2 sent on each side. this was first leg. In the League Cup, 3,460 saw Vale''s opening tie with Northampton Town fail ''to produce the passion of a schoolyard kickabout'', though both sides had two players sent off in the 2โ0 defeat.[1] Vale were then thumped 4โ0 at Sixfields to exit the tournament 6โ0 on aggregate.[1]
