Think that's just Stoke Away mate when at The Terrace by the station. Vale is the other side of Stoke-on-Trent; we'll all be drinking in Hanley (Stoke-on-Trent's town centre, not to be confused with 'Stoke town' which isn't the town centre...) beforehand.

That’s the policy this season. So we'll have to go to Crewe beforehand for a swift half... come off it. Like saying away fans can only drink in Chesterfield for our games. They'll probably be more of us than Vale fans - You'll be fine to drink around Hanley or Newcastle-under-Lyme.

alanharper Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 tbf Port Vale is a nightmare to get to by train anyway. It's too far to walk from Stoke station, the nearest regional station is still a good half an hour walk, so it'd mean faffing about with buses or taxis which would obviously be rammed after the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Says Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 I don't think East Midlands drivers are striking so should still be able to get the train to Vale via Derby. Nearest station to Vale Park is Longport which you can get to direct from Derby but it will be a 2 carriage unit so will probably be rammed. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
