 Today they take on the Granford City side, but have started to hit their stride in the new manager, Mike Hughes. Successful greens for the Bansams at league leaders from his green last Saturday, with Hartley Ball in midweek. They bring that form home here today, where they have lost the launch of four matches, one in six. All head scratcher this home form for Granford City, they win the opening two home games of the season. Two of 16 since, and Mike Hughes starts to put that right. He's looking for them, and you can think here today against the Port Belt side, gunning for the playoffs. Not the strong start. On the edge of the area, the effort comes in, it's just wide of Bassey's goal. They've arrived here, having won their last two, building their step here. They've been rattling the goals in as well, four against Crawley last Saturday, three against Mansfield. In midweek, relaxed, in the Granford City dugout. Mike Hughes-Smith and Wilson. It's the opportunity to advance it. They've moved forwards well, and it draws the free kick. There's a free kick in a decent position here. The Port Belt dropped off the front line, sort of a gap and attacked it from this set-piece situation. Wilson was a scorer. It comes in interesting technique, and no chances taken, tipped over the top. Finally, Bas. Walker's hit, and it was moving awkwardly for the Bradford keeper. Perhaps have had the better of it. Going to run, and a chance here for Port Vale, and it's a long, wide of the far post. Best sight of goal that we've seen so far this afternoon. Eatley worked. Couldn't provide the finish. Some real legs off the Bradford. Portsmouth is running the menace here in this game. And a chance to get a strike away. Deflected, and back off the crossbar. So close to an open-up. Haven't seen too much of Bradford in front of goal so far this afternoon. Eatley found, and was cut. Just peeled wide left, and that could have gone anywhere. Perfectly for Port Vale. He came back off the crossbar. Frustrated. They didn't get themselves in front in that first half of a huge side relief. With their crossbar late on. Bradford coming forward to it. Impossible angle, really. Charging to the box. Played. Just couldn't turn it. Four games away from home for Port Vale. They'll have to put that right to... Push for the playoffs. It's the gap coming into this game today. Sounds like a building. Some momentum. Sprawl back, it's an awful clearance. There's another opportunity here. Fired across goal, and it's turned in. Garrity gives Port Vale the lead. He's amongst the goals right now. Two this time last week in the 4-1 win against Crawley. He's on hand to make the breakthrough here. It's 11th lead goal of the season, but it was a goal that was so avoidable for Bradford City. It felt kindly for Garrity. Doubting that, right place at the right time. Port Vale strike first here this afternoon. A response. It's a pass out of defence. He's possession over. Garrity gets the better of his man. Can he pull it back here? It's a great challenge that comes in. Real opportunity to double the lead there. Garrity knew that he had Wilson to try and kick out. He rolled it back. Just look at that challenge which came in. Brilliant defending. Not just go alone here, Wilson. He does go alone. By two goals to help James Wilson, where he picks up possession. Nothing can't prove that the Bradford City defence has the challenge you have to ask. Not happy. Bass beat him. Port Vale on their way to picking up three valuable points here this afternoon. Some time this will be his first appearance to the 29th of January. It comes off. Only by Sutton. Oh, perhaps. Come back in this game. 20th time to work with. Great deal to do in the Port Vale goal so far. The cross. Comes to him here. Bradford back in it. And it's the substitute. Charles Vanham who strikes. His first goal since November. Just the impact that Mark Hughes wanted from him when he threw him up. Tried to make something happen then the ball came back his way. Huge deflection to take it past Stone. He's game on here. 20th time against Boris Breen and Hartnickle for Bradford. Coming into this game today. Not have a chance here. Not have a real chance here. And it's fired into the side netting. Walker's effort. There were plenty inside this stadium. Who thought that was in to catch out Stone. It is near posed and just put it the wrong side. Thought by folds. Back forwards into the area by Cook. A header well won and it breaks here. Cook can't catch it cleanly and there's still a chance. Port Vale are hanging on now. With the opportunity. Great ball into the box. Look how well this header was won as well. Good clean look at it. And the header up and my but maybe the weight from goal by Hall. Port Vale almost there. It's the full time whistling. Look what it means to the Port Vale players. Bradford. Beating at home again. He has been. Difficult season for them here. But it is a huge win in Port Vale's push for promotion. Then Garretty and James Wilson with the goals. Chokesman came off the bench to pull one back for Bradford.
