In shittown top trumps Vale just edge out the Stokies for 1st place.

Portsmouth: Seen them at Maine Road but not at the Etihad.

First PL game at the Etihad, were you on your hols?

And that game when "Arry" was in charge of them, Clueless in charge of us and we killed them 6-0 I think it was
Neither manager had any idea of what was happening

What do you call a dog with five pricks?
The original joke I heard in the early 80s was-
"What do you call a dog with wings"?

"Linda McCartney " RIP.

No, but I was having a senior moment when I forgot we'd played them. Kinnell, we've played them 7 times at the Etihad and I was at every one of them.

Good draw for Port Vale financially

If on TV and a fiver per adult

 

[Bluekiwi]

I bet the Echo is full of moaning scousers about our continued run of drawing opposition from the lower reaches.

 

[hertsblue]

BBC comments are hilarious as if you select highest rated nearly every one is about us and easy draws. Perhaps if PL teams did not put out weak teams and took cups seriously like us, they would stay in the cup to meet us in a later round. Utd fans moaning about easy draws have short memories, when they won the Thursday night cup I have never seen such an easy run to the finals

Even if not. Yes, I agree that would be the dream for them, but they will still welcome the finances they shall receive from this fixture. Bean counters aside, I bet their players are over the moon as well

Tickets will be cheap so the excuses had better be good.

January sales, innit? Can't miss out on those bargains down at Currys and B&Q.

Please no poxy sunday tea time kick off. Am i right in thinking this is just before the 1st legs of the carabo cup?

We've actually got a good record on attendances at Home Weekend Cup Matches. It should be a Saturday 3pm Kick off as there is enough interesting games for us not to be on TV (Would have been different had we been away).

So if priced sensibly & i reckon Vale will bring 6,000 then I'm saying they'll be over 50,000 there

52,000 against Rotherham last season at the same stage, we should get roughly the same again.

 

[Gray]

Play it Saturday at 3:01 pm and you will get a good crowd, mess about with the time and date and you probably will not.

 

[wythenshaweblue£££]

Great fixture hopefully a few academy players will get a run out even foden maybe

That's right. Carabao cup semi final first legs are played week commencing Monday 6th January.
