For me this is the game i've been looking forward to all season, it's the one game i'd LOVE to win. Apart from the Dingles, Stoke are my most hated team. Do you lot regard this game as a derby? What are your predictions for this game? I know many of you are going in confident and I can understand as you bastards always beat us! ;D Im looking forward to a great atmosphere and hopefully beating you for a change. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/800541/images/KYqg3pYeaerc5lD_P7BR.gif)

Admin - you know where to put this However, he is surprisingly complimentary towards us, so may let him off ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/800541/images/0m0lbCuTEBzaRn6f8QaM.gif) On the other hand, WE ARE GOING TO HAMMER YOU AND SEND YOU DEEPER INTO THE TUNNEL TO THE CHAMPIONSHIP!!

Maybe you could have started off on a better foot if you'd not mentioned how much you hate us ![::)](//storage.proboards.com/800541/images/cj7bsBj2jOTuEAUVaPt5.gif) Mowbray hitches ride to Fizzy Pop League.... ![](http://img.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2007/04_03/TonyMowbray_468x562.jpg)

you are overdue a win against us wba, maybe this will be your time, a defeat against you wouldn`t be the end of the world for us, but I still feel we need to pick up a win and a draw somewhere on the road between now and the end of the season. Honestly, id settle for a draw, for you, a draw sees you relegated IMHO

regard it pretty much as a derby game just with the added bonus of we always get a result against you. Good atmosphere, similar sized clubs, similar passion and support, two clubs who know what its like to be shit, I always remember fondly the 30 odd thousand at your place when both sides crawled out of the old third division.
Its a shame over the past few seasons your fans seem to have a chip on their shoulder over the passing style verses our more direct style.

Normally, I think we would all be very confident going into this game. It's just that damn 'law of averages' that means you lot MUST beat us sometime soon.
Not this time though!
2 - 0 To the Mighty Potters!

I'm not that confident we will win but I'm pretty confident we will come away with a draw. We are better than the team you faced at the Brit and we looked much better than West Brom that day.
You must see this game as the season end if we win so I reckon you will throw everything at us to try to win it but saying that we can be quick on the counter.
Oh fck it I'll go for a West Brom 1-2 Stoke
I can't help but feel that your team is just not up for the fight sorry fella.

Mowbray is not the reason we're going down.
Its out tight-arsed chairman.
4 Premier League campaigns, 3 Managers, 3 Relagations, 4 Different Squads but only ONE Chairman.

For me WBA is my second derby after the Vale. Being 26 now, I will always remember the great games over the 91/92 & 92/93 seasons, where I can boast winning 3 league and 1 cup game and drawing the other match. Who could ever forget the 4-3 thriller!

You obviously know your club better than us but from the outside looking in I'd say Mowbray is a major factor in your current struggles !

Yea - I dont get where this hate relationship came from. I can remember a time when there was a fair bit of affinity between the two clubs.
I guess it stopped when we kept beating you

I don't really consider WBA as that much of a derby match, certainly I don't hate them as much as the dingles.
I think perhaps it's because it's very difficult to hate a team who have been so generous to us in recent years.

Mowbray is partially to blame, but the problem lies within.
Your chairman has shown ambition by buying proven Premier League players and paying Premier League wages.

Our chairman doesn't care, he's only worried about his back pocket.

What about Valero you signed? didnt you pay 6 mill for him? Is that the chairman not showing any ambition? Or Carson for 4 mill? It aint your chairman mate, the gaffer aint got a clue. Its alrite playin passin football, but if you dont have any backbone you get murdered at this level, and mowbray just aint realised that

It's not the fees I'm complaining about, it's the wages. We've got the lowest wage budget in the league and that's not gonna keep us up. Some Championship clubs have got a higher wage budget than us!

Its the manager that signs the players tho. Its because he signs unknown 'up and coming' players that fit in with his 'project' that they dont have high wages because they are just happy to be playing in england

I have to agree with the fact that your manager has been a liability not only in the dressing room but on the field. I'm not sure he has the respect of the players and he constantly drabs on about quality.
If we tried to play the (Mowbray) way, we would probably be bottom, Tony had a plan to spend money on players that would suit a certain system to battle the way through the season and at times play good football. These players would bleed for our club and that's why we could stay up.
Playing carpet football against established Prem sides with a low budget was a disaster waiting to happen...We did say though
