    Welcome back TMDT after a forced absence, take a bow RTB <applause>. A lot of good points made already and points here for us too . So lets hope we are not talking about the Ref after this game, but our strength in depth, with the bench making a positive contribution this time in bringing home the spoils. OaU

    Wouldn't shock me to see Pritch, Jobe and Ekwah in a 3. We will miss Neil, but Pritchard's in-game management and experience will definitely help.

    Early goal absolutely vital here.

    As usual, I'd take a point away from home but we've got more than enough to win.

    Praying that Ekwah is fit and partners Jobe in CM.

    Solid as F*ck midfield and we will be too much for Stoke...

    As previously mentioned, most of the Stoke fans want Neil out and they easily turn against him and the team. Their support is dropping, and our away support is second to none, so get behind the lads and we'll frighten Stoke into submission.
    Few scoops in the Harvester near the ground should help.
    Haway the Lads!

    That's what I'd do, if Ekwah isn't ready then Adil starts. I think we need three in there without Neil because he does so much of the defensive graft and the others are more attacking minded.

    I'd like to see Adil start anyway regardless of where he plays.

    I thought someone said the press conference was at 1 o clock?

    It's ****ing hopeless. Why is it beyond the club to stream the press conference live on the club website?

    Bit pointless then. We'll get the important stuff later on from Hunter/Smith I guess

    Very short video.
    No new info
    We got an apolopy from the efl
    Dan Neil's absence will give an opportunity for someone else to shine.
