Robbie Earle's Perm

Cracking set of replies thanks a lot. The article should appear on our website tomorrow. Best of luck for the rest of the season after Monday, even though its always flipping freezing I love the away trip to Oldham!

Hi, You may know I'm the pre-match reporter for the Port Vale Fans Forum One Vale Fan. Part of my role is to contact fans of our forthcoming opponents to ask them a few questions and gain their views on the upcoming fixture between our sides in order to produce a report which we release on the site a couple of days prior to the game. Some of you kindly contributed to our reverse fixture article and I wondered if some posters would like to take part by answering some different questions. I wondered if up to three of you have a few minutes and would kindly offer your feelings on the game by answering the following few questions; 1. Tell us a bit about yourself & history as a fan? 2. How are your team doing (current form and in relation to the expectation of fans at the start of the season) and where do you think you will finish the season? 3. Who should we watch out for (one or more danger player/s)? 4. What are your thoughts on your manager? 5. Can you tell us up to 3 quirky things opposing fans might not know about your team? 6. Any views on the current Port Vale team & specific players? 7. Did you attend the reverse fixture earlier this season? If so what were your thoughts on the game? 8. Any views & memories of players / managers that have been involved with both teams and which Vale player past or present would you take for your team? 9. A score prediction (and potential scorers for both sides) and what do you expect the attendance to be? 10. Finally can you pass on any decent recommendations for local ‘away friendly pubs’, eateries and the best places to park for our fans travelling to the game? Please also feel free to include any other information you feel worthy and I will knock it into a report as per the example below regarding contribution from Doncaster fans from a game with them; http://www.onevalefan.co.uk/2015/02/opposing-views-doncaster-h/ To enable me to produce this in good time I need a reply by Friday and the report should appear on the website a day or two before our fixture. Please also let me know if you would like me to include your name on the article and if you are prepared to share one a photo of yourself we can utilise with the article. Many thanks for your potential support in this matter. Best Regards, REP

To be honest I thought it was a very strange somewhat turgid game. Very little atmosphere and poor football on a pitch that cut up and seemed very heavy (strange as its been so good this season). I think given our injuries we did well to put out such a decent looking first 11 but then lost our star loan signing 20 minutes into his debut. Our defence finally looks settled (though now we lose our left back for another 2 game suspension!) but your biggest problem I guess is that whilst you retain possesion well its quite toothless upfront. Great saving by your 'stunning winger' on the penalty! Good luck for the rest of the season.

Thanks to everyone who contributed especially with odds and sods about Oxley who was actually decent today, great penalty save!

No problem, Burlsem it seems doesn't have such a great reputation with away supporters!

He and Robbie Earle were probably mine. Your user name is not!

If you've been a fan for 20 years do you recall Darren Beckford, he was a massive hero for us, though not ultimately successful for you. What were your thoughts on him?

Thanks for that Mighty Bosh, just what I was looking for, the interview will go onto our site a couple of days before the game. I will let you know how Oxley gets on over on the left wing

Isn't he a keeper?
