On a separate note well done to the ground staff getting this good to go for tonight. My guess this will cut up pretty quickly but more than anything at least this doesn’t add to a fixture backlog.

Looks like we are in for a piss poor attendance judging off how empty the ground is currently.

Not if you have a prior commitment to pick your daughter up from an activity in Taunton at 6.30pm. Unless someone has a spare jet to fly me there? Some of us genuinely can't get to Vale Park for valid reasons you know...  

i m on my way… just need a decent landing strip in Burslem Park..

Honestly I expected it tonight regardless. Think Fleetwood are doing well to top 50 looking at the Bycars as well.

Another interesting omission is Connor Hall, not in the squad at all.  It looks to me that JB had a good look v Blackpool, and now wants to see more of the squad in action.  He could well do the same at Bolton on Tuesday, giving him the chance to see most of the squad in action over the 3 games. 

In other words, squad assessment before the really serious stuff kicks off again.  You'd also think this team has a good chance of progressing tonight. 

 Cripes hopefully it’s Cole and stockley through the middle as a 2 and not Cole out wide. It’s looks really weak in midfield with Wayne and Hall out wide… they ll have to be good going forward cus I don’t think they have the physical attributes or  it nouse to defend well when they have the ball. Just hope we don’t get over run.

Come on Vale.

Connor Hall been injured for at least a couple of weeks now 

Great opportunity for JB, get Vale deep into the cups and then a possible biggie to keep us in Lge 1, he really could become a legend at PVFC, all in 4 months.

Let's hope it all happens.

Hall is injured is he not?

Brady telling clark to go forward. That's what we want to see and hear 

Stockley should have left that. Would be 1 up. Excellent from hall though 

This ref will make it all about himself again.

Come on Vale.

Johnson looking lively so far 

Listening to the commentary through BBC. It's been done through radio Lancashire. I'm not going to moan about Bowers again. They rattle on about everything except what's happening on the pitch

Miss not being able to switch to the other commentary to see how they see the game.  Some of the commentators talked about anything but football. 🤣
