It's suddenly looking very exciting. I'm not to sure about that. If we can't pull some bunnies out of the hat now, no one will sign for us in January. How many did Derby get at that home last year??? Savage, and the same can happen to us if Pulis can't get his finger out of PC ar$e.

.... and we've given away a lot of points in the early stages before under Pulis because we've haven't got a godd enough team to start with. Bolton away could have been one of just a few games during the season where we can get points away from home. The season starts now, and it's at this point we need to have the team ready.

We need to strengthen now not in effin January. We do this every year, arse about until either the very end of the window or it's too late, this year we won't be able to get away with it.

So what players do you think we should bring in that will be automatic first 11 players. By stating that you think we are arseing about, you must believe we are missing some obvious targets

we could already be down by then! need the strength now! Not sure about being down, but we could well be entrenched in the bottom 3, and how many top players would want to join a club destined for relegation ? . ???

Not sure about being down, but we could well be entrenched in the bottom 3, and how many top players would want to join a club destined for relegation ? . ??? Anyone read Catch 22? Any of the supposed bottom 8 are going to be in exactly the same postion, and worrying about the same things. If we are mid table of the lower Prem then this season will surpass promotion from the CCC. How many players does everyone think there are available at the price and wages that Stoke (lower Prem/upper CCC) can afford and people here can name. It certainly isn't the hundreds that previous posters would have everyone believe. And how many of that list would anyone here seriously consider would at this moment in time be telling their agent to batter TP's door down to get in and help Stoke survive their first Prem league season (and name them). What would you have said to someone like Kitson who had several options open to him why he should join Stoke as opposed to other Prem clubs, and don't come back with crap, this is real negotiating here. TP/Coates et al have some bloody hard bargaining to do to get ANYONE at all into Stoke, especially as some weren't even born when we were last in the top flight and in this day and age if you don't have stolen far East money or lucrative Irish connections then you have to be pretty creative to make a players eyes light up.
