Giving Football Back to<br />
Small Business<br />
At eBay, we know small business and<br />
football clubs used to be like chips and<br />
gravy, two peas in a pod – a match<br />
made in community heaven.<br />
Ironmongers, ship workers, spring<br />
makers and cobblers, all formed clubs<br />
which decades later are still prospering.<br />
But nowadays, you’d think it was all<br />
eyewatering transfers, Super Leagues<br />
and mega sponsors, detached from the<br />
humble origins of our historic clubs.<br />
That’s why eBay are proud to support<br />
300,000 small businesses who help<br />
power EFL clubs nationwide. We’ll be<br />
donating our advertising space to a lot<br />
of these businesses – on match day<br />
hoardings, around grounds and beyond –<br />
throughout the coming season, to ensure<br />
they can continue to thrive in our local<br />
communities. So, join us in giving your<br />
support to Small Business Power, because<br />
today, they need us more than ever.<br />
IN PARTNERSHIP WITH
Football is a game of many opinions, but<br />
there is one that we must all share. There is<br />
no place for discrimination in our game. If<br />
you do not agree, then you are not welcome.<br />
If you see or hear discrimination in this<br />
stadium, please report it to the nearest<br />
steward or via the Kick it Out App.<br />
Because we are all<br />

<strong>Wanderers</strong> continued their fine run<br />
of form with a hard fought victory<br />
against <strong>Port</strong> <strong>Vale</strong> at <strong>Vale</strong> Park. The<br />
win stretched the team’s unbeaten<br />
run to eleven games.<br />
Gethin Jones struck in the second<br />
half after latching onto Dapo<br />
Afolayan’s low cross to fire a shot<br />
past Scott Brown.<br />
One negative occurance during the<br />
game was Antoni Sarcevic hobbling<br />
off with an injury which would keep<br />
him out of action for 5 weeks.<br />
