Disappointing start to the season, 2 defeats in the cups and now a loss in our first league game. Nadesan up front on his own doesn’t seem to be working, he always played much better with someone else up too for him to link up with. Seems we haven’t replaced Palmer and now we are disjointed up front. At the back we don’t seem any better either. Lots to work on or it could be a very long season and without fans in attendance for god knows how long, it could be a very miserable season if things don’t improve.
We did not appear to be as well prepared as port vale for the start of the season. They appeared to be sharper and fitter than us. Lack of preparation? A lot of work to do.

Bit early to tell tbh. The cup defeats were against higher division sides (so probably expected) and PV will be up there as the season progresses.
But it's a fair point, if you let in 2 or 3 goals a game it will always be tough and as many of our signings have little or no league experience it will take them time to step up.
By the time we play Morecambe on 17th October the picture should be a bit clearer.
Personally I would like to see Nicholls start. He has experience and if he can get his Exeter form back he could be an important player.
Is Bulman injured as he did not even make the squad.
Bulman might be taking a back seat now due to age and I am imagine he will be focusing on coaching as well. Even in his 40s Bulman’s work rate often puts other younger players to shame.
Looking at the NewsNow tab on the banner (up top) it seems that some Port Vale (and Crewe) supporters had problems accessing the game with the codes they were supplied with by their clubs. Bodes well for the next game!
I have also heard of quite a few other clubs with the same and other issues.
Seems very odd that it is so easy to stream a game to YouTube and such but the EFL can't get rid of the issues on their own platform.

The club did better than ifollow with their own stream on YouTube!

ive started a new thread about ifollow test codes and email. I agree the Crawley you tube coverage was far better. Also I believe i discovered ditect from EFL site somewhere that not all clubs are using ifollow. I have to say I wish Crawley weren't. Now if you have more than one person in the same household (that's a season ticket holder) did you supply the club seperate email addresses for each? If not the way it works I believe you'll only get one code. More codes the better I'd say as mote chances 1 might actually work. That said if they are all inside a batch...its anyones guess!
How did anyone that had the stream affected by Millwall match get a part refund as I missed a large chunk of the Vale match and its angered me ive been charged full price for this. Thanks

Why not try standing outside Radio Rentals window in the rain...
...or wait for the fella with the shiney head to appear shouting "eaaninn nooz stannard argaaaz, full time scores" and enquire how (his team) Millwall had got on & after a chat about the lions, slip in a bit on Crawley and - with luck - he would read you the score from the "stop press" column, that is, IF the Crawley result had been included...!
Yes George, you don't get anything for free anymore & technology can be a letdown on occasions, but it has come a bloomin long way.

Yeah technology is great when it works and not so when it doesnt

Should imagine that as no else was affected that you wouldn't get any money back!
