Good point away at Wycombe. However, I think we were the better team, had the better chances and can probably find ourselves unlucky to not win it.

Decent following from us. 2 hours and a half away on a soaking wet Tuesday night.

What a shame you’re in the same league as little Port Vale. Let’s hope you get to compete with the mighty Sheffield United in the near future.

Maybe so. No offence but 80% of my Vale supporting Life has been depressing. 5 years ago when we were at the bottoms of league 2, I never thought we’d be beating Derby away. I might sound cringey or embarrassing but days like today is why I support this football club.

Some football club. Seen us lose against Macclesfield, Accrington, Stevenage, Crawley, even Chasetown. Seems like ever since I’ve supported Vale we’ve been shit. There’s always been an expectancy that Vale will let you down in some way. I’ve dreamt of away wins against the likes of Derby etc...

Derby away - big game for us. The type of games we want to be playing regularly. Loads after tickets, probably could have sold another 1k tickets. Let’s go there, make some noise and give them a few problems to think about. No point defending all game and end up losing anyway.

728 Vale at MK. That’s decent to be fair.

Some good ST sales across the board in L1 and L2. Majority of teams seem to have had increased sales for this season. I wonder why? I know we are not in this league any more but our ST sales are around 6,000. Again, an increase for us, as expected I guess.

We should sell around 6k ST’s in total which will be a decent effort. I think our crowds / fan base could potentially start to increase if we continue to do well and progress. As I’ve said before, we’ve definitely ‘lost’ fans over the last ten or even twenty years or so. Vale have been a...

Harratt is a likeable lad who has bags of energy and enthusiasm. It’s probably a good move for him, he rarely played for us in League Two (apart from the last 2 games) so I doubt he’d play much in a league higher. He clearly has potential and showed signs of being a natural goal scorer...

It looked like we had a few more than Mansfield on the day - about 18k in the end. We had more ‘full’ blocks and more in the second tier. However, Mansfield’s following was probably more impressive than ours. I expected us to take over 20k. Especially with not playing at Wembley in so many...

Some day. The best day of my Vale supporting life. Experiences like that is why we love football and our clubs. To do it at Wembley and with my best mates and family as well makes it special. I’ve been used to misery and depression supporting Vale. I can probably count on one hand the amount...

What a night. I just felt either us or Northampton would end up going through after losing the first leg. To a man, we were brilliant. I can’t fault any one of them. They ran their hearts out for this football club and that’s all I’ll ever ask for. I’ve seen so much shit, misery and...

As Darrell Clarke said, win our home game and we have a chance, whether that’s in 90 mins or 120 mins. It’s that simple. Nothing has really changed I guess, we were always going to need to win one of the games. I do think that either Northampton or Vale will turn around their deficit and end...

Could have easily been 3-0.
