Vale v stoke reserves today

[luke45]

Just heard that we are 1-0 up through Nardiello, not sure if it's true or not, is there anyone at the game who can provide updates?

1~0 Nardiello, we look shaky at the back.
Good goal though.
Hall on the wing playing well.

Port Vale 0, Stoke 1 (Nardiello 26')

Hall?

Is that the lad from Blackburn?

1-1 now, Williamson I think according to the team sheet.
Only one team in this half they have hit the post as well and keeper made a couple of other saves.
Stoke can't string 2 passes together, they look like they would fit into the first team nicely. Good job there aren't any possession stats or the MB would be in meltdown ;o)
It is only kids against a Vale team of Pope, Birchall etc. But getting the run around.
Gareth Owen only lasted 5 minutes, injured himself making a foul tackle.

I remember going to a pre-season friendly there yonks ago. We had Mike Doyle at CB - I think he must have been newly signed - and he was a class act. The real star turn was one G Crooks, though. First time I saw him play and he was magic.

I remember being well impressed with their ground in those days. This might have been due to excessive alcohol consumption, though.

Finished 2-1 to Vale, same scorer again, latched onto bad back pass from Andy Hall in 89 min. Kevan out ;o)
