For me I'm happy enough till about 1.30 -2.00 pm. Then I get the team news and see that the same players are starting that have started the last few games that we have failed to score in.

Don't bother listening to the team news so it's usually about 3.05pm - 3.08pm. Just enough time for us to set the tone.

approx 3.00-3.05 (superstition within our group is to always miss kick off) when i get out the taxi on the roundabout and spark a fag up walking down the path to the southstand. that fag is the last bit of enjoyment i have until half time!

It varies.
For away games we're definitely going to lose, it's usually the moment I wake up and remember the fact there's a game on.
Tomorrow I'll probably be a mixture of cautious optimism and frantic nervousness, which is exactly how it should be. I'll certainly need beer, which is no bad thing, because I live next door to a shop that sells Pedigree.
That worrying but bright outlook should last the whole game, regardless of team selection, if the players play the way they should play.
But the optimism will ebb quickly if I have to watch Crouch with that forlorn look on his face as he trudges around the non-danger area, Shotton petulantly waving his arms in frustration after yet another poor cross or Nzonzi shrugging his shoulders like a French version of Kevin the Teenager when a couple of decisions don't go his way. I'm more tired of our players acting like a hard luck story than I am of Pulis talking about our hard luck story.
Other than his poor substituions, I don't really get frustrated with Pulis until after the match, when I reflect on how he's weakened our team instead of strengthening it over the past two years.

As soon as I see Crouch is playing, but it gets much better when I get to the ground and realise why I support Stoke and what a great club it is.

On the journey to the ground we never normally get to hear the team. So it starts to go down hill for me when I get to the ground and see the team sheet hanging up by the bookies. I see Crouch up top and my heart sinks a little...then Whelan....a little bit more....Walters...the pain! Shotton on the wing and not even a piping hot Bovril can help.
