Would be good to see some fan support at the games for Madsen. We are quick to berate some players and maybe if he starts to see a bit of appreciation (when he plays well) it might spark a bit more confidence.
Stoke are so niggly. Falling over, trying to get yellow and red cards all over. They didn’t deserve to win because of that alone. We’ve got a nice little team haven’t we. Sure we’ll lose games with some of our piss-balling around, but it’s great seeing our forward line when they push forward. Saito, Burrell, Kone, Vale can all play a ball; sometimes it’s great, sometimes it ain’t pretty but they want it! Lovely win! Well done JS, well done boys, well done Rrrrs fans! We’re coming along nicely.
Yup, already commented on Earned me the only correct Hoops score in the prediction league too, so not only do i love Saito but i love Vale n'all
Great win & good game & quality finish by Vale & he’s getting better every game, can’t really fault any of them today, Saito had another good game & unlucky a couple of times, 3 straight wins & who would’ve thought that after Coventry, Urrss
I went to Stoke away last year so this felt especially good for me. The possession for the first half was over 65% to them but we had the better chances by far. It is goals that count, though one might argue that goals come from greater possession. Around about 75 mins, I messaged the lads to say it was now a one goal game and so it proved, thankfully in our favour. We should have been at least one nil up at HT and Stoke were feisty for most of the second half. Madsen does, indeed, deserve praise for a solid game. Morrison's clearance to prevent an otherwise certain goal was both instinctive and skillful. A draw would not at all have been an unfair result but obviously thrilled with the win. Looking forward to every home game but especially at the end of January when we 'welcome' Coventry! Thx Rangers. A good weekend indeed.
Wowza. I think we deserved that. Madsen and Vale and Varane played very well in midfield. Yes Madsen played very well!!! Morrison wins star of the match for that goal bound clearance. Burrell was outstanding with his running. But my man of match was just Saito. Only player who didn't have a good match really was Jimmy Dunne who did get scalped too many times. So questions... Will Mbengue get his 5th yellow in the next match? Who will we play in CD then? Can Chair get back in the team? Can Poku ever get in this team? Isn't it a lovely weekend
Great to get 3 points and I think we deserved it. Madsen had a good game which I can't believe I'm saying. Vale deserved that goal and Saito looks the man to get the ball to. Happy days all round
Only just seen the reel of the goal on Insta. Saito battles and scraps and he really wants it.. Pull back across goal. Their defender clears very poorly to the feet of Vale. Vale slots home. Remind you of anything?! A good omen maybe!!
Hopefully the wheels don't fall off Had ten bucks for us to win last week And the same thing this week Doubt we will pay much for next week Oh and new Zealand s only stoke supporter has to do the walk of shame to my house tomorrow with a dozen beers
Thought Jimmy had a decent game against comfortably their best player.Also his leadership all day was immense.
