. It's a conspiracy to make us look like a middling league one team, I tell you...

 

[janee]

Can you believe Mickey's brown pin stripe suit?

Can you imagine the icon Slade wearing such a piece?

 

[hans kraay fan club]

You think MA team selections are funny? .......

No. Seriously, we didn't.

Wasnt that John Piercy?

 

[SurreySeagulls]

I wish Mickey well. Although his second stint at the club was less than successful we still won the Championship under his stewardship and played some f*** off good football in the old third division.

 

[BensGrandad]

You wanted to offer him a new contract. Another turnaround?

When was that? I have always thought that he was of non league standard but did conceed that he played well towards the end of the season and added IF he could maintain that form over a couple of months he MIGHT be worth another contract.

 

[GT49er]

JUust as I was with Fraser, I'm surprised that Loft has signed up for MA. After all, playing in a team without a clue for a manager who'd clearly run out of ideas must have been a miserable experience, especially when compared to how well he and the rest of the team played under RS. I wouldn't have thought he would have wanted to go back there.

Still, I suppose as of yesterday he was unemployed, and a job is a job..........

Good luck to him.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Keep Livermore as cover for McNulty unless we can sign a loan player for 3 months. Borrowdale will want to return to QPR as he wont want to be a cover for another player.

Give Owuso, Hart, Loft Fraser and Jarret 1 year deals. Dicker if we can sign him and Sullivan 2 year deals with an automatic 1 year extention based on games played. Release or transfer list Dixon, Mayo, Hawkins, Robinson, Gargan Hinshlewood and McLeod.

Nothing about might or maintain. You wanted him to be given a one year deal.

 

[BensGrandad]

I accept that you are right but I have put that out wrong I didnt WANT him to geta 1 year extension but thought that his efforts at the end of the season warranted him and Fraser being given the chance to see if they could continue their form, especially if they were on low wages as was rumoured.

Am i seeing things or is gramps admitting he was wrong!!

Never seen him admit that he is wrong before

And you never will, as anybody who knows me will tell you, I think that Loft is one of the worst players ever to wear an albion shirt but he played well for the last couple of games and I thought that may have persuaded RS to give him a an extention of his contract.
