Pretty sure i'm not the only Gills fan hoping for Stoke to win the thing this year - Tony Pulis a legend who deserves trophy- gone but not forgotten at Priestfield!
Sadly I cannot make it down to Wembley, but I think its BLOODY RIDICULOUS HOW THE SEMI FINALS IS NOT ON TERRESTIAL TV! It's on effin' ESPN! I have SS1 and I thought that worst to comes to the worst it would at least be on THAT!!!!!! BUT NO!!!!!!! Stupid FA. And we won't be able to see in a pub, unless the pub has two tv screens, as the liverpool vs arsenal game is on SS1 at the same time, right!?! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!
JUB, Being on ESPN made me more determined to get there! I could not picture myself ending up at the nearest pub in Hastings wearing kit and being the only one shoputiong at the screen! I hope you do manage to see it at least on some screen LIVE. Best of luck!
I believe, that we can make it, I believe we can make a difference, I believe at last the rest of the world will hear and see just what were about as supporters, we should make Wembley the bear pit for just the afternoon, I believe come what may we will make our lads feel like they playing at home. STOKIES LOUDEST AND BEST
Official coahes 1 - 30 are on the West car park, 31 - 90 on the North car park, you can get on them from 8.45, coaches will leave as and when allocated seats are filled, toilets available in the Boothen End, parking in the South park, this is for those who have not checked the official SCFC page
Lawro god bless him, he has us going down 2-1 on Sunday, lets thank him for putting the curse on Bolton, not that we needed anything to gee us up, but thanks anyway Lawro.
Hey mate I think its a bloody outrage, how they've decided to let both games KO at the same time, and its obvious that pubs AREN'T GOING THE FAVOUR STOKE. Luckily I think we've found a pub that'll show it, two big screens with ESPN, so fingers crossed. Sadly my family can't take time off work to go down to Wembley, and being a non-driving female, I'd have to find transport and things like that, and there's so much going on in london with the marathon etc, I didn't fancy being embroiled in it all on my own! I don't mind being there in the pub to be honest, in fact I relish the fact that if we score, me and my parents will be the only ones cheering! I hope you enjoy Wembley, give them a shout from me mate! P.S Must dash off to paint my nails red and white, get in the spirit of things
Hey Jub, I'm with you gal,just watched manu v manc...any reason why theirs is televised on ITV and not ours...what a joke!!
having to watch on espn but we will be making some noise at home in leeds.shame i could only get one ticket needed two.hard game to call but if we apply ourselves like we have recently who knows.sign of the times when big teams are on itv and we get espn.subscibed just to get the game. go on STOKE.
Jub, Have no fear I will shout for you too an dall the others not able to make it. I actually play squash from time to time with the manager of Operations for screening on ESPN so when I see him again I will ask him to get ESPN in more pubs. Too expensive at present on top of SKY!
Hey everyone glad you agreed with me, its bloody ridiculous an OUTTTRRAGE! kentpotter, you tell him that! And if any of you wanna see the nails, lads? please log in to view this image
Only been back about 45 mins. Feel physically drained but what a day, what a performance by the lads. Still cannot believe it. We played some fantastic football today. Only one team was hoofing the ball today and it weren't Stoke. I'll admit that this performance had me in tears of joy. Like a baby bereft of his mother I was. Unbelievable. We got interviewed by Sky as well but only my Dad has been shown on Sky Sports News.
Hey Sarge, Yeas, been sobbing all day too! Missed Sky as were staying in a hotel, you could of gotten on the TV!
So glad I booked tomorrow off from work as I don't think I would be able to get up that early after today.
No Jub, i'm too worn out to drink any more. I drunk quite a bit before the game, InvernessStokie was there as well and he brought his saltire with him, and he played the stereotype of a Scotsman beautifully, he was proper pissed!! I should be fine tomorrow Jub, but I will be worn out. I haven't even gone home today, i'm staying at me Dads and will go home to Stone tomorrow morning after a nice lie in.

I was just out of shot sadly.
Ah your lucky you can lie in at your dads, I'm at a hotel, down for breakfast at 10! I'm sure that you and Invernessstokie had a great sober time
