Tags: Soccer Club Season.
The 1983–84 season was Port Vale’s seventy-second season of football in the Football League and first (fifteenth overall) back in the Third Division following their promotion from the Fourth Division. The club suffered a horrendous start and John McGrath lost his job before Christmas; he was replaced by his assistant John Rudge. Rudge instigated an immense turnaround in results but Vale still ended up relegated six points shy of safety.
