WE’RE putting a bit of focus on The Vale this week. You know, Korong Vale that is not like it used to be when the trains stopped daily and carried more passengers south before the days of cost-of-living pressure free public transport.

NOW he has struck again. The football club is being resurrected, according to his “fake news” images. Started a few squabbles about The Vale’s return playing strip.
