Port Vale defender George Pilkington believes that his team-mates are all playing for their careers as well as the Valiants survival in League One.
Ex-skipper Pilkington whose contract at Vale Park expires in the summer told BBC Radio Stoke: "You worry that you will be told that you are out of a job and we could be faced with that situation in a few months.
"Things tend to get sorted out later rather than sooner as you wait for the club to produce something."
The Valiants have suffered a torrid time since manager Lee Sinnott arrived in November, with Vale only picking up ten points during his time at the club.
Now 14 points adrift from safety, Pilkington remains positive: "We've still got something to play for and obviously we will go out to try and win every game.
"We can't blame luck for the way the season has gone. We've just not been good enough."
In more bad news for Sinnott, midfielder Shane Tudor has been ruled out for the rest of the season after going under the knife to cure a hamstring injury.
