That was brill , Sheron was always good enough for the prem a real class act ! That was vales best ever team fer me and I’m stoke season ticket holder 39 years so was at the match! Great too hear big Ron on commentary! Enjoyed that cheers
I was the assistant groundsman at Stoke back then, you actually see me at half time, I'm the one on the left. I was always sent towards the away end to put the divots back and I remember taking some proper abuse off the Fail fans. It was well worth it though 😂 What a game and what a great atmosphere in the Vic. How cool did Delilah sound 🥳Special memories of that ground it was a proper intimidating place for the away team with the fans so close to the pitch. It was a real privilege to work there during the Macari era and he was, apart from being a great manager also a top bloke. Up The Mighty Potters! ✌️😎
Wow just watched this, so long ago. What a day 30 yrs old back then. Still go now. Hasn’t it all changed. Loved the Victoria. Proper football days out.
Loved it and miss it Peter, never be the same again football wont now.. Its a money game and if you haven't got it , you can forget going anywhere if ever making the Prem. They ought to make it a 8 Team Division, because in my humble opinion there are only ever going to be 8 teams that will win it ( ok Liecester was a one off lol. Take care and stay safe my friend.
@@oldnook totally true Jon. Even went 2 away matches in jan and feb this year with the guys I went that match. Still have a great time. Think we are looking much better this season and fingers crossed we improve and make the playoffs. Thx for the comments and enjoy the memories 👍
@@Inmyopinion10101 hi mate. Yes we are looking a decent team this year, we do need a goal scorer though. We could still make the play offs if we could get wins against poor teams instead of getting a point. Lets keep our fingers crossed my friend. (Y)
Vale fan here, I was in they away end right behind the goal and glad I went to the last ever potteries derby at they old Stoke’s Victoria ground, it was a cracking atmosphere and always has been and have to say Stoke were the better side all through out the game, the problem was with Vale the pressure was getting to us before the game, we missed out on they automatic promotion spot and lost to Stoke and lost on a play off spot too
Hi Billy , great reply there mate, only just seen it. I have always been Stoke, even though a cousin of mine played for the Vale back in the 70s, 74-77 I think, Terry Bailey is his name, he came from Stafford Rangers to you. Always loved the atmosphere be it at the Vic or Vale Park. Shame we both out on promotion in the same season. If you see this Stay safe and take care my friend.
Great atmosphere in those days, loved it when we had the stoke end too as well as the boothan it seemed so much louder. I used to go into the paddock great fun when young.
Hi. I have never seen this game on TV anywhere even though I remember that season really well. I would be interested in a copy of this game if u still have it bud. Am really pleased u have posted what probably is the best Potteries derby at the old Vic. :)
do you have a playlist of all derby highlights or even full copies as I'd like to watch them and piss off my mum's partner whos a Vale fan. thanks dude.
@@paulwhilton7197 Very good old days mate, it was a special day for us when Man Utd were in town , looking back at it I still wouldn't change a thing. You take care and stay safe my friend.

u can't beat the old style terraced grounds these all seaters have ruined the atmosphere at most grounds especially the prem teams

My dad is there taking his England hat off I was there as well rip rooster I'm still here we are stoke
We need another potteries derby as soon as possible!
You might get it the way stoke are playing

Quality 👍 Cheers for posting. Miss the Vic so much

Fantastic video mate.
Despite this result, Stoke were falling apart at the end of the Macari era.No away goals in his last 8 games as manager
That's me at 2:07 giving it the big in at the front . What a little nob Ed I was . Fond memories of that end
Someone should show this to mark Hughes this is how stoke should play
8 away defeats on the bounce before this...1 goal
He beat Man U ,City, Arsena l, lLiverpool ,Chelsea etc...not some shitty basement team
Does anyone know why Mike Macari never played football again after this one season. He could have done well in the lower leagues then gone from there
He went to forest for a while
Another victory against the great unwashed
do you have a playlist of all derby highlights or even full copies as I'd like to watch them and piss off my mum's partner whos a Vale fan. thanks dude.
Vale had there brief stint in the sun and now are nowhere to be seen
Great Delilah towards the end off the game
marvellous ✌
Go On Stoke
good player mike mccari
He really wasn't
Her really wasn't
Miss the "old Vic" ex Boothenender
Man u fan loved stokes old vic park always good atmosphere when man u turned up good old days

Rose tinted glasses off, The Vic had come to it's end.
We hate vale
Stoke City are a joke of a club now. Even with the mighty Bet365 behind them they are poorly run and have no ambition.
I bet port vale give stoke hell outside the ground. Proper boys port vale. Not like N40
LOL 😂😂 Unfortunately for you - you need to get your facts correct... As usual the fail got battered....
I highly doubt that as the N40 are known as one of the most notorious firms in the UK
Yes being a evertonian really just having fun with you guys . Don't take football seriously we do have cricket
Vale didn’t have a mob when it mattered used to come about 20 handed 😂
