Streams? Anyone know how we even came to be having a one-off game in Europe? They are from Erlangen, Stoke on Trents twin town and have been promoted to the bundesliga.

What a fantastic time we had out there, stood with all their fans behind the goal (10 euros to get in), a fantastic bunch, £1.50 per pint and a few saw heads this morning!! Not many Stoke fans there..... and the ground looks nowhere near done but I wish them all the luck for this season. We even managed to teach some of them the Robert Huth Chant.

The game itself is being played near a place called erlangen. Correct me if i am wrong, but is that not Stoke on Trents twin city?? Well spotted. Maybe thats the reason for the tie..? Think it may be. Well erlangers, your english twin towners are heading your way to show you our style of drinking !!

1.22 was definite top 20, possibly even top 10, the bloke who finished 3rd with the congleton running top on, i have seen him at stoke before i am sure.

for a Blackburn fan to suggest bolton blackburn be a passionate local derby is bollocks when anyone in football knows that the blackburn derby is against burnley, a fixture that will be taking place!!

Is it only me who'd find it just as much fun sending Bolton down? I personally agree mate, yes bolton is closer for the away day but as long as stoke stay up i could not care less. I go to the away games and dont mind where i go. 47 points everytime, and lets fuck 2 lots of wanderers out the prem this season !!!

1. What will be the score be on Monday? I will go for 1-1
2. The Summer transfer window is creeping around the corner,will Tony Pulis have much money to spend? Hard to say, i think there will be comings and goings but unsure as to how much cash will be set aside
3. I keep hearing that Stoke City are interested in Stephen Warnock would you welcome him at your club where would see him fitting into the squad. I think he is a good player but his more recent performances have been below par, if he became a stoke player pf course is deserving of a chance.
4. Do you think Alex McLeish will keep Villa up this season Yes, there are other way poorer teams in the league. I have to say though i was amazed when you announced him as manager, especially with his connections from the outfit from Small Heath coupled with the fact they were relegated under him last season. 5. It has been visible that Stoke City enjoy their European Cup Nights and trips, which has been the best European away game and why? From all the games the majority of people will say valencia, to have thousands of Stoke fans in spain, in the sun was an absolutely fantastic experience. I also have to say though that the atmosphere at hadjuk split was like non i have ever before witnessed... and FC Thun of switzerland was such a laugh too. Following the club across europe has been something i never expected and will never forget.
6. If you could have any Villa player in your squad who would like? Agbonlahor
7. Obviously the end of season aim is qualify for Europa League is this a realistic achievable target This year no, not sure that was our target, our record is 47 points and I think that is an achievable aim for us this season.
8. Who would you like to see join in the Summer? We need a creative midfielder and some wing cover, no doubt endless names will be thrown about as per usual.
9.What do you think that Aston Villa need to merit they efforts of three seasons ago? I have not seen a lot of villa this season, though i believe a change in management structure would be beneficial.
10.What Stoke City player is your biggest threat to Aston Villa tomorrow night. Peter Crouch
11. What three clubs will be relegated from Prem League and why? Wolves - 6 points behind six games left, tough games, already down in my eyes. Wigan - Very tough run in, Chelsea last sat with man utd to come Blackburn - Its more that I think QPR will escape and also think Bolton will find the incentive with what happened to muamba etc..
12. Have Stoke City sold their allocation? what was your allocation? Not sure how many we sold but Monday 5.30 i cant see 1770 making the trip at 40 pounds. I shall be there but it has been an expensive season for us this year, tomorrow will be our 51st game of the season
13. Will there be any difference between Stoke City vs Villa from the game back in December, if so what? Think it will be a close game, as for difference i dont know. Stoke are safe now but from our point of view would be nice to finish as the top midlands team. That said we have a tendency to play to the standard of our opposition as our game against the dingles sat and wigan the week before showed.

My source tells me it was nasty and large scale and stoke were outnumbered and a few took a bit of a kicking.
