It was a slow week for Vale’s loaned out players as only two of them saw game time over the past weekend.

The most successful one was Billy Reeves, who played a part in Witton Albion’s 4-1 win over Chasetown on Saturday.

Ryan Lloyd also grabbed some game time as he took part in the 1-1 draw between Chester and Bromley in Non-League action.

Sam Johnson was unable to make a mark in Gateshead’s game against Eastleigh as the player was limited to the bench.

JJ Hooper was unused by Northampton, in their 1-0 loss against Peterborough, and Ryan Boot wasn’t on the team sheet for Nuneaton Town’s 3-0 loss to FC United of Manchester.

James Gibbons was also out of action in Leek Town’s 3-2 win over Stamford and Dan Turner was left in the stands for Kidsgrove United’s 2-0 loss to Romulus.
