Fixed all that for you ;D Don't let the Croatia press see this. There will be riots and a several civil wars. I think it's just the Balkan "Persecution Complex"* *note this is a joke, I am not being serious. Please do not take it so because I was simply making fun of a historically preconceived idea. Please don't kick me in the head with your jackboots you bunch of Neo-Nazi's** ** this is also a joke, making fun of the idea that some think that anyone who is Eastern European is a fascist, when in actual fact you're just poorly educated*** *** again, joke. You're not really poorly educated, just lacking culturally and thuggish**** **** remember that joke I keep talking about? Yeah this is another one. I know you're all touchy and have a severe persecution complex but please don't take it seriously (see point 1 (*) again) SERIOUS PART: On a serious note us using that badge was a bit of a poor show, considering the very recent and traumatic history associated with communism.

The season starts tomorrow night as far as I'm concerned. Big match, historic and in front of what looks likely to be a decent crowd (attendance wise).
Would have been nice to have been approaching the game tomorrow with a few new faces on board, but we must hit the ground running and aim to get over to Croatia with a lead or at least no away goals conceded.
I'm excited by the prospect of it all.

Begovic Wilkinson-Huth-Shawcross-Wilson Pugh-Whelan-Delap-Etherington Pennant-Jones Subs: Sörensen, Shotton, Woodgate, Whitehead, Diao, Tonge, Marshall Unfortunately, it seems Walters is out by the flu. Fuller and Mama are not ready yet either, so... Pennant will step up front with KJ. Marshall and maybe Tonge or Shotton gets a chance up front as well as substitutions later on I guess.

If neither Pennant nor Etherington can participate also, it looks really bad:
Begovic Wilkinson-Huth-Shawcross-Wilson Pugh-Whelan-Whitehead-Delap Marshall-Jones
Subs: Sörensen, Shotton, Woodgate, Diao, Tonge, Soares, Lund

Is this pretty much your best starting lineup? One of those two "worst scenarios" IF Walters, Pennant and/or Etherington can't play.

Post by groarrr on Jul 28, 2011 0:17:32 GMT
So all the available starters should play? No chance of playing reserves and letting us beat you?

Only if it had been the domestic Carling Cup maybe. What players should Stoke be watching more intensively? Keep an eye on so to speak.

Two losses vs Brentford and Aldershot (3rd and 4th division respectively) last weekend don't say that much.

Unfortunately, the game is NOT on tv anywhere. Hopefully, it will be some kind of Live coverage somewhere in some form; radio or text messages.

If everyone is fit...
Begovic Wilkinson - Shawcross - Huth - Wilson Pennant - Delap - Whelan - Etherington Walters Jones
However, Walters, Pennant and Ethers have set backs/injuries so who knows.

Well striker Ante Vukušić is our best player.. he's been linked with move to top clubs for a while.. but he'll stay for another 6 months.. Inoha, the Jap fella is also very good player. Very calm at the back but can also go upfront and be dangerous. Tomasov and Sharbini can be Messi and Ronaldo combined if they want (or if they are sober in Sharbini's case) but that happens like every 20 rounds.. so no worries for you Fullbacks are new guys.. James and Lima.. They both seem to be great when attacking but not too convincing at the back. Goalie is Cro NT 3rd choice Subašić.. he's average as they get. Our captain is Srđan Andrić and he's typical defensive midfielder. Runs a lot but he isn't that good in technique terms. Upfront partner to Vukušić should be new fella from Montenegro Vuković who played fairly well against Šibenik and Barca (our 2 previous games) but its still too early to say. We're missing Aussie central back Milicevic.. he'll be back for the return back however.

Totally agree! But with 4-4-2 instead of 4-4-1-1 And Huth<->Shawcross and Whelan<->Delap switching places. Nighty night!

Srdan Andric sounds like Whitehead/Delap.
Fucking useless at shooting/passing but will run all day chasing the opposition.,

Stoke is the worst passing team in the whole Prem League. But we have different players scoring and don't have to rely on a single striker to do that. And we have the best throw ins in the world. Good keepers. And they're working 'aaaaarrrd.
