Port Vale: Vale miss £20,000 repayment on £2.25m council loan

“not the correct way to run a club is it. vale fans have been right, too many no logic men in charge on the board. power to the people.”

“One thing concerns me on this, if we were late last month, none this month, are in dispute with the company producing the programme, where exactly has the £277,00 gone? If it has gone on salaries, as it's obviously not going on bills, what is going to happen this month or even next month. The sooner someone does due diligence or a comprehensive financial investigation takes place then I genuinely fear for the club.”

“Mick32

In 30 years of support I have seen promotions, relegations, admin.

I have seen crowds of 2000 and crowds of 18,500...

Now talking of crowds these clowns will have sub 3000 crowds next season because people are fed up of the garbage football, all this nonsense of support your team no matter what is just that nonsense, if you want evidence look at our crowds over the seasons, its the football on offer that really matters.”

“absolutely gutted watching this happen 2 our club and knowing theres not alot most of us can do except for keep getting behind the lads....what goes around comes around miller,deakin and co will get exactly what they deserve at some point in there lifes scum!!!”

“tony.. lloyd has lost all credability, so have the others, dark days ahead.”

“Apparently the commercial side is doing well ? but not making a profit ?, would it be correct to say that top heavy staffing levels are soaking up profits 'cos if so the commercial side is about as much use as a chocolate fire guard. Profits from the commercial were to be ploughed back into the playing side but profits aren't ever enough to repay the council loan ??? , Things are blacker than at first seemed, From a company point of view harsh though it sounds, a few staff posts should be merged and a few staff made surplus that would release a few quid ,any cost cutting along those lines would help, unpleasant though it sounds but the club must survive ,short term pain for long term gain but i wonder, are the club still paying millers salary and deakins wage because their salary's would almost if not all pay the council loan, just a thought fellow supporters ,just a thought.”

“Mick32, I am a ST holder and shareholder, whether I attend or not makes no difference. I have also seen it all from Ronnie Allen and Tommy Lawton at the Old Rec, never have I been so depressed. What will happen if the EGM is fiddled I dread to think.”

“fosse
in 50 plus years of support, i have seen it all at MY CLUB, promotions, Relegations, administration, application to be re-elected to the football leauge. Never have i considered "enough is enough"
The EGM or AGM will take place it has to and that is the format to effect change.
When and if a new board is elected to your likeing and the standard of foot ball remains the same will you still be saying enough is enough.
Bottom line is YOUR TEAM NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT if you are a supporter you should have one priority ATTEND GAMES and GIVE YOUR SUPPORT TO YOUR TEAM REGARDLESS OF THE SITUATION”

“lloyd you are a clueless buffoon who i would not trust to organise a chimps tea party, let alone act a chairman of our beloved port vale , you know nothing , see nothing and blame everyone else for your collective failure .

in reality mike lloyd you should be on stage as you appear to be some sort of comedian albeit not very funny.”

“Mick32, the board are delaying everything, payments, accounts, AGM, EGM, etc. What they cannot delay is the day of reckoning. It is the board`s job to put an attractive team on the pitch, if they fail to do that customers do not turn up, football fans are very loyal, but enough is enough. It may well be that Admin comes before the AGM/EGM, that is why people are bickering.”
