I can see what people mean when hey say that "Stoke? Premiership? No chance". Here are some reasons why we will not "Do a derby"
1. We came up automaticaly so had more time to plan and search for new players (although haven't used that time very wisely ???)
2. Derby brought in "Poor Championship quality" e.g. Rob Earnshaw 
3. Stoke are a very phsyical side (Sidibe, Shawcross, Cort, Olifinjana, Diao, Fuller, Kitson, etc) unlike derby so will give the so called 'Big Four' a run for their money.
4. We have valuable Premiership experience in Sorensen, Delap, Griffin, Kitson, Diao, Fuller, lawrence and matteo.
5. And finally we have goalscorers in our team in Fuller, Kitson, Lawrence, Shawcross, Cort and maybe Olifinjana. And Derby only scored 21 league goals last season

There are far more similarities than there are differences.

And Derby only scored 21 league goals last season Point 3, without being pessimistic we ain't getting near The Big four. What we have that Derby didn't have is organisation and a massive unity and character in the side. This will only take you so far. With 5 days to go we are no where near ready. |

3. Stoke are a very phsyical side.... unlike derby That's the funniest thing I've read all day, and it's up against some pretty stiff competition. Have a look at Derby's side that got promoted and reassess point 3. |
