1900–01 Burslem Port Vale F.C. season

The pre-season saw the return of Stoke legend Tommy Clare, now aged 35, and inside-left James Peake, following a season with Millwall Athletic.Goalkeeper Alfred Maybury made his debut on 8 September and never missed a match after that, though he was still released at the season's end (later joining Chesterfield).[1] James Peake and Alfred Maybury departed, and full-back Frank Stokes was sold to Reading; but otherwise the original team was retained.[1] Taking note from the previous campaign, the playing budget was reduced by over £750, though gate receipts dropped a further £235.[1] In the FA Cup, a 3–1 home defeat was recorded to Second Division rivals New Brighton Tower in the opening round.
Midfielder Bert Eardley had another solid season.
