Optimistic Nut Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 On a roll at the minute. 5 wins in a row which includes wins against 2 of the top 4, back to within 2 points of a Play-Off spot, all on a shoestring this time (sold their best striker in the summer to the Scottish Premier League, and their best striker in January to League Two). Would be good if their momentum could get them over the finishing this time! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Howaythetoon Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Not a bad start to the season, two wins on the spin, hopefully a decent season ahead for them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Neil Aspin the favourite to be the new Port Vale manager. Watched them quite a few times under Aspin (including Saturday just gone) and they play awful football. I'm not expecting tiki taka in the Conference but it really is boring, I'm sure they played a lot better football under Gary Mills. Wonder if they might go back for Mills? Although he's done really bad since leaving Gateshead Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
maybe_next_year Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 They played some great stuff under Mills, think it makes a big difference to crowd numbers at that level, although I have not bothered to do any fact checking on that probably incorrect statement.

Dr.Spaceman Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Basically Mills played ultra-Swansea 2012 football, passing the shit out of it and keeping it on the deck. It was good enough to get us to the play-offs. Aspin on the other hand is the complete opposite, ultra hoof ball with little to no real alternative. It's absolutely turgid to watch and has ultimately cost Gateshead a few hundred fans each game. Not sure we'd be able to convince Mills to come back, but I'd definitely be going for someone who has a track record of being able to balance attractive / effective football. People are calling for Richard Money (remember him?) who has a very good record at this level and won League 2 with Wallsall in 2007. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Howaythetoon Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Mills' side played some cracking stuff, very much like Arsenal though, pass and pass but not very direct when it mattered so lots of frustration in the final 3rd. I fear for Gateshead like. Corporate is fucked and attendances are down, big players in the supporter ranks who organised away days have almost given up too. Great little club as well.

Optimistic Nut Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I know it hasn't worked out at Wrexham and he was always up against it going back to York in their position, but seemed to do well at Gateshead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Spaceman Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Yeah, I think after Aspin Mills is exactly what Gateshead need. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Did he leave under a bit of a cloud last time and would have to repair a relationship with the board? Or was it quite amicable? Closest they've came in recent years to getting back to the promise land was under Mills so that would give supporters hope and played much better football than Aspin's turgid stuff Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Howaythetoon Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Aye good luck, top bloke and a very good player in his day. It's good to see a former Toon player get into management and at such a low level as well rather than the usual jobs for the boys, eh Beardsley...
