Vale fan in Peace... Based on rumours and pictures from Vale Park today it looks very much like Devante Rodney is signing with us.
What can we expect?
Also, how is Benno getting on? I was always a fan and he scored some vital goals for us. I always thought his height was actually his disadvantage as people expect him to be a big towering Centre Forward but he is better with the ball at his feet.

That's a pity, as we had rather hoped Rodders would return to us! He did well enough whilst on loan at County. Bags of pace, and could cut in from the left with deadly effect when on song. As I say, we would have been pretty happy to have him back - but good luck to him, if he ends up at Vale Park. As for Richie Bennett, he signed in time to lead the line for us at Maidenhead - which turned out to be our final game before lockdown! On the basis of what I saw there, I reckon that he could prove to be one of the missing pieces in our attacking jigsaw. Here's hoping... Stay safe, mate. And all the best for next season - whenever it may happen!

I think Dev will do well at PV. Is John Askey still managing there?
Have high hopes of Bennett when the season restarts, but not sure how long it will take the new players to gel and for Jim to get the best out of them.
Hopefully it will not be too long before we play each other again.

I think all the teams will struggle to gel at the start of next season so we might not be at such a disadvantage

Yeah Askey is still the manager, he oversaw an amazing turnaround last year and is going for stability this year by resigning most of the out of contract players.

Mr Askey will get the best out of him at the Vale

Decent signing for Vale, I'm sure he is at a League 2 standard and he won't be a massive earner, I wouldn't imagine!

Good to hear - and had a feeling he might! His pace is certainly fast enough for a higher level.
