Hello and welcome to a special edition of The Valiant for Wednesday evening, February 14.

Darren Moore sat down with the local media for interviews this afternoon so we are dedicating this edition to a look at the new boss.

There are the talking points from his interview with The Valiant plus we’ve got an interview with Sheffield Star reporter Joe Crann who worked with Moore during his two years at Sheffield Wednesday.

There are also your views on a big week for the Vale. Darren Moore’s pre-match press conference is on Friday afternoon so, as well as tonight’s special edition, I’m moving our usual Thursday evening newsletter to Friday to cover that in full.

If you would like to sign up to The Valiant, there’s a £20 offer (50% off) for your first year. That offer runs until the end of February. The price you pay on the day you sign up covers you for your first 12 months but also includes access to all 73 previous editions since we launched at the start of October.
