Accrington

Port Vale's promotion dream still lives on after they found themselves within two points of the play-offs with a 2-1 win over Accrington Stanley last night.
Kris Taylor sealed the three points for the Valiants when his shot nestled in the corner of the net.
Striker Craig Davies had given the Valiants the lead in the first half, but Accrington hit back with a wonder strike after the break and a draw looked on the cards but Vale's ability to bounce back under boss Micky Adams saw them send yet another bumper travelling crowd of Vale fans home happy.

Accrington Stanley 1 Port Vale 2

Aldershot

Port Vale's play-off dream still remains afer a 1-1 home draw against fellow promotion rivals Aldershot. Micky Adams'side now sit 10th in League Two, four points off the play-off pack.
The Valiants started off in the ascendency with the home advantage.Lewis Haldane was brought down 25 yards from goal but the referee judged that Haldane had dived.
A cup final like atmosphere for both sides at a very sunny Vale Park saw the half time whistle spark stalemate between the teams.
But it was Aldershot who came out fighting in the second, as Vale substituted captain Tommy Fraser, and Dean Morgan gave them the lead in the 63rd minute when he broke free and rounded keeper Chris Martin to fire the ball in the roof of the net.
A double substitute for Adams saw Sean Rigg and Rob Taylor brought into the side and Rigg turned super sub when he found the net in the 72nd minute.
A goalmouth scramble gave Vale a lifeline in the closing stages but the ball just couldn't be turned home.
With two aways games for the Vale next week, can they do what it takes to put them in with a fighting chance?

Dagenham

Port Vale's play-off dream still hangs in the balance although a 3-1 win over fellow promotion Dagenham and Redbridge seemed to swing it Vale's way.
They now sit 10th in League Two with 59 points which still leaves them five points off the last occupied play off place, although when Dagenham took the lead in 15th minute through Marlon Pack, with a strong shot of an own goal as McCombe tired to hack it off the line to know avail.
Vale found the equaliser just before half time through Lewis Haldane as he bundled the ball into the net.
Rob Taylor on as a substiute gave Vale the deserved lead in the 74th minute and it was then Craig Daives who found the net four minutes later in the 78th minute to give Vale the three points infront of an Easter crowd.

Rotherham

Port Vale's play-off dream moved a step closer with a win over promotion hopefuls Rotherham United at the Don Valley Stadium. Vale are now upto 11th in League Two with 56 points, five points off the last occupied play-off place.
Rotherham started the brighter of the two sides but Vale evenly matched them as the game headed towards the break and were unlucky not to go in at least a goal up.
But it was the second half that saw Vale turn up the heat. Craig Davies took the lead with his shot and then minutes later Marc Richards capatilised from a Tommy Fraser free kick to take the Valiants lead to 2-0.
Josh Walker scored with ten minutes left and the clock to make it 2-1 and a clearance from Vale defender Adam Yates in the closing minutes of the game ensured Vale went back down the M1 with all three points.
Do Micky Adams's side dare to dream the dream????

Rotherham United 1 Port Vale 2

Rotherham

Port Vale take on Rotherham this weekend in a bid to pit their wits against one of the high flying sides in League Two after the Valiants own promotion push took a battering last weekend.
Vale have put last Saturday's defeat to Crewe behind them but preparations have been dashed as Crewe boss Dario Gradi continues with the penalty debate.
Vale will travel to the Don Valley Stadium in good spirits and looking to pick up as many points as possible over the bumper Easter schedule.
Rotherham will start the game fourth in League Two with 65 points points, while Vale start 9 places and 12 points behind the Millers
They will be re-united with former Vale midfielder Michael Cummins who enjoyed a successful few sewasons at Vale Park.
While the Vale crowd will be keen to cheer about striker Tom Pope, he's a Vale fan from Sneyd Green and was recently on the books at Crewe with Gradi. So no doubt he'll have something to say on the matter.
Ronnie Moore is back with Rotherham after Mark Robins moved to Barnsley and will have the services of Adam Le Fondre who certainly knows where the goal is.
Vale will hope their defence can take the pace and with Chris Martin replacing Joe Anyon between the sticks a safe pair of hands is neccessary for this game.
The game will signal referee Mark Halsey's first since battling throat cancer, so hopefully it will be a memorable yet easy one for him.
