October will be interesting. A run of games like that could set the tone for the season.

Rotherham was the first game of the Season in 90/91 as we started the title winning campaign under Alan Ball ðŸ¤
Stoke City v Rotherham United, 25 August 1990
Score 3-1 to Stoke City Competition League Division Three Attendance 13,048
Remember Noel Blake scoring a very good header at the Stoke End, but not much else!

Why are Stoke Swansea games nearly always mid week? First game I look for family reasons.....and no it's a no goer again next season with it being midweek Still the Yuletide treats around Christmas will have West Mids Police getting into a flap for sure, where as the barometer for the up & coming season will be Rotherham. After all in classic Europvison mode "nil points" last season cost us dearly, with us having around 50+ shots combined but unable to make the net ripple.

Yes the majority of single goal home defeats were deserved but that one should have been at least 5 to Stoke Terrible finishing of course

Given we all know it's crucial for Stoke to turn around the home form those first few games look perfectly reasonable All those sides are probably thinking Stoke away is a kind fixture mind

FFS - all I wanted was an away game first up as we are in Gran Canaria until 10th - season starts way too early given its finished on May 4th!
Shitty over Xmas again with no Boxing Day or 29th home fixture
New Years Day is always full of pale looking people - no doubt we will get some stupid 12 o'clock kick off
All of this of course before Sky start to fuck about with the schedules and we end up with multiple Sunday 12 noon kick offs where thousands of kids and their parents who play Sunday league cant go or get there on time - worst decision ever - that graveyard slot wants fucking off - would rather play 8pm Sat night!

He did, in front of the Boothen. Want to say he got the third but not 100%

Saves you the pain of going to watch us have 30 shots and lose to a counter attack again.

It’s remarkable how little variation there is in our fixtures year to year. Always play the same teams around the same time.
I suppose it’s all the factors they have to put into the super computer.
