    We usually struggle against big horrible physical teams but not today. No today is an 8-1 massacre to the cuddlies. The noise generated today after our 2 early goals will see us rip them apart, our tails will be up and there best means of defending will be kicking lumps out of us.
    Joffy HT, Amad, Clarke, Roberts, Baath and Pritch will complete the rout.

    PS, Double Maxim is a lovely drink. I may have had a couple too many last night.

    Cheers RTB. Yet another superb write up.

    Stoke fans are definitely not confident about playing us. Stoke mates think that a goal for us and they'll crumble and we'll hammer them. Also said that they'll happily join in with the '**** Alex Neil' chants <laugh>

    Add in a couple of sendings off for them and you’ve got it spot on. <applause>

    Stoke’s second string were decent against Brighton from the bits that I saw - not the slow cloggers from old. They’ll give us a few problems and I reckon we’ll need to be clinical to put them to the sword.

    All set up to be an exciting game with a bumper, up-for-it crowd.

    Cheers mate.

    Our hotel is near Halfway House so we'll pass the ticket office on the way to the pub ...

    ...should be pretty quiet, you'd think most people will be sorted by now.

    Not confident today. I think the big crowd might have a different energy with Neil getting some of the attention. They'll be scrappy and ugly and if they frustrate us for long enough, it might end up being a tough afternoon.

    Really hope I'm massively wrong but my gut is saying 0-1.

    Just received this message for our hotel check in <doh>

    For check-in anytime after after 16:00 today, we have a lockbox by the door with a key inside. Just enter code 1973, then change the combination code and you’re all set. Then at checkout just pop the key back in, then change the combination once again.
