Port Vale F.C. is an English professional association football club based in Burslem, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, playing in EFL League Two, the fourth level of the English football league system, as of the 2018–19 season. The club was probably formed in 1879^[1] and in 1884 took the name Burslem Port Vale F.C. The club folded in 1907 and the new club dropped 'Burslem' from its name. They played their home matches at the Athletic Ground between 1886 and 1913, at The Old Recreation Ground between 1913 and 1950, and at Vale Park from 1950 to the present day. The club joined the English Football League in 1892 as founder members of the Football League Second Division, resigning in 1907, only to return in 1919.

Twice in the 20th century Port Vale came close to winning promotion to the highest tier of English football, in 1930–31; they finished fifth, eight points from automatic promotion. In 1996–97 they finished eighth, four points away from sixth place Crystal Palace (who went on to win promotion to the Premier League in the play-offs). However a decline then set in and by 2008 the club had plummeted to the Football League's basement division. They were promoted in 2012–13, before suffering relegation again in 2016–17.

First team matches were recorded for the first time in 1882, meaning records go back over 125 years, friendlies are not included in this data (including goal tallies). As of the 2018–19 season, Port Vale have never played top-flight football, they have spent 41 seasons in the second tier, 46 seasons in the third tier, 20 seasons in the fourth tier of the Football League, as well as 16 seasons in non-league football. No team has played more Football League seasons (107) without ever reaching the top-flight.
