Sutekh tmesis NathStPaul See nothing other than a comfortable home win.
I hope you are right, but there's not exactly a lot to pick between most of the teams in this division, and it wouldn't take much of a dip in performances to be struggling again. We still let in too many goals, meaning we almost always need to score at least two to win.
And Port Vale are just the kind of dreary totally uninspiring club to come down and get a 3-0 win from nowhere.
They've done that before, on their last trip to Elm Park. Cue post match pitch invasion and SJM actually talking to fans on the pitch.
They made me so mad that night. They were shit, we were shitter. They spent ages droning on with one repetitive shit song.
We were 15th 3 games before and after losing to them we fell into the relegation zone and then never left. They finished 19th, were relegated two seasons later and have never been back in tier 2 since. We were saying goodbye to Elm Park, and supposed to be looking forward to a bright new beginning at a bigger modern stadium, only to be relegated.
And their kit was shit.
