I liked Emnes in behind Bony, he caused Cardiff some real problems in the first half last Saturday, I like the fact that he runs at defenders and takes them on, his pass to Routledge was very good, more of this we need, for his first game back with us, he past with flying colours!................

 

This game may well get postponed due to the high winds.. Inspection of the ground expected at 6:20.

 

I was thinking the same you beat me to it, wind speed is just currently 13 mph, though gusts are up to 26 mph, if it stays like this game on I think!.....

 

6.19 now.......

 

Ref seen flying over Hanley

 

Holding a brolly?

 

Bit windy at the Britannia!....




...But better during the pitch inspection...



Still waiting....

 

Man City game called off? not looking good, storm must be picking up!..................

 

hmmmm another inspection at 7

 

Game going ahead!................

 

This from Stoke Fc twitter account..

"SCFC's Premier League game against Swansea at the Britannia Stadium is to go ahead as planned as it stands."

 

Citeh game postponed.

 

Yes, just showed Mark Hughes on the pitch on Sky Sports News giving the thumps up to the camera crew! their route one long ball could be in trouble tonight...........

 

From Swans twatter

NEWS: @stokecity expect tonight's game to be ON. Met Office forecasting that winds will drop after 7pm

Hope so. Been really looking forward to this.

 

Kickoff been moved to 8.00

 

yep changed to 8pm due to travel issues

 

Vorm, Rangel, Flores, Williams, Davies, Canas, Britton, Dyer, Hernandez, Routledge, Bony.

Quite pleased with that line up

 

Hope it goes on but if it is very windy then it will hamper our passing to some degree but not as much as it will stoke with their long ball football. Vorm will have to be careful that he is not off his goal line to far in case any possible long ball goes over his head and into the net...
