Some cracking football at times – Darrell Clarke on win over Scunthorpe
Port Vale manager Darrell Clarke felt the Valiants were good value for their away win over Scunthorpe at the weekend.
The Valiant won 1-0 on Saturday afternoon thanks to a winning goal from midfielder Ben Garrity. It was the club’s first win at Scunthorpe since 1973.

“It is about winning football matches, however you can. I always say it, in this league and other leagues, you have to find different ways of trying to win.
“I thought we played some cracking football at times, we created some good opportunities and when we have had to defend, we did. That’s none more so than Nathan Smith who has probably put in eight or ten stitches, he heads the ball and heads the player in injury time.
“We’ve had to defend well on a couple of occasions in the second half but I think we have created enough chances ourselves.”
