Another 3 goals away from home and all poor defending by the sounds of it. But didn't roll over and die. I expect some criticism and I am as disappointed as everyone else about tonights result, but yet again we were resilient and at least got a consolation. Tonight just wasn't our night, we will get an away win eventually I'm sure.
Main positive (if only) to take away from the game is Beattie scoring, good debut against Chelsea where he assisted Delap's goal and now a goal for himself! He hasn't even played at home yet. So let's hope he can help us get all three points on saturday.
Team rating: 6/10 Pulis rating: 4/10
Goarrn Stoke, bring on Citeh!

I think we can do it, it's almost unbelievable how different we are at home. Looks like we'll have to rely on home form alone after all. Looking forward to saturday now. I was fuming at half time but now I feel a lot better just because Beattie's scored, that'll be the first of many! Keep the faith lads

Did Fuller come on by the way? We'll win saturday and a lot of people on here will change their tune!... again. Not saying you RF, I agree he shouldn't be starting, perhaps that will be his last

We all knew it would be hard to swallow this season, as long as we are still there at the end of the season I will be happy.

If it was easy, we wouldn't be Stoke! Just like last year, that was the most up and down season of my life but it ended on a high, just like this season will!
Fancy a game on fifa Daz?

There were two positives:
Beatties goal Fuller having a few nice touches & looked totally relaxed when decisions went against him, he even helped Modric up after he blatantly dived
Negatives, too many to name:
Higgy doesn't get forward & isn't a full back We have no midfield - Faye & Whelan not good enough Lawrence still on bench? Griff has no pace Cresswell is a poor version of Andy Cooke We can't pass We score far to few goals We rely far too much on throw in's & corners Delaps throw in's are not effective any more
Oh well bring on Many City

Many City? I thought we'd have a chance of 3 points. I'm not so sure now I know we'll be outnumbered
