We consider the separate spin channel contributions to the charge conductance in superconducting/ferromagnetic spin valve $F_1/N/F_2/S$ structures. We find that the up- and down-spin conductance contributions may have a very different behavior in the subgap bias region (i.e. there is a spin-split conductance). This leads to a subgap %EM2 added spin-split conductance peak in the total conductance. This peak behavior, which can be prominent also in $N/F/S$ systems, is strongly dependent, in a periodic way, on the thickness of the intermediate ferromagnetic layer. We study this phenomenon using a numerical self consistent method, with additional insights gained from an approximate analytic calculation for an infinite $N/F/S$ structure. We study also the angular dependence on the relative magnetization angle between $F_1$ and $F_2$ of both the spin-split and the total conductance. We do so for realistic material parameters and layer thicknesses relevant to experimental studies on these devices. We also find that the spin-split conductance is highly dependent on the interfacial scattering in these devices, and we carefully include these effects for realistic systems. A strong valve-effect is found for the angularly dependent subgap peak conductance that is largely independent on the scattering and may prove useful in actual realizations of a superconducting spin valve device.
