Connor Robertson, aged 22, and 33-year-old Robert Dytiche both ran onto the playing area following the final game of the season at Vale Park.

They have now banned from matches for three years after appearing at North Staffordshire Justice Centre. Robertson, of Newcastle, and Dytiche, of Burslem, both pleaded guilty to going onto the playing area of a football match - Football (Offences) Act 1991.

Meanwhile, Alan Watson-Jervis was also involved in trouble after promotion-winning Vale lost 1-0 against Gillingham at home on May 3.
