Back to it folks
I fancied our chances until yesterday, that win at OT for them is something that could change a season.
Was quite pleased for Kean to get that win, he's had some right shit up there.
I'll take a point.
Does anyone know if you can pay on the gate?

Can we pay on the day for this one, because I've been really disorganised and forgot to get tickets...

3 points from 9 would be pretty crap return from a Xmas programme that looked good for us before 26th December; 2 points would be awful, 5 points would be respectable. TP will probably play defensive as usual, but I would love to see an attacking line up and try and hammer them from the start.

This is the line-up I'd go with:
Sorensen
Shotton - Huth - Shawcross - Wilson
Pennant - Whitehead - Palacios - Etherington
Jerome - Crouch
Let's have a positive response tomorrow lads. Come on Stoke.

Play it tight to begin with and then really go at them in the second half.
They will be up for it in the first half but will tire after half time following the effort they put in at the theatre of screams.
I can see 3 points coming our way if it's 0-0 at half time and the Yak is kept on a lead buy Huth.

I reckon Matty will miss this game and it looked like Huth was feeling his injury near the end so it'll interesting to see the actual line up and at least Shawcross won't be right back and Sonko in the middle like a previous visit to Ewood. |

hope this is a "after the lord mayors show"performance by blackburn tomorrow.
very much a winnable game. but in true stoke style a match we can easily loose as well.
so in a true fence sitting sort of way, we could loose this or win this.
after all that, i go for a draw.
1-1.
as you can see, i'm a new poster.
be gentle with me..heh heh.

This match will be tough as any. BBurn have not played badly in last 2 months but their fans and uncertainty have made it hard for them. But they are developing a well balanced siege mentality and finding a blend of youth & experience. Stopping the Yak is critical, as is hoping Samba and up Hanley are kernackered after yesterday. I don't think CJ should start. He was great for 15 minutes yesterday, but his football brain and technique is hit and miss (but better than KJ) Take away CJ's pace and he'll be well average. SJW is the start as his link play with Crouchie is our best form of attack, provided the crosses and throws come in Probably 2-2 or 0-1 to Stoke. |

thought Blackburn we're very poor at the Brit
just one game of course
don't like Kean, some of the things he says are outright lies.

Hate Kean but that win at OT yesterday will do them the world of good as TP will now be shitting it and will go defensively instead of attacking them, he also will have a good excuse if they beat us as it will be that they are a good side because they went OT and won.

I'm hoping that they put EVERYTHING into their game at OT......if not, we'll be lucky to get a point from them IMO, despite the fact that we were robbed against Wignall......

I recall going to Ewood a couple of years ago full of hope, expectation and happiness, only to see us "not turn up" at the start and go 0-3 down in half an hour. Bitterly disappointing game, so am not at all confident today. But always believe that Stoke might get a result - there have been some unexpected surprises this past week.
