Brown: it’s a fantastic game for myself

Port Vale manager Michael Brown has admitted he is looking forward to returning to his former club in the League Cup.

Brown will take his Vale side to Leeds United, a club where he spent three years as a player. He told the official Port Vale website: “It’s a fantastic game for myself personally and for the football club to go and test ourselves.

It’s a fantastic game for myself personally and for the football club to go and test ourselves…

“There will be 20,000 there, it’s a great game and we are all looking forward to it.”

Captain Anthony Kay echoed Brown’s words adding that: “It will be a tough game. Whether they play a full team or not, you never know. Obviously, they have a big squad so we will just take it as the ‘next game’ which is the most important thing; especially for the club so we can get a few wins in the cup and bring the revenue up.

“It’s nice for the fans to go there too, it’s a nice stadium and a nice pitch so I hope that it will be a good night.”
