That ball over the top is causing us problems Vale are slicing through our defence with ease, the back four are on different wavelengths but an outstanding one on one save from Marosi, plus some other smart keeping, has kept us in the lead. Whatever else this is, it's an exciting game, hoping we can hold out until half time.

Lovely to hear the boos ring out at half time. Under the cosh last 15 mins of that half. Get the 2nd and think that will kill the game off.

Well done Town, we've been on the front foot and created a few decent chances, and scored a wonderful set piece goal. We look vulnerable at the back though, but Vale are pretty mediocre, so we need to sort our back four out and stay on the front foot and there's three points here if we want it.

How's your nerve's??
Make no mistake we rode all of our luck that half. If it was not for some inspired goalkeeping and poor finishing we would be well behind in this game. Very little composure on the ball so we struggle to keep hold of it.
I thought Hinchy is having a much improved game, putting himself about and has made some decent challenges.
Bloxham and Baylis need to get into the game some more and our defence needs to sort itself out.
Shooting towards the Salop faithful second half so hopefully they get to see a lot of the ball.

big half coming up , vale are going to come out with a mega press , if we can see the first 10 mins at 1-0 , we will start catch them on the break , would like to see this new guy have a good run at them 👍

Think its one of those games where next game is crucial. If we can get 2.0 up would doubt Vale can come back, but if they equalise its a whole new game. Need the defence to sort themselves out to stop Vale getting the chances they had first half

Yeah, there has been one or two inquests going on at the back. And when Vale do manage to thread a ball through its painful viewing watching Dunks and Feeney plodding and struggling to get back. Its like they are running in quicksand.

Well worked goal, but Vale have got to wonder how they are behind. Town have been second best for most of the half.
Couple of very good saves, some blocks and some poor finishing.
Look error prone and vulnerable. But hey, they are ahead! Points are what's needed right now. If it stays the same for 45 mins I'll be happy!

Talk about a goal changing the dynamic of a game, Town are suddenly absolutely ragged. Need men of quality now to put their foot on the ball and manage this.
