So much for 'Running Towards Adversity' 08:23 - Sep 25 with 1496 viewsZx1988



I'm not sure anything will top Port Vale's current slogan.

You ain't a beauty but, hey, you're alright.

That's pretty funny. I remember going there once, decades ago, and we were running late as we got to Liverpool. We jumped in a taxi and asked to go to Port Vale. The driver didn't know where it was (this was before the internet and sat navs) as it's not actually a place. That's the first we knew of it not being an actual place.

I think we made it in the end, although I'm not sure how.

Trust the process. Trust Phil.

Isn't Port Vale in Stoke? That must have been a very expensive taxi journey!

Always knew it was near Stoke because of the derbies, but didn't know it was part of Stoke-on-Trent. In fact, thought Port Vale was a town.

Bit like St. Mirren. Thought it was a place and didn't know the club was in Paisley for a while.

Always thought 'Albion Rovers' was a curious team name in this regard.
