On twitter yesterday a deluded Everton fan was asking how come Vale had beaten his club when they had never been out of the Premiership and we had never been in it. I gently suggested that as we had been in existence since 1876 our paths must have crossed at some point. Another kind soul posted a couple of results from the 1930s where we had indeed beaten Everton.

During the early 50s  Everton spent 3 seasons in the 2nd Division and swapped places with Liverpool as the Vale were promoted to the 2nd .

A sort of hollow achievement. Would rather we were not spending so many years beating non clubs in league 2. One reason we have done it and others have not is because apart from Bradford, no other club with a stronger league history has sunk so low for so long. Except maybe the ex league clubs like Notts County that fell out of the league..

Sort of achievement that a Notts mate used to claim, founder members of the  First, Second, Third South and Fourth Division, but missed out on the Premiership by being relegated in the last season of the Old First Division. Not many people know that as Mr Wise`s mate used to say.
