They led at half-time through Dan Potts’ own-goal, before Pope’s double sandwiched a Ben Whitfield tap-in to complete the rout. Vale boss Neil Aspin said: ‘When your team plays like that, and shows as much desire, then obviously as a manager you can’t ask for any more. The players deserve a hell of a lot of credit because they have beaten the best team in the division.’
