Loan Watch

We take a look at those players currently away from Vale Park at the moment.

Young Harry Pickering was in goal for Kidsgrove Athletic this weekend in their 1-1 draw away at Sheffield FC.

Another goalkeeper, Ryan Boot, who has recently joined Macclesfield and season long loan watched on from the bench as the Silkmen's game was abandoned due to fog against Dover Athletic.

Elsewhere in the National League, 'keeper Sam Johnson was an unused sub for Gateshead as they lost 3-0 to Woking.

There was some better luck for loanee Ryan Lloyd who did well in Chester's excellent 3-0 win away at Eastleigh.
 
Nathan Ferguson did not feature in Southport's thrilling 5-4 defeat at home to Braintree Town. 

Finally, JJ Hooper is still on the sidelines as he recovers from a knock, meaning he played no part in Northampton Town's 1-0 defeat to Bolton Wanderers.
