Loan Watch

Take a look at how those away from Vale Park got on this past weekend.

It was a great weekend for Sam Johnson and Halifax Town as they secured a play-off spot.

The Shaymen picked up all three points at home too Curzon Ashton in a 3-0 win, with Johnson keeping a clean sheet.

It wasn't such a good weekend for Vale's other keeper out on loan, Harry Pickering.

The youngster was on the wrong side of a 6-0 away defeat to Basford United, with both sides missing out on the play-offs.

Brian Barton started for Stafford Rangers in their 1-1 draw with Skelmersdale.

Finally, Ryan Lloyd was back in the Chester side and got 90 minutes under his belt.

Chester fell to their fifth defeat in a row and with one game to go, they should be safe from relegation due to goal difference.
