Port Vale are still clinging on to life as a League One club.
Vale travelled to Walsall tonight in their penultimate game of the season, needing a victory.
A goal by Chris Eagles in the 85th minute means that Vale are now just a point behind Gillingham and two behind Bury.
Port Vale with 48 points need to win at Fleetwood Town on Sunday and hope that Gillingham don't win at Northampton or Bury win at Southend United.
