Good preview Chico. Showed it to one of the Stoke mob who I work with and he was very appreciative. Stayed behind after work to read it - so you should be proud you delayed his Missus getting a beating by a good ten mins or so. You sir, are a saint!

Love Stoke City. They wind everyone up and bring a working mans game back from the clutches of the frutiy middle classes who love Tiki Taka and hate tackling.

DRAW.

Good football was never the preserve of the fruity middle classes. You insult many a great team by suggesting so.

Though I don't disagree that tackling is sorely missed, the best approach is a mixing of the two - hard tackling and great football.
 
Top preview as usual.

Two tough away games against Stoke then West Ham, at a time when so many teams are close, we could do with a win. Bit worried about these fixtures - ease my concerns EFC!

Everyone wants a "style" now, and playing tiki taka ****ty shatta seems to be what everyone wants to be proud of.

Stoke says balls to that. Come here and get kicked and the shirt ragged off ya back. Love it.

Don't get why. It's hideous and even more boring to watch than tiki taka, which I'm no huge fan of, at its worst.

The 1st year you are up and arguably the 2nd year, I think teams should do whatever is necessary to stay up. However Stoke has been up for a while now, has an owner who spends money and yet they seem to be getting more dire. Fat Sam's Bolton teams always mixed in a bit of football into their physical play, and I liked watching them every now and then. Stoke hasn't.
