Stokie I'm afraid...... Really looking forward to my first trip to Chelsea. Its a bit of a weird time at Stoke at the moment. After the game with The Arse at the weekend it ended a run of games that saw us unbeaten in the league in 2010. It was marred not only by the lose but the unfortunate injury to Aaron Ramsey. It also was a a v proud time to have a Stoke player called up to play for England on the same day he broke another players leg. Shawcross is a great footballer, a lovley lad and true footballing great in the making, and after the many years that I have followed my team a very proud moment for many a Stoke fan. Anyway..........we are in the quarter final of the ruddy FA Cup!!!! I know it must seem like second nature now to you guys, but for us to see the 3rd round is still a bonus! The team on Saturday looked shattered after the Man City replay that went to extra time and our squad is not really strong enough to field a couple of teams so the majority of players played most of the 2 matches.....and it showed. We will be well up for it and I'm sure we will fill your ground with non stop support for our team. Its a shame we only took the 3000 allocation and not the 6000 as we all belive that that was a mistake by the club. The 3000 were sold out within hours of going on general sale, with many a Stokie feeling a aggreaved not to be going.........I'm sure we will still generate a good amount of noise to Bridge. I just hope we will give you a good game on Sunday and I know most of you want to concentrate on the league so if you can have a word with your manager and players before the match to let us win ........that would be great!! Have a good one.
