Port Vale(3-4-2, 13th) @ Woking(6-0-3, 1st)

Port Vale are 4:5 favorites at our house today, we're 3:1 dogs to win, 2:1 to tie. We lost twice to these guys last year, 2-1 at home, 1-0 at their house. Port Vale finished 11th last year. They are led again this year by James Lawrie, a name i recognize from our beatings last season. He has 6 goals, 3 assists, and 3 man of the match awards in 9 league matches so far.

GK: Lynch
D: Williams/Taylor/Thomas/Ogogo
DMC: Hedley
MC: Upson/O'Sullivan
AM: Collins/Kenny
ST: Harsanyi

We make lots of lineup changes due to our 3rd game on short rest, Smith sits for sucking, Taylor/Thomas at DC since we desparately need Nikolaou to have a day off and Williams moves out there. Harsanyi is up front today, Subotic could go but he's been a bit cold after the hot start. We're attacking today.

6': After a short back and forth for possession in midfield, Upson hits Kenny with a nice ball foward, Kenny into the area... shot is blocked. We keep possession and work the ball to the left for Collins, he's in the area, the ball is tackled away, he goes down... PENALTY! Williams is our kick taker, and he buries it. 1-0

10': A long buildup sees Ogogo on the right, the penalty area is quite crowded, he puts a low ball into the area, O'Sullivan with a solid volley.. off a defender and behind for a corner, but we can't do anything with the corner.

15': Port Vale takes their first shot, they are able to get a solid look in the penalty area but Lynch stops it.

17': A great through ball to Lawrie for Port Vale, he's in a perfect position to score... shoots... lynch with a diving save!!

24': We earn two corners, the first is crossed in dangerously and we had a guy with a good chance to score, but they clear it behind. No goal though.

30': Harsanyi makes a long run up the middle, juking one defender, taking a shot from about 19 yards out... its a good strike and the keeper barely gets a finger to it. Extremely good save. Corner comes to nothing.

39': Defender Signorelli with a foul just outside the penalty area. free kick by upson is struck off the left crossbar.

42': Kenny is hurt, he stays on but he's noticibly slowed.

HALF: We dodge two very dangerous chances and take our 1-0 lead into the locker room. We shoot 7 times, 3 on target. They shoot 4 times, 2 on target. We have a 56/44 possession edge, and as we very often are we dominate in the air winning 70% of our headers, just 53% for them. Bell-Baggie comes in at AMR for the injured Kenny.

55': Tons of possesion, tons of highlights all by us, but only one off target shot so far.

68': We skip ahead instantly to the 68th minute, port Vale on a free kick, they take it like a penalty, to the short man, he launches a strong ball to the far post which is volleyed in. 1-1 Very quick and impressive goal.

88': Subotic in for Collins, Subotic ST, Harsanyi to AML.

Very little in the way of highlights in the second half. A very quick strike by Port Vale to tie it up and only 2 shots taken by Woking all half.

Woking 1 : 1 Port Vale

Their assist man is man of the match. Mike Williams has our goal and earns a 7.5 rating. Harsanyi 7.1, Collins 7.0, Hedley 7.0. Both teams end up with 9 shots, 3 on target. We really controlled most of the game at least as far as the highlights that were shown, their attacks were all very quick and catching us off guard. We stopped two, but the third led to their goal. This is our first tie of the year, 6-1-3!
