Tommy Gore player profile:
Experienced midfielder Tommy Gore signed for Port Vale from Bury in the summer of 1983 on a free transfer. Gore had had lengthy spells with Wigan Athletic (where he was named player of the year in 1979) and Bury before joining Vale and his signing was seen as something of a coup.at
However, Gore had a disastrous first season with the club as the Valiants suffered relegation back to the Fourth Division at the end of the 1983-84 season. Gore made 43 appearances, scoring three times (two of which were from the penalty spot), but he seemed a shadow of the impressive player seen at Bury and Wigan.
The now veteran midfielder then suffered a neck injury playing against former club Bury in the early stages of the 1984-85 season. After that solitary appearance that campaign, he was sadly forced to retire from the game.
