An update from the Vale this evening :
Please to announce following a drop off in the average wind speed in Ruislip, that the Vale has escaped largely from too much damage, which is a relief.
Nothing that can't be either fixed or temporarily sorted out in the morning before Wrexham get here...
I was at the ground yesterday and it was fine, but with a red weather warning now including London and heavy rain forecast, I have my doubts. We have section of the ground that gets wet, affectionately called Dead Fox Corner , as all of the water for the site ends up there. RR in our main stand...
Fela played in the same kids team as my son, he went to Arsenal and mine to Chelsea. I am surprised that he stayed at Arsenal for so long and is probably coming down to his right level now. Dapo Afolayan, now of Bolton, was in the same side too.
You always overplay the visiting away fans and underplay us on the road. I’d have gone with around 150 though. Not sure why we don’t give precise figures.
Pretty much every Belt that we have gone to has been praiseworthy. Whilst we aren’t bringing 500+ , we have a solid 170-200 to pretty much every game and we make noise, plus we don’t upset anyone by winning.
