When we went down to 10 men against Man City and won 1-0. Loads of folk in work up here after that game commented how batshit mentally intimidating the atmosphere was.

Pissing all over Fulham in the final home game of 13/14 was one of the most enjoyable games I've ever seen us play. We rarely played with as much confidence as we did that day.

Can't decide between the day we twatted Arsenal and Anthony Taylor robbed us of getting 5 or 6 or Villa first season.
Honourable mentions of course to December 2015 where anything briefly seemed possible.

They may have been scared of us going forward but we were shit scared of them at the back and in midfield as well. It had to be won in the last minute because if the game had gone on for five more they probably would have scored again. We got pretty lucky to win it tbh. It was an exciting football match but I never get how Stokies say they "enjoyed" this game (until the last few minutes). edit:- also it wanner boxing day, it was a few days later

Can't decide between the day we twatted Arsenal and Anthony Taylor robbed us of getting 5 or 6 My Arsenal mate messaged me at 1-0 in that game and said "this could be 5 or 6". My brain still struggles to compute how we supposedly "only" won it 3-2. Without that phantom offside that game would be up there challenging the Man City 2-0 as our best performance since the 70s.

There’s loads that deserve a mention but for me the Hull away game in the 1st season up when I’m pretty sure it made us safe takes some beating and the mental that followed Liam’s great strike was unbelievable. As for the worst Chelsea away(in injury time) I could still cry now thinking about it and the tube journey back to Hillingdon where I wanted to kill someone

Everton (a) Boxing day 4-3.......Shaq 2 (1 worldie), Joselu and Arnie, they were scared of us. Problem with that match was that it was the beginning of Hughes starting to shit himself.
He stuck with the system v Man City for about 5 games then tore it up which after the 0-0 vs Arsenal, brought us 3 consecutive 0-3 losses, not to mention the 3 in a row towards the end of the season of 4-1, 0-4, 4-0 losses.
Most enjoyable prem game for me is a tough one. The absolute mental when big John Carew Robert Huth netted the winner in the 3-2 vs Sunderland was amazing, the 3-2 vs Villa, 6-1 vs Liverpool, 2-0 vs Man City. We had some bloody good games in that league.

Yes, was the goal that secured our stay up that first season. And, just because it never gets boring....

one that always stands out for me, apart from the many obvious one's is the 5-3 defeat to Liverpool on a sunday afternoon. Despite the defeat I left the ground that day fully entertained.

This might seem a bit weird, but for me the QPR game and Jon Walters hat trick spring to mind. The reason being is that I rarely recall a Stoke team being so confident and routine in the win. I knew they would win before hand and so did the team. It was just so, so routine that I remember thinking we belonged in the a Premier League as one of the mainstays for years to come and it would have to take something monumentally fucking stupid to balls it up.😞

Any number of games from the first 2 years of the Premier League years, the complete unknown factor and us being up against the world, couple that with the solidarity between us and the players, great times.
Other than that, the 3-2 against Chelsea, any number of Arsenal home games, Man City 2-0, Liverpool 6-1.

Man City. THE ROAR unforgettable I still get goose bumps thinking of this. If I remember correctly they were getting on top and Bellamy had a shot that was just wide. The players seemed to droop and then the ROAR. You could see them looking round wondering what was happening but they knew then that we would not let them lose.

The win over Arsenal in the first season was the one for me. We just dominated them all over the pitch and Rory's throws were making them shit themselves every single time. As RVP was walking off the pitch for nutting Tommy I remember looking at the shit old scoreboard and seeing "Stoke 2 Arsenal 0" (before they fluked a consolation) and just feeling that we had properly made it. It wasn't a lucky cup draw etc, this was Stoke in the Premier League and we had absolutely ripped Arsenal apart. It was brilliant. The other one that really stands out for me was the night we beat Liverpool 2-0 in 2010/11 and Kenwyne and Ric put in what sadly turned out to be one of very few devastating performances as a partnership. I came away from that night thinking they were absolutely perfect to play off each other and would take us to the next level. Huth and Shawcross at the back, Etherington and Pennant on the wings, and then the two bruisers up top absolutely bouncing off each off each other, it was peak Pulis Stoke for me.

Incredible how we beat the top teams in the country so routinely that I can't even remember some of these games.
