Saturday should be interesting!
MH going to one of his old clubs on the back of comfortably the worst 90 minutes of his reign.
I suspect we'll be much more competitive than in Saturday's debacle.
Well we better fucking had be.
But I'm an optimist, so I'm looking forward to Saturday!

And if the football is crap, the River Thames always provides plenty of interest. Well the last 3 out of 4 games it has

There's a bit of aggro between Hughes and Jol I think. Certainly don't like each other

But I'm an optimist, so I'm looking forward to Saturday! Well you had a real disappointment after a long trip mate on Sunday , Yes and no. I hardly get to any games - my son plays football on Saturdays so most weekends I watch him and his team; which I love doing. So when I get down to watch Stoke it is always very special for me; win, lose or draw. I love this club. Even when t does my napper in! My last game before today was the Boxing Day win over Liverpool so I can't complain. That was one very special game. Thanks for the thought though.

I've got a feeling we'll do better away from home this year but slip up against a few teams at home like Norwich. When teams sit back against us we tend to struggle. If Fulham go for the win on Saturday then i think we'll score on the break.

MH needs to find a plan B against Fulham which we never had against Norwich.

Another match when the opposition manager is apparently under huge pressure to save his job.
Who then rolls into town.....

Fulham are very poor this season and Jol is in trouble. Mind you, Norwich were very poor this season and Hughton was in trouble before Sunday and we all know what happened there.
In theory there's no reason we can't go there and win, apart from us not going there and winning of course.

Their manager is under pressure should be our cue to have a tenner on the outcome made especially worse when you watch our so called wc keeper let in easy goals and our great team togetherness being shattered with childish rows.
This game will define Hughes, he has to get a grip of them.If we get a repeat of the Norwich game we might as well turn our stipes into hoops and hold on tight.
If I had any teeth I'd bite my nails =)

If Jol has been paying attention he would have seen how easy it was to nullify us - basically get in our faces and pressure us into misplaced passes and silly errors.
We really need to step it up 2 gears from Sunday and the midfield have to play a much bigger part in our (limited) attack. Jones surely can't be such a fanny two games running.
I'm a bit nervous about it already, tbh - our season could go either way right now...

0-2 would be rather nice and needed to keep us around mid table. Us scoring twice seems very unlikely.

I hope there's a couple of changes to freshen us up. We need a lot of the team to prove themselves again after Sunday. Fulham for me lack fighters. They look good on paper but not a side who you could see rolling there sleeves up.
I'd go with
...................................Bego...............................
GCam..............Huth...............Ryan.............Erik
....................NZonzi...............Palacios...............
....Arni........................Ireland..................Ethers..
......................................KJ..................................

A good team that, mate. If Assaidi gets a spot in the starting XI (which I doubt), I'd like Crouch to start though.
