CHELTENHAM PORT VALE 5 1 TOM POPE slated Vale for a “Sunday league” performance.

Mohamed Eisa bagged a hat-trick as Elijah Adebayo and Will Boyle also registered.

Pope scored from the spot but admitted Vale had been awful.

He said: “It was like watching my Sunday team again, the mistakes were criminal.

“By the end we were begging for the whistle.”
