Reading / Vale delayed due to a pitch invasion, on the 17th minute mark, and Bolton / Cheltenham delayed due to a medical incident in the crowd, on the 32nd minute.
Hopefully the League award the game to Port Vale, or at the very least compensate the financial losses of Vale and particularly their supporters. I expect the EFL will sit on their arses as usual.
While I get our rivalry with Reading, I do fully support their actions. The demise of Reading is starting to look worse than that at Bury and I believe this is only the start of the story.
It's also further evidence that the FA & EFL are unfit for perpose and something needs to happen at the very top! Too many unfit / stupid people with money thinking they can come in and buy their way to success. It makes me thankful that we have a switched on owner who did his research before buying us and hasn't screwed us over (yet!)
The EFL are an administrative body which is run on behalf of the member clubs.
The EFL charged Dai Yongge with misconduct in September and recommended a 12-month suspension in November. It was rejected by an independent disciplinary commission.

Cue Scott Oldham, our referee this afternoon, brandishing his fifth red card.
Looks like a minority of particularly low-life Coventry fans disgraced themselves in the lead-up to that game. What on earth goes through people's heads? https://www.theguardian.com/football/2024/jan/13/police-remove-banners-on-m69-motorway-mocking-srivaddhanaprabha-helicopter-crash-leicester-coventry
no words to describe that.

Portsmouth three down at home to Leyton Orient.
Including a missed penalty from Pompey.
Bolton V Cheltenham has been abandoned after a fan in the stands was taken ill i hope they will be okay.
Match abandoned. Oh boy.
What did you do, Uche?!
Whatever he did, it wouldn't be scoring a goal.
Reading fans did a tennis ball protest then stormed the pitch, apparently. Solid.
Grimsby - Notts County looks fun, 5-5!
That one came home to roost.

Mind if I ask what a tennis ball protest is?
Chucking tennis balls onto the pitch - disruptive but not destructive. It's become a fairly common thing in anti-ownership protests.
Reading will be selling off second hand tennis balls cheap then!
Ah, thanks.
They did it during their FA Cup game last month too, so they won't be short of balls!
A Reading pal reckons their fans are already planning the exact same action at their next home game.
Difficult times ahead and fans of whoever is playing them away next might want to consider the wisdom of going.
Or take a tennis racket!
That form of protest has moved on.
Fans storming the pitch and refusing to move is a lot more difficult to move than a few tennis balls.
The EFL might force the match to be played behind closed doors
They will have to look at this soon as the forum noise is they'll keep doing this until they force their owner out.
And forcing a foreign based millionaire owner out won't be easy.
And this penalize all the innocent Port Vale fans ...

Wishaw Wycombe Wanderers are through to the last 32 of the Amateur Cup, after beating Insch 2-0 yesterday. Match was played at Inverurie.
At least one Wycombe Wanderers team is on a good run!
