Tue 7th October 2014, Preston NE v Port Vale, FLT, pre-match, the match itself.

Got a good feeling tonight mite be the night we get that clean sheet we all want

hope you are right mad4vale but can't see us keeping clean sheet especially if that irritating little s##t Joe Garner is playing. Great player with an eye for goal.

Put out the eleven he expects to play against Yeovil and give the best performance we can. Sides who aren't winning games don't rest players.

They are missing 4 players on international duty, and Huge Gills is injured so can't be as strong as usual, having said that I'm sure they will still be a decent side.

 

This is the one where we bounce back though, we will break their winning run and shock them.

 

Incidentally, if you are travelling up here, (I am near Preston) it's been raining all day and is quite cold, so this evening will probably feel freezing. Be wary also speed cameras both on the M6 where they are in use right now, and on the short bit from the motorway to the ground.

 

Extra time is my prediction, possibly 0-0 or 1-1, with Vale getting through. UTV

Re parking I attended last season's league game and the firestation near to the ground allow u to park there for a small donation to their charity, short walk and safe.

Think it just goes straight to penalties if it is a draw, DAP, which almost guarantees we will go out.

Not if big Sam plays and has his Walsall hat on. Chris Neal is pretty good at saving pens too, and we could score a few with Lines, O Connor, Pope, big Sam and Marshall taking them. sort of glad it wont go to ET though, as I think we would have a better chance with pens than et.

Have you seen Popey take pens??

 

He's good at a lot of things but pens is NOT one of them! He makes Slew look good with them :)

Having the fire station close by came in handy when we played them in the playoff semi in 1989. Some fool lit a fire or flare on the Vale terraces and we all ended up on the pitch.

Server down throughout the game, Vale lost 3 - 2, good news Pope back on the goals with a couple.
