1-1 draw

Can really see Robins getting something out of this game.

I think Stoke will be fired up and MR obviously knows us inside out.

You can only polish a turd a certain amount. But at the end of the day it's still a turd.

They have injury problems. Even if some come back for this game they won't be ready for the intensity needed. We have won every league game for two months now other than against Leeds.

Robins knowing our players may be true. But he won't know who is playing, the formation we use and if anything will be worried about players like Wright and EMC.

All sides now know about our aerial threat. But stopping it is another matter.

True. But we are also far from the finished article, aren't we. Still have frailties.

We obviously won't keep winning every game. We are not that good, unfortunately, so there will be some dropped points

As it's Robins, I think this will end up as a draw.

Sticking with 1-1

Been on their forum (and Middlesboro's is similar) but they don't seem to have (allow?) posts like this. The Mackem's forum is similar to ours in terms of 'insults' / language. Assume it's down to our admin/moderators? Not grumbling, just an observation.

I’m fairly confident it’ll be this. Maybe Eccles instead of Sheaf.

Didn't they boo and still boo Aaron Ramsey after he'd had his leg broken by one of their thugs?

Eccles had a pretty rough game v Oxford so can definitely see Sheaf returning to the starting 11.

Allen is a bit more suited to AM than Eccles imo.

I’d like to see Torp back in the frame. Rudoni will be a big miss with his desire to get forward and create. I’m a bit concerned his absence will leave our midfield too ponderous and prone to slowly passing sideways and backwards. We need to get all over Stoke or they will get the point they are no doubt coming for .

Stoke fans on their forum seem as lethargic as their team's current form. About 50 posts on their match thread. For some reason we have two threads and the unofficial one currently has 426 posts alone.

If Torp is fit he undoubtedly comes in for Grimes. Sheaf Eccles Torp for me.

Agree - but their forum is generally 'reasonable' in terms of 'spats' and 'insults'. They tend to talk more about the actual footie (albeit at the moment they are unhappy, so it will be worse than usual)

Dont think so. Couple of hundred short I think. For some reason the top part of Block 9 doesn't appear to have been available to them.

Maybe that's where the tifo will be unfurled.

Hopefully Torp will step in for Rudoni.

We'll win this, no problem.
