League Two Results 16th October 2010 (Part 2)

Port Vale 0-0 Gillingham
Port Vale won’t be very happy after playing a third consecutive game without a win but they’re probably still happier than Gillingham. While a point at the home of the former league leaders is actually pretty good, equalling a club record for number of games without defeat is slightly less good. Especially when the number of winless games is 33.
Gareth Owen helped Port Vale to their clean sheet, by both earning the Man of the Match award and supported his central defence partner Ritchie Sutton through his first league start.

Shrewsbury Town 2-0 Lincoln City
Shrewsbury won for the first time in six matches but the run can’t have been as bad as it sounded. Shrewsbury are 5th in the table, four points from the top of the table and unbeaten at home.
Tom Bradshaw was on the bench for Shrewsbury.

Southend United 0-2 Crewe Alexandra
Crewe’s run of five consecutive draws came to an end – and luckily their unbeaten run didn’t end with it. This was Crewe’s first away win of the season.
Peter Gilbert was dropped to Southend’s bench and Crewe took full advantage. Nathaniel Jarvis came off the bench late on and tried to help but he couldn’t get past Crewe goalkeeper Rhys Taylor. The good news is that Wales have a great goalkeeper waiting in the wings. The bad news? He plays for Chelsea.

Stockport County 2-1 Barnet
Stockport won at home for the first time since February. Admittedly it wasn’t against the best team in the league – Barnet have only one point from away games this season - but Stockport got the same number of points as they’d have got if they’d been playing Chesterfield.
Loanee Anthony Pulis again showed he’s not as bad as people think when he got the assist for the winning goal. Owain fon Williams was on the bench for Stockport.
Barnet loanee Grant Basey missed out with an ankle injury.

Wycombe Wanderers 1-2 Chesterfield
Chesterfield move to the top of the table after beating Wycombe although part of the credit must go to Gillingham, who held Port Vale to a draw.
Craig Davies scored both Chesterfield’s goals. Robert Page was back on the bench.
