I'd be over the moon with a draw. Last season, we rolled over all too predictably. Stoke seem to have all the attributes we struggle against defensively. And if Perch is at centre back? I shudder at the thought.
A point for us would be a good result. Everton at home next weekend is definately a winnable match for us. 3 or 4 points from these two fixtures would really take the pressure off of the Man U and Man C matches. In our favor is that Krul is 100x better coming for crosses than he was last season, much more assured and the defence have confidence in him. He'll have plenty of those to deal with tonight. Stoke fans - is there anywhere I can park for free? Last season I parked on the Ind. Estate for a fiver. I work in Stafford so can get there early to nab a free spot if there are any. Cheers.
Why aye.. Park on the old Michelin car park i think it's only £3:00 and it's a ten min max, walk to the Stadium. PLUS, you won't have the hassle of having to sit on the car parks after the game.. Directions if you need them are easy enough.. Leave M6 Junction 15 turn left onto A500 drive over first flyover about a mile and a half then get into left hand lane. See the Sign for Campbell Road/Michelin and leave A500. Turn left and about 150 yds take a left at the mini roundabout. The car park is on your left... really easy to find and your right next to the A500 flyover. Walk over that and you see the Stadium on your left... Follow the crowds ... sorted. Good luck and enjoy the game.
No it shouldn't because our defending won us a point that day. I would say the small pitch was a factor and we will have the same issue to tonight.
Stoke are awful. Some of the racist crap their fans threw at Demba was disgraceful. As soon as Delap retires they will drop like a stone.
Really? Did you see how he played tonight? Do you know how many throws we actually score from these days?
Well played fantastic performance and well deserved! What was the racist stuff I didn't hear anything?
A section of the crowd were saying the N word. Sky had to turn the mic down but a lot of Twitter journos picked up on it so may cover it tomorra. Appreciate it was only a minority and that most decent fans think racism is vile.
