We didn’t get to grips with them – John Askey’s verdict on draw with Walsall
Port Vale manager John Askey said “I don’t think we have performed today” after the 2-2 away draw with Walsall on Saturday afternoon.
The Valiants lead at the interval thanks to goals from Leon Legge and Scott Burgess but the home side dominated the second-half as it finished 2-2.
We just didn’t get to grips with them in the second-half…
Speaking after the game Askey commented: “I don’t think we have performed today. There was a spell in the second half where I thought, if we can get a point we are going to do well.
“We just didn’t get to grips with them in the second-half although, in the last five or ten minutes, we came back into it a little bit.
“It just shows you don’t have to get too carried away with performances.
“Last week from 1-11 everybody did really well but you couldn’t say that today.”
