Quotes
“They are a side who can cause you problems if it all clicks together. At the moment they’re probably just waiting for that to happen, but when it does they will fancy their chances. It’s a team that will present different problems for us, but we have to see if we can impose ourselves onto them and cause them issues…”
Port Vale manager Neil Aspin
“We know that MK Dons are a big team and they’ve invested well this season to try and bounce back up the leagues. However, we are on a good run and we’re playing well as a team, so there is nothing that can stop us doing well on Tuesday night…”

Man in charge
After meeting Tisdale’s successor at Exeter over the weekend it’s now time to meet Paul Tisdale himself. After a marathon twelve year stay at St James Park, Tisdale moved to Milton Keynes in the summer tasked with taking the side up. So far he boasts a 30% win ratio.
