League Two Results 9th October 2010 Part 2

Hereford United 1-1 Port Vale
It was bottom v top and Port Vale had until this match only lost one away game. Hereford’s losses included seven games and their manager Simon Davey so this wasn’t a bad result at all. Hereford will be disappointed after missing a penalty, while Port Vale had an offside goal ruled out but as Hereford went down to ten men after just 25 minutes, maybe the overriding emotion is relief.
Hereford’s physiotherapist took charge of this match – they might be off-form but Hereford are very much on-trend.
Ryan Green returned from illness to play in defence for Hereford alongside Ryan Valentine and loanee Tony James. Stuart Fleetwood missed out with a back injury.
Gareth Owen played in defence for Port Vale.

Lincoln City 2-1 Macclesfield Town
Lincoln climb out of the bottom two after beating Macclesfield.
Sam Wedgbury made a late substitute appearance for Macclesfield.

Morecambe 1-0 Shrewsbury Town
Morecambe got their first home win of the season with victory over Shrewsbury. Shrewsbury remain in the play-off places despite a fifth consecutive match without a win.
Tom Bradshaw has done more than his fair share of supersub goal-scoring exploits so no-one can blame the teenager for not doing the business for Shrewsbury this time.

Oxford United 0-1 Aldershot Town
Aldershot’s victory lifts then above Oxford, who spent more than half the match with just ten men on the field.
Injured defender Rhys Day, now at Oxford, missed the chance to play against his former side.
Darren Jones played the full match for Aldershot but Aaron Morris was on the bench again.

Rotherham United 1-1 Stevenage Borough
Rotherham had to be content with a draw against Stevenage but at least they’re still in the top three and still unbeaten at home.
After scoring in Rotherham’s Johnstone’s Paint Trophy over Burton Albion, Mark Bradley was back in the starting line-up.
