The 2000–01 season was Port Vale’s eighty-ninth season of football in the Football League and first season back (thirty-eighth overall) in the Second Division. A season of two halves Vale were struggling at the bottom of the table when Isthmian League minnows Canvey Island knocked the Vale out of the FA Cup with a 2–1 victory at Vale Park in ‘one of the great shocks in FA Cup history’. They also exited the League Cup at the First Round.
