List of Port Vale F.C. players (1–24 appearances)

The club's first team has competed in numerous nationally and internationally organised competitions, and all players who have played between 1 and 24 such matches are listed below.

In the early days, the scarcity of nationally organised competitive football meant players could spend many years with the club while making few such outings.

Strikers Tony Sealy and Alex Jones both scored ten goals in successful loan spells the Vale, helping the players to prove their talent to their parent clubs.

David Healy only scored three goals during his loan spell but would go on to become Northern Ireland's record scorer.

Marcus Bent was one of manager John Rudge's last signings and was quickly sold on for a £75,000 profit in October 1999.
