Wycombe manager Matt Bloomfield admits he is starting to sound like a broken record after his side once again failed to hold on for victory.
The Chairboys have now gone 10 games without a win in Sky Bet League One, but this was two points they allowed to slip through their fingers after failing to kill off a match they had dominated.
Vale had offered precious little before Ben Garitty’s 90th-minute header cancelled out Kieran Sadlier’s goal and the visitors were far happier with a point.
Bloomfield said: “Everyone is going to get sick of me, if they haven’t already, talking about stats and talking about performances (because) it’s about results.
“We are so, so close in every single game and we have to retain that belief because this cannot go on forever where you can keep being in games and keep getting in winning positions and it goes against you, or come out of games where the shots, the stats, everything is in your favour.
“We have to make sure those moments go in our favour to equal results.
“The way we counter-attacked, we could have had those moments and we didn’t, but we didn’t feel any threat at any point.
“It was a long ball just hooked into our box, we had enough bodies but we have to see those big moments out.”
Wycombe deservedly led after 51 minutes when Sadlier got on the end of Garath McCleary’s superb cross.
But the visitors snatched a draw late on when Garitty’s header from Baylee Dipepa’s cross was adjudged to have crossed the line before goalkeeper Max Stryjek got down to it.
Port Vale manager Andy Crosby said: “I think it’s a good point in the end.
“We came here after winning our last two games and we found it difficult to get territory in the first half because of the conditions.
“Obviously we were playing against the wind and they had us on the back foot and we had to defend our box.
“It was good that we got into half-time at 0-0 and we changed things a little bit.
“We want more end product, obviously, and in the first half the times we got into the final third our final ball let us down a little bit.
“Wycombe play a certain way and they probably deserved to be in front, but we kept going, we found a way, we made positive changes and we got the goal.”
