Redo the brackets. If it fitted before and the pipes haven't moved then it'll fit again.
Even if there was play in the vertical pipe it wouldn't form a water tight seal because it wouldn't line up.
Two options:
1. Find a way of moving the radiator so the pipe and valve line up. You don't say what the situation is with the connection at the other side of the radiator
2. Cut the vertical pipe near the floor and install two 90degree bend adapters to get the pipe to line up with the valve. Because of restricted space these will probably need to be soldered rather than compression fittings

Can you show a picture of the other valve.
