Suffolk Royal,
Cheers fella <ok>
I think we just about deserved the win today! A pretty dour game and I think? Mr Mc D set up for a pt! It was'nt until Jones/Jerome came on and that made the difference for me. A great goal from Jerome proved to be the winner. I was bricking it once you got the goal back but we held out! Not sure if you went to the game Suffolk? But yet again IMHO Pulis started with Crouch/Walters when it was so, so obvious that Jones/Jerome seemed to gee the other Stoke player's into action.

It's a win but all in all, a pretty dull game. Jerome's goal was worth the effort of sitting through a game where, for the most part we cancelled each other out. We could maybe should had led at halt time and HOW Crouch missed I don't know... I guess we (Stoke) got it right eventually.

GOOD LUCK For the rest of the season Suffolk. <ok>
 
Yep, no complaints from me either, Reading just didn't do enough to deserve anything ...

I think the BBC stats prove that -

So well done, and that surely just about seals your place next season. So sit back and enjoy the rest of the year. And if you can do us Royals a favour along the way, so much the better!
 
dai0 - fans like your good self are a credit to your football club.

Well done Sir and I hope we meet again.

Let's hope we can now push on and help Reading! We've still to play Q.P.R. away, Saints Away, Hammers away. Nicky is quite right. Your fans we're excellent yesterday got behind the team and (the club and fans are a credit) to the Premier League. All the best for the rest.
 
Potts without being a pedant, it's Hammers at home mate :-) We drew 1-1 away on a Monday evening when we threw a 1 goal lead away after a well worked corner and Jonny walters goal!
 
Jowler - being a pedant, does it mean you like young footballers!!!

Just asking like
 
That more often than not depends on a certain Mr P and who he has fallen out with that week!! IF he plays the correct players in there own positions then we have a good chance.
 
Soap and water Jowler:
Bloody hell Ye cannot use the words
Pulis, players and.right positions in the same season - oops sorry the same post.

Hmmm.

Anyway what a game Ireland -v- England.
No girlie stuff there a'la Gertrude Bale

I watched the Ireland v England International.. must say I really enjoyed it too! Would be even more enjoyable IF I understood ALL of the rules mind! <laugh>

No holds barred etc, get stuck in. Ref tells the player's to sod off and they LISTEN to him. Apart from the guy who was sinned binned. Could we arrange that for Tony Pulis? Maybe head first in a barrel full of tar might do it!

Great game and a man's game, I'm almost converted, lot's of pens blood and guts up n at em Rugby.

in the same sentence. which is about six years so far !!

And is that Dirty Gertie from number 30 or should that be, Divety Gertie?
 
Yup Potts Blood Sweat n' Beers.
Just how it should be.
I remember.the old Landsdowne Road in Dublin, 45,000 Irishme with 45,000 pints of Guiness singing The Fields of Athenry - spine tingling unforgettable and about 3 policemen un the ground - none outside.

Magic. The old Arms Park with 50,000 Welshmen singing 'Land of my Fathers, Murrayfield with.a dozen pipers and 60,000 Scots singing Flower of Scotland.

Magic unforgettable days. And yes I am a dinosaur!!h

Er where was I, oh yea Pulis and hoofball and cheating diving divas.

Tou guys know me - it's all about honour.
