Josh Brehaut

Not a name known to many OVF posters I suspect.

But whilst being Head of Academy Coach & Player Development at the Vale Josh also has a second job as Manager of Leek Town FC and 'his' team are the antithesis of PVFC first team results wise.

Whilst we are busy getting ourselves relegated Leek Town have, since a 5-0 drubbing that saw Josh take over as Manager, won 15 drawn 2 lost 0 in the league.

This fantastic run now sees Leek Town comfortably top of the league and if results go their way on Saturday will see them win the league and take the one automatic promotion spot to Step 3 of the non league pyramid.

Just three more promotions to league 2 may seem a task beyond them, but, on average gates of around 500-600 , I hope you will agree it's an amazing success story.

So, congratulations to you Josh and Leek Town FC.

Look forward to you taking on the likes of Macclesfield and FC United of Manchester next season if i am not mistaken.

Its exceptional isn't it - well done to all over there👏👏👏👏👏  - I'm seriously considering watching them next season; the never ending PVFC circus of life has finally, I fear, worn me down

I am hoping they switch their home games to clash with Stoke rather than Vale, as at present.

There's going to be even more rich pickings from disillusioned Sjokies!!

Heard that In anticipation of larger crowds, they are looking for some Porta loos that aren't being used.

They've been so close to promotion over the last few seasons and pulled in very good crowds for their play off matches. They impressively knocked out big spending South Shields in the FA Cup this season, too, before going out away at National League opposition. It's about time they started climbing the pyramid instead of slumming it against Hanley Town.

Be an interesting situation if come the Autumn they're going well in the Northern Prem and we're at the wrong end of League Two and we have someone 'on the books' who is clearly an astute coach.

I remember when they were a 5th tier club before along woth Stafford. Good to see Leek on the rise again.
