Morning all. Anyone else feeling a bit sick? I just keep seeing Hogan wheeling away after scoring 🙄 Don't. It's bad enough already

Morning all. Anyone else feeling a bit sick? I'm confident that all things being equal we'll win the game, however I have a sense of forboding that's it's not going to go well. It's weird.

They’ve got to keep disciplined as we don’t need silly sendings off or anything like that. Noticed a Wigan player got a straight red and I guess that’s his season over?

The only way I’ll get through it today is by ‘hunkering down’ in the sunshine, outside on the patio with something chilled and a good book. I’ll check the score afterwards and hope it doesn’t spoil my day. I just can’t wait for this awful season to end, hoping that we start the next in the same division with a revamped squad that MON wants.

Today is the best chance that our players will have of some sort of redemption for what has been a horror show of a season. Win today and we’ll almost be safe. Lose and we go down. I have a feeling it’ll be a draw.

Neither of those games were away from home though...... That’s fine then They’re still shit Not won in 10 If we can’t get anything out of this then we are done for It’s not fine. It’s just obvious they’re a far better team away from home. In the same way it’s obvious we’re a better team at home. It will be the irresistible force versus the immovable object....

The most massive game for many years for us. I'm not sure I can stand the tension and I might join Mr Links and drink his wine. Failing that, I'll be in my kitchen, walking around in circles like a trapped bear in a cage as I listen to Radio Stoke. I don't need this at my age.
Goooaaarrrnnn Stoke!!!
OS.

I have a feeling it’ll be a draw. The closer we get to kick-off, and given the results elsewhere yesterday, I am feeling exactly like that, this is Stoke and they are not capable of easing the nerves and capitalising on the one last fixture we have a realistic chance of getting all three points.

Morning all. Anyone else feeling a bit sick? Yep. As a dog - made worse by not being able to watch it - with no match day video pass available

Don’t mind admitting that I’m bricking it. It’s simply the biggest game we’ve faced in years. A game that could well define the shape of our club for years to come.
I hope the players understand the magnitude of a positive result and hope that this bunch, who have bottled it on so many occasions pull through for us. Come on Stoke!

I was asking the dog if he thinks we will win at 5 o clock this morning. I might have had some sort of breakdown...

I hope the players understand the magnitude of a positive result and hope that this bunch, who have bottled it on so many occasions pull through for us. Come on Stoke! This same bunch, on quite a few occasions, have also turned things around completely after a catastrophic result. That's the one thing about them that's giving me hope. OS.

Easy win today I reckon and will go a long way to getting us safe. Is anything ever easy for Stoke!?

Stoke 4 Birmingham 0 hoping for 7-0, need to turn up today no excuses. Birmingham are shit full stop and we are just consistently inconsistent but we are capable of smashing them, so there is hope.

If MON is half the manager we hope he is we get a result today and see Thursday in the light of it.

I was asking the dog if he thinks we will win at 5 o clock this morning. I might have had some sort of breakdown... I was fishing at my local pool last night and caught a 6lb carp, it fought like a fish double it size and never stopped fighting till the last second. I said to it,if only you could play for Stoke! Genuine story,and you think your going crazy. P.s. I'm going back in a minute, I cant cope with the matchday stress anymore.

Jeez this is going to be a stressful watch. It's bourbon for breakfast for me. I just hope we don't go behind in this game, without the famed '12th man' I am not convinced any of these players have the desire to turn it around. A clean sheet and we might just nick a goal
