4-0 win tonight 

Any more score predictions? I fancy 2-1 myself. I don't think we've quite got that rock solid defence to keep a clean sheet but I think we've got a lot of goals through the team.

Clough is clearly on the ropes and Mansfield are engaging in yet another iteration of 'sign big names and then end up 19th by November', which they're making their trademark. Clough is effectively fighting for his EFL career at this stage.

They seem to love a diamond to fit in all their midfielders, so I'd expect Gibbons and Worrall to have a big impact tonight, as well as Politic if he's deployed.

We'll have our dominant 30 mins at some point and we simply have to bag in that timeframe. I imagine we'll go for a quick start with the intent on demoralising a very unconfident side.

Hate to say it but I'm nervous about tonight... I always remember as a kid the Vale would be struggling near the bottom of the league and then go and turn over a top team to boost our season.

Its lovely that we are now the top team in that scenario, but they have the players to hurt us.

2-2 draw.

Draw would be ok tonight if we then follow up with 3 points against Colchester, wont be easy tonight and they will be desperate to get a result, Quinn is back from a 6 game ban as well so need the midfield three to dominate and keep him quiet.

Think they have bad injuries mainly defensively so have to have the ruthless touch we had on Saturday where we took most big chances we got.

Lets embrace tonight my message to the players is simple you are third in the league your efforts up to yet have deservedly got you there do not freeze go out there and play your normal games home and away .
We have goals galore in us let's not give Mansfield a leg up go out there and put your best in and GO FOR IT .
Win tonight extra 1000 on gate sat draw and play well and still most Vale fans will be content with that .
Lose and it takes all the good work away from saturdays comeback win .
Apply yourselves and bring the 3 points to the mother town .

Think it will be a tight and cagey affair this evening. They are better than what they are currently showing and will be right up for this game, as beating us (one of the form teams) could be a turning point in their season.

I'll go for a 1-1.

In previous years we seem to have developed the appalling habit of becoming the Port Vale Benevolent Society and giving struggling teams the benefit of three points just when they need them. It always seemed to happen just when we were picking up so just hoping that DC has toughened us up mentally for tonight. If Harrogate slip up, we stand to go second and ready for an assault on top place.

So come on Vale, time to ditch Mr Nice Guys and put these away!
