Darlington



Port Vale make the long trip north to Darlington this evening in the hope of picking up some points on the road.
Their away form has taken a dip in form of late following Saturday's defeat at Morecambe and Adams will be looking for a response from his side after remarking they are too soft at times.
Vale will be re-united with former winger Jeff Smith although the Vale side he will remember has since been dismantled since his last meeting with his former club.
The last time these two sides met was at Vale Park in the summer where the Valiants ran out 1-0 winners thanks to a opener from striker Marc Richards. Darlington nearly went on to nick a point, until Gary Smith missed a penalty in the closing stages of the game.
Darlington prop up The Football League with just 15 points and have only won three league games at home this season so hopefully Vale can pile the pressure on.
Adams will be without Vale captain Tommy Fraser who serves the last of a two match suspension for picking up 10 bookings this season.
It will remain to be seen whether goalkeeper Joe Anyon will keep his place following defeat on Saturday.
