Why can't you buy tickets  on line. We are a joke and do not deserve our support. Carol needs a good hard look at the club she is running.

Just pay on the day. We used to do it all the time in the olden days.

Match day! Come on Vale 💪🏻 hope we’re rocking the sky blue away kit again today 👌🏻 A point wouldn’t be the worse result but can’t see why we can’t go there & get all 3 with back to back wins 💙

Because someone made the stupid decision of taking tickets off sale Friday at 12 lunchtime, when people could have brought tickets in the couple of hours before the game. There was no need to stop selling the tickets untill 4 or 5 o'clock on the Saturday when the store shut, but they stopped selling them Friday before the game.

Not in form ?

Beat Derby in their last home game and on Saturday had 19 shots to Readings 8 in an unfortunate defeat. 

I take your point because we have lost to Derby twice and got blown away in both games really. But Northampton have won one, lost four and drawn one in their last six games. So they have taken four points in the last six games and we have taken seven points in the last six games. If Port Vale turn up and play well this is likely a good game we could win if our defence doesn't make mistakes.

If my memory serves me right last time I went Northampton you can buy tickets from a booth just outside away end .

We lost I think John Mccombe got sent off or he broke someone's leg anyway on first visit to six fields Richard's and Rigg scored and qe won 2-0 about 250 of us there 

Enjoy we ain't conceded a away goal in 180 minutes and let's face it we seem like a different team in last 2 .

If Lincoln who as ordinary as ordinary can string together the run they have then Vale who are overall a much better side than them CAN (in my opinion).

I know the league table says different but if we stay up we will be above them next season along with many others.

For years I ain't seen a committed performance from ALL like Fri it took me back to the when Aspin played days where every player who donned the black and white put the pride in the shirt.

Fri did SAME Again .

No, because matey on the turnstile used to go home with pockets a few hundred quid heavier 🤣

We lost that game 2 0 when McCoombe was sent off - Remember it well ambulance on the pitch for 10 minutes or so treating their player. If my memory serves me correctly Akinfenwa played for them that day.

More recently who could forget Covolan getting sent off on the opening day.

MCcoombe broke Alex Nicholls leg in two places in that 2 0 win, I remember the photos in the papers. It looked horrific. He did recover though and i think he played a stint for Crewe.
