Nationwide League Division Two
Tuesday, March 30, 2004

Port Vale Swindon Town
B.Paynter (14'), S.McPhee (41', 58')
HT: 2-0 S.Parkin (63'), M.Hewlett (68'), R.Fallon (83')
Attendance:  5,702 (494 away fans)   Referee:  E. Ilderton



 
After future Town striker Billy Paynter gives Vale the lead, Stephen McPhee scores twice more to give the home side a seemingly unassailable three goal cushion with half an hour remaining. The Town have other ideas though - goals from Parkin, Hewlett and Fallon rescuing a point.
