Looked very good, next week promises to be a very good game......
2-1 win for us I think.... Fuller and Kitson.
Will be have to be awake at the back though, lots of pace from Villa could have us in loads of trouble.

it's already a very important game for us with some very tricky games to follow - we need at least a point and I think we can get it.

As long as Fuller and Lawrence start I think we have a good chance of a sneaky win/draw

I think the main reason Dull got their result yesterday was because they were at home. It's a massive boost to the players with 20 odd thousand behind you and thats no swipe at Stokies yesterday, they were tops, sung myself hoarse ha, our turn next week, bring it on ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Was funny just before match kicked off when they read out there team and we broke out in Delilah, couldn't hear the guy at all.

I don't disagree miffmister, but Everton, Liverpool and Chelsea is a bit trickier than Bolton, Villa and Boro.
If we have no points going into September I think even the most optimistic will be a little concerned.
Villa is a massive game.

I know what you mean, I never thought I would see Stoke in the top flight. Started watching Stoke in 88 so missed our last time there. I went to Bolton, but it still hasn't really sunk in to be honest, I seem to be living on a cloud at the moment! ;D |

but i think, even on todays performance by man c, it proves that whether we go up or down, depends on our home form.talk about our goals against bolton,man c's were just as bad!

Firstly, our full backs will have two watch two of the Premiership's paciest wingers, Young and Agbonlahor, we dont do wingers too well, Agbonlahor netted a hat-trick.
I believe we will be different at home and will give it a better go then we did on Saturday, as long as we can keep tabs on them two.

Villa are a decent outfit, we will need to be switched on for 94 minutes to get anything out of them.

don't fancy us against villa, but i hope i'm wrong. hopefully new faces will bed in quickly, but there again i think it will take time. we need the other clubs around us to have a bad start, and then maybe we can get amongst them, when new players settle. goooaarrrnnn stoke.

Can't see us beating a side of this quality, even with a few very good signings.
2-0 Villa.

I would love us to get something vs Villa but they are at another level to the likes of fulham or bolton also in carew they have another big lad who wil trouble us plus awesome pace.
We wil need to really get in their faces and show none of the fear that affected us on Saturday , then we might nick something.
We should be a lot better with fuller and liam starting and hopefully faye and davies too
