Welcome to edition 330 of The Valiant. Pic by Pete Stonier

Hello and welcome to our Thursday evening edition of The Valiant for August 28.

We’ve got talking points from Darren Moore’s press conference this afternoon, are reflecting on a great couple of days for the Vale - see you soon Arsenal - and also looking forward to Saturday’s league game at Reading.

That’s all part of what you’ll hopefully find to be a good read packed with news, analysis, opinion and nostalgia.
