 STOKE CITY Vs MANCHESTER CITY
FA Cup Fifth Round Replay
Wednesday 24th February 2010
Britannia Stadium - 19:45 kick-offUnfinished business in more ways than one in this fixture, great chance to make the quarter finals! My 'realistic' starting XI dependant upon injuries etc would be.... Sorensen Huth Shawcross (c) Higginbotham Collins Lawrence Whelan Whitehead Delap Sidibe Fuller Unbeaten in 10 and hopefully this will make it 11, and we can march on in the cup! Goooooooaaaaaarrrrrn Stoke!  |

Match not on TV and not on FA live Tv site - but they are showing Spurs & Villa matches! That's good news. Should be a great atmosphere with another capacity crowd  |

It maybe now or never for alot of this current squad. A 6th round FA cup match doesnt come along very often and being at home with a fierce crowd behind them, against opposition still in transition from manchester's also-rans to potential future trophy winners, is a great oppotunity to progress further in this competition. With-all the fairly positive media views of Stoke as a tough team to now play, and the current good run, i'd expect a confident, 100% commited Pulis eleven to battle their way to a victory. I'll say Stoke to score two goals & win in 90 mins.

Id play Beattie and Kitson in the reply
give em both a run out in a match that doesn't really count for much
see how they are doing
rest the first choice strikers for satdee
(saying that, even now, Beattie would always be my first choice over Sidibe)
but hey - there you are !

Can't make it - watching the match at work on-line but still REALLY excited. The only sinking feeling is that one I get when we should win.
That said, you can see the entire team are up for it.
2-1. Nervous last 10 minutes against a 10-man Citeh.
Goarrrnnn Stoke

There was a great song sung at Eastlands last season (To the "Sloop John B / We've won it two times" tune):
"You'll always be shit
You'll always be shi-i-it
Even with the Arabs
You'll always be shit"
It'd be nice to hear that at "Britannia volume" tonight.

anyone know how much the prize money (for getting to round 6) is?
+ shared recipts for the 6th round
+ of course the prestige of getting to round 6
+maintaining unbeaten run
..which in turn would build confidence before playing (full strength this time?) Arsenal on saturday
+we get to (some degree at the very least) extract revenge for last weeks injustice
+ we get to put Mancs in their place
+further FA cup exposure will help raise the profile (which as we have seen in the last 3 windows,diminishing each time but still too low,has hampered our attempts to attract players)
all the above are reasons in themselves for taking tonight seriously imho
