Looked to be quite a few Port Vale fans knocking about when I dropped Mel off. How many are there ?

Re: Port Vale Match Thread
 

Coppice End is pretty full, with a few spilling over into the cow shed

28: first real save for Dunbavin - Craig Davies broke away and fired in a dipping shot-cum-cross from the right that the keeper had to tip over

Re: Port Vale Match Thread
 

32: good save from Dunbavin to deny Loft who shoots from outside the area

Re: Port Vale Match Thread
 

35: goal
Davies takes the ball round Kempson and gets a right foot shot away that beats Dunbavin into the roof of the net
0-1

oh crap :(

Rochdale went behind at the same time, party poopers all round

HT:
Big let off for Stanley just before the whistle - Davies went through again and it looked like he'd chipped Bav, but fortunately for the Reds it dropped wide of the left hand post.

Pretty grim stuff in that first half. Windy night, bobbly pitch, below-par performance. Much work to do.

The teams are returning...
No Stanley changes that I can see.

The wind is now officially "bitter"

If it gets any colder we may reach "arctic"

Re: Port Vale Match Thread
 

Stanley under pressure immediately from the restart...
