What an absolutely wanker of a chairman he sounds. He is publicly slating Vale fans live on radio Stoke! I think Norm. is being a tad naïve . I can see where he is coming from , after all he has put around £2.5 m into the Vale in the past 12 months and given them a players budget competitive for the division in which they play, and he has set ticket prices based on what he thought the average gate would be ,just to break even. He has in the past, said that he does not know a lot about football if he did he would know that gates at the Vale of late have at the best been 6-7,000 and even if they were at the top of Div.1 I doubt they would get any more, so his business plan was always going to be flawed. Not looking good for our neighbours , I feel Smurf is looking for a way out. Then what? V2015 ? Where is Glenda the internet policewomen GD

the smurf hasnt got the sort of money the coates family have,the 2.5 mill hes put in the last 2 seasons prob stretches him to the limit,dont kid yourselves that the coates family would go as far pro rata.its not his fault the vale fans cant do their maths,if they dont put money into vale then dont expect anyone else to.,,simples.

He does seem to go on about Stoke quite a bit!
Calling a section of his own fans "a disgrace" might not be his best move. But you can't argue he's put money into the club and considering their crowds, they've got some decent players.
That said, where have these reports come from the club is in trouble financially?

He explained his stance across several Tweets this morning. It reads like something Valiantitus used to post on TwoView (sans a BROOKER GOAL EXPLOSION) To explain my comments yesterday have received a large number of people local to the Club state the will no longer go to home games because Chairman Ticket prices Micky Leaving Rob interim Lorne St not finished Crap Football defec to Stoke Brand of Beer Speakers to loud & so on So here is my position It costs me £1700 a game to watch the Vale I do 40 to 60 hours a week unpaid I travel 3 hours a day to get to ground Why I am putting all this effort and money trying to revive a Great Club that lost its way the gates in the old regime were higher what am I doing wrong and am I really just wasting my time effort and money and provide the football the gate dictates which in turn dictates league Division which is really mid to upper League 2 My comments were not aimed at non local Fans but those in Vale area who chose not to support financials of the Club they say they support AWAGHe was in The Leopard on Saturday night (nearly sent my lady flying when the fat fucker barged past her) and it looks like he wrote that after his eighth pint of Guinness. I'll try putting it in Google Translate, as my soap-dodger speak is a little rusty.

After all, the Fail are in a much better league and financial position than they were ever expected to be at this time. At least to normal people anyway ;-) GD
