Remember it well, we went down there full of hope against a shit Torquay outfit after signing Junior Bent and Inchy Heath on deadline day and needless to say we saved our worst performance of the season for that day....

Yeah we beat Norwich 5-0 on my wedding day in 2006, there was a couple of dozen happy yet pissed off Stokies at the wedding that evening  It's the only home game my old man has missed in 25 years...... |

I remember it for being in the main stand with Torquay fans an yelling 'Get up his arse Bent' as he stood off his man for the umpteenth time. One of those moments where there was a pause then laughter around me and I realised what I'd just said. I was very young at the time. The programme had the entire Birmingham squad instead of ours. Wasn't it an awful Carl Beeston backpass? Their number 5, Wes someone had Biggins in his pocket for fun that day. Stayed the weekend with a lady friend in a hotel that cost us a fortune

27th Dec 76 relegation season. Thrashed at home 4-0 by Liverpool. There’d been some hope first half of the season but mid-season run of 8 games without a win, including the Boxing Day defeat to the Dippers, helped seal our fate.  |

Stand corrected it was at Anfield on Boxing Day which fell on 27th that year because 26th was Sunday.

Stoke 1 Middlesbrough 0 1987, George Berry scored
It was 0-0 at half time, the priest announced it before the 4pm start.
By the time the ceremony was over it was 1-0

No, I got married on a Friday.
A friends wedding (from Cheshire, no Stoke connection) was on Saturday the 16th April 2011. There was some initial concern that I wouldn't make it but ended up going. The best man was a man city season ticket holder who wasn't overly happy about being there and not at Wembley for their match with Man U.
We left the reception quite early. I didn't drink either. Had things to do on the 17th...
My friend has asked me a few times since if I'd still have come if the Stoke game had been on the Saturday. I've always said "Yes, of course"
