Hello and welcome to our Thursday evening edition of The Valiant. We are looking at the Vale’s transfer search, the signing of Uche Ikpeazu and why Vale have brought in the centre forward as part of a longer term plan.

We’ve also got a scouting report on Portsmouth as Vale prepare to go to the league leaders on Saturday. Also included is news from this afternoon’s press conference, updates on a former player and manager, opinion, reaction to your views, a look at a big game 40 years ago this week…and more.

Thank you for your support, it’s been fantastic since we launched The Valiant a week ago. Please read on for more.
