Port Vale away

[DW31]

Went to Vale Park in 86/7 and have a memory of never having been colder at a game. 0-0 for a midweeker in what must have been the depths of winter?

one of the few grounds I’ve been to more than once and never seen us lose. Let’s hope tickets go to 148 points or less…

I once took the wife to watch us play Port Vale, I never told her where we were going and she was non too pleased.

She's just asked me who we got in the next round and when I said Port Vale she replied, "And don't think I'm going with you."

Schwarzer cigar smoking 1-0 win Merson goal

Thanks! Always wondered what game the cigar smoking was. He was on fire that day

Went there Monday October 16, 1989. Seem to think Dean Glover scored for them

No surprise there.

Fully agree, it’s a disgrace, however, as long as we keep flying under the radar as we have been throughout the competition, that’ll suit me.

Confirmed 19 Dec, now the scramble for tickets to come…

 

[TeaCider]

Allocation of around 3,000.

I'm tempted to get myself down to this one, Christmas treat.

Someone on Twitter has spotted the prices listed on their website for the game as £25 Adults and £15 Concessions.

Increased it by £10 from the previous round, slightly irritating.

But I suppose there's a premium for watching the Mighty Boro.

Roughest part of Stoke is Burslem, by some distance.
Was there for that friday night match 24th April 98.
Very very hostile place.

That was our last visit there.

1928 was a very good year for us versus Port Vale.
We smashed them 5-1 at Ayresome on Christmas Day, with Camsell notching.
Then beat them 3-2 the next day (Boxing Day) at Vale Park with Camsell getting a brace.

Cloughie also scored in each of his only 2 apperances for us against them in 1956-57.

Yes, Bolton got 3250 earlier this season.
Probably the max we will get (st interference from our old friends at Staffordshire police).

Should be an interesting night!

It's a suberb of Stoke, where Robbie Williams is from .

Phil 'The Power" Taylor too (can't stand him either).

Odd how experiences differ. Been there a couple of times and always found them pretty friendly, certainly more so than the old Victoria ground, that was rough!
