It probably seems a bit daft, since we are playing one of the biggest clubs in England, but those lads need us tomorrow like they've never needed us before.
We've had a punishing month so far and have had some really tough games, long distance travelling and some recent games with 10 men. An FA Cup replay that went into extra time would have done nothing for the legs or mind.
Tomorrow we'll be up against a team that can and will pass the ball to death and the lads will need every ounce of energy left in the tank to play the high tempo game we normally play.
I fear for us if i'm honest and reckon the lads need that 12th man to drag them over the line a la Man City last season.
I'm sure we can and will do it and the lads really deserve a rousing atmosphere tomorrow. Unbeaten in 2010 and we're nearly into the third month of the year. A truly remarkable effort from a team only in its second season in the league. It's hard to believe at times.
Go on lads, on and off the pitch. Let's do us all proud.

Agreed good post
we've played a lot of games in this months it must slowly be catching up on the players it wouldn't suprise me if huth gets dropped for faye and wilko comes back to play RB we also need Etherington back as a fresh pair of attacking legs.
Tp has a MASSIVE choice to make do we delap Arsenal like last season or play like we did in the FA cup wenger wil set out his team to try and counter one of theys ways in which we beat arsenal TP nedds to trey and out wit Arsene and play the opposite way in which wenger trys to stifle us.
For me wneger tries to calle TP bluff by saying we're a good football side (which we are) and will set his team to stop delap so TP must play lik ewe did in the cup

I concur with your sentiments, However if a fully charged athelete can not perform for a couple of hours twice a week then it's a poor show do you not think? Regardless we have enough about us to get a result tomorrow goooo arrrrnnnn stoke

It's amazing what winning can do to footballers, however, and as Denis Smith has stated in his Sentinel column tonight, although the players will be tired, that wining feeling can carry players through games on adrenalin.
Having said that, I wouldn't be surprised to see Kitson and Tuncay start up front tomorrow, with Ricki & Mama unleashed from the bench after an hour.
Fresh legs in defence also at full back-i can see both Wilko and Higgy (if fit) starting.
