Every bloody season, in some way, Stoke always make us sweat over certain results of current form. I think these last 2 defeats are only a wobble in the season and we will hit the top again soon and then, that will be it...We will not be knocked off after that.
I still say it will be Stoke and Watford promoted automatically, then the rest can do whatever they want. Would still like to see West Brom fail to go up again but if we did go up we need them there for our usual 6 points!

It wouldn't be stoke if they didn't make us sweat a little.

At the end of the day as traumatic and stressful as watching Stoke is, we are still excedeing most of our expectations! At least thats how I mask my pissed offishness with!
At the start of the season when someone posted a 'where will we come' thread as many predicted a relegation fight as a promotion fight! I predicted we'd come just outside the play offs again and I was one of the more optimistic ones!
With ten games to go almost everyone is saying the play offs will be the LEAST of our achievements! So come what may this season is going very well! I just hope the players re-group and give it a real good go in the last few games.
Looking at the table there is a fag paper between the top five and all five of us have looked in pole position at some stage! The team to forget the nerves and get back to doing what they do best will win!

If we replace Pugh with Dicko at Left Back and Diao with Delap in the next few games and we bring Riggot in to give Cort and Shawxross a kick up the backside then we have a chance. If we don't we'll continue to get spanked. For £1.2 million of defender and apparently the best header of a ball in the league, why does Corty keep getting beaten in the air by the likes of Rowan Vine??? Come on Pulis bring in Dicko and then no wingers will get down the wings. Dicko's commitment and aggression really benefits the team. Its great to see him putting in tackle's like this: uk.youtube.com/watch?v=iKrmBo16xLE |

I bloody love that film... waaaay ahead of its time, more relevant now than in '76... without being a pedant... its "I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not going to take THIS anymore" |

every team in the country are putting their fans thro the same , whether its the fear of relegation or the opposite with promotion. Trouble with us stokies is we dont half take the "glass half empty or half full" to the extreme.

Wouldn't have it any other way, every match is exiting everyone on the edge of their seats. Surely its better than being mid table with nowt to play for ??? we will go up be it automatically or the playoffs.  Results don't come easy in this league and the top 10 and bottom 6 or 7 will also be sweating on every result the same as us. |
