That's what happens when you have a winning team, when you have a losing team you don't care so much.

Exactly the team I expected. Hoping we don't struggle too much in the middle of the park.

Torp has a key role doesn’t he?

Still not a fan of this two man midfield but 4-3-3 didn’t really work on Tuesday either. They’re quite a counter attacking team so fear us getting done on the break today without much resistance in midfield.

Yeah. Was thinking the same thing.

Hopefully four for the team in Sunderland style stripes.

Two in the middle seems like the way to shoehorn both EMC and BTA in

It's not really shoehorning if it's been largely working. If Rudoni comes back and they still do it, you could could call it shoehorning but I'd imagine he'll come straight back in.

Only term I could think of. I’d rather ‘shoehorn’ them in than have Eccles or Allen come in and go with a 3.

A fit Eccles adds more strength in the midfield

These are the games under Robins you’d be quietly confident of a performance. I think they’ll be up for it.

Suppose he’ll be introduced depending on how it’s going.

Funny but simply not true.

I lived and worked in The Potteries for nearly 20 years until 2023 and it was my experience that Stokies are just ordinary people with the same hopes aspirations faults and stupidity as any other folk up and down the country.

This ridiculous endless comparison that the 'City' of Stoke on Trent made up of six towns (seven, if you listen to some) is the biggest shithole on the planet worse than dear old Cov could ever be is absolute nonsense, like most towns and cities it's no worse no better, believe me I live near Leicester now and boy this place takes the biscuit.i

EDIT, I absolutely refute the notion that the natives are unfriendly and glare at you if you so much as look at them
That's utter utter bollocks.

Cost kick a bo againt a wo an' then 'it it wi' thi yed till it bosses?

Hm.
It seems there are divergent opinions as to whether those who live in Stoke are Neanderthals or if that position is "absolute nonsense".

Now I'm confused and back to square one.

Simms on in 2nd half.
Let him have a repeat hat trick against that Johannson fellow.

I can only speak as I found.

Don't take my word for it, go spend some time up there and find out for yourself.

Nervous today.
Bit worried about the two man midfield.
Hopefully BTA doesn't find himself dropping deep and giving the ball away.
Feel we may give them a fair few chances today.

Whoever is sharpest in front of goal wins this for me.

Don't think it will be a draw.
