It was not that long ago there was talk in the Sentinel and amongst fans of a possible merger between us and the fail. Oh the poor Vale fans..... the words 'missed' & 'Boat' come to mind.............actually was the boat ever there??? If it was it sunk faster than the Titanic!  I bet they wish it had happened now ;D Do you feel sorry for them? It must be hard to take watching Stoke on MOTD every week ;D |

No need to feel sorry for them, remember many of them said they'd rather watch Vale get promoted this year than watch us fail to beat Derby's low points record and get thrashed every week.....
Oh hang on a minute. ;D

I think everyone is in agreement that the City can only support 1 major football club, 15 super markets, 7 cricket teams and 3 homeless centres so i suppose the Vale hierarchy have some big decisions to make.

I wouldn't have wanted it anyway! me neither, i dont feel sorry for them at the end of the day we are called 'Stoke City' which means we represent the whole of S-o-T! Where is Port Vale??.... We certainly dont have any docks around here... can't remeber the last time I saw a ship in S-O-T. Just why are they called 'Port Vale'?.... They should be called Burslem Town F.C. ;D |

It used to rear its head every few years. The fact that like all the other talk of mergers nothing ever comes of it says it all.

My old mans company used to do the stewarding at the vale, the amount of away supporters who ask where they can take there kids to see the ships is unbelievable  |

They should be called Burslem Town F.C. ;D as someone once spammed on wikipedia, it was because at the founding meeting, a deaf secretary taking the minutes misheard a critical piece of information. While the founders were discussing the name, some one asked the waitress, Val, for port. "Port, Val?" the deaf bird wrote Port Vale, and the rest is history ;D |
