  1. not a classic game by any means but 3 points is what­ counts.not an easy game for the fans to get fired up­ about but i reckon we did enough. bit worried for­ burnley though they froze at the back every time we­ put them under pressure, i reckon they are in for a­ tough season, good luck to em though and their fans who­ did their best to rally their team. cheers paulm

  2. good 3 points for Stoke. Although the result was never­ in any real doubt. I fully expect us to take something­ out of every game we play at home this season. Ipmrove­ our away record and we could be looking at top 10­ finish. There will be goals from Fuller and Beattie for­ certain, with Lawrence and Etherington adding a few and­ obviously the likes of Shawcross and Faye chipping in­ some headers from set pieces. Add to this goal threat­ with the hopeful return of Sidibe, pray for Kitson to­ show why we payed 5 million for him, and some new­ recruits before the deadline and the futures bright for­ the Potters.

  18. "GOAL FOR STOKE! Rory Delap claims his first­ assist of the season when he hurls in a throw from the­ right, the ball bouncing off the luckless Stephen­ Jordan and past his own keeper."

    You MUST be­ @#$%ting me.
