Just been down to get tickets, about 12600 sold so far.

Dave boddy was lurking about as well.

Was getting quite busy.

Most fans buying on the day will go for the gate option.

You'd like to think there will be 1000+ doing so.

Hopefully there will be a couple if extra turnstiles open for pay on the gate.

No injuries today - and I'm happy - anything else a bonus (no replay, though)

Let’s hope the Ricoh have catered for the increase in attendance, both in terms of turnstiles and catering stations/staff.

Also, guaranteed there will be some idiots sat in our seats, always happens when the glory supporters turn up :emoji_fishing_pole_and_fish:

Agree, obviously I'd love us to win but it's obvious why it is being hopeful. I'd be happy with no major injuries, for example if Doyle gets injured today that means Stevenson and Bayliss in centre mid for the league until Kelly is back.

I sat in somebodies seat the other week, I just fancied a change. In about 15 rows I picked the seat somebody had a ST on, I moved the row behind and no issue at all. We won against Wycombe so might try and sit there today.

Disgraceful!

You posted before I’d edited my post to include the :emoji_fishing_pole_and_fish: emoji. I was looking for a fire one but couldn’t find it.

If it works - do it!

Where have all the Stoke fans gathered pre game?

There’s a mini bus load in the pub I go to pre game.

Wouldn’t be surprised if there’s a bit of trouble around the shopping park etc today, especially if we win.

McDonald is in the family zone, so will likely be Davies and Willis at the back.

Would think Davies would deal with Crouch better if he plays.

O'Brien and Maguire Drew in, Burge dropped to the bench.


Looking forward to see if the new lad has anything about him.

Yes, or just giving another player game time and a chance to keep Burge motivated and not think he is an automatic choice.

It's a pretty weak bench. One of the worst this season I think.

Burge is an interesting call. Dropped or rested?

Maybe Burge on the bench because Robins knows O'Brien is better at collecting crosses

Can't see it being Burge dropped, think it's just giving O'Brien some game time

They have put out a reasonably strong side...but pitch may suit us. As long as we come out of this without more injuries and with some pride I will be happy. A win and I will be ecstatic.

As much as they're not an exciting draw that team is full of internationals

That’s a shame - I was hoping for Crouch, as we can deal with long/high balls.

I’m more worried about pacey strikers/wingers.
