Just When It Couldn't Get Any Weirder For Port Vale

The HQ has covered the travails of League 2 Port Vale as part of our coverage of all of the administration issues this season...

They've been docked ten points because of their financials, and now they've had to have a late-season match abandoned with possible-promotion candidate Shrewsbury Town because of what happened below...

From The Guardian newspaper:

Shrewsbury striker Terry Gornell told BBC Radio Shropshire: "The initial reaction when the lights went out was that you see it all the time and that they'd soon be back on. You're in the game and you're not worrying about what's happening off the field.

"But, as soon as they started evacuating the stand, you knew there was slim chance of it carrying on.

"The main thing is nobody was hurt and it all went smoothly but we're in shock. We can't believe this has happened. It was one of our best performances of the season and we were playing some great football."
