Adams told the club website: “I think tonight, we had a lot of top performers.
“We had to because Port Vale are, quite rightly, in the middle of the table and we’ve now cut the gap between ourselves and a number of teams.
“I thought it was a good advert for League One football. Both teams passed the ball, competed, created chances and we were eventually able to find the breakthrough.

Hide Ad“I was just delighted for the players tonight because they deserved that.
“They’ve been through a difficult time at stages and not got the breaks, but tonight we went at it and got the win.
“It was tough, they threw everyone on at the end and threw crosses into the box.
“They put on a number of strikers, they probably had four on at the end, and I thought the players stood up to it; that’s the character you need.

“It’s probably not the best place to learn it in League One, but they’re certainly doing that.”
