With Stoke's style of play, Twickenham would be a suitable venue.
They will have a problem with their throws in the line out!

Ged was right about Man City, presently threatening to take mighty Reading to a replay. Maybe it was Reading he was worried about?

It is an absolute disgrace that the LOSERS of the FA Cup final get a place in Europe having  won just 5 games to get there instead of the team who have, over 38 Premier League matches against Premier League teams, proven to be the 6th best side in the league.

Stoke may be in Europe after winning the following fixtures:

Cardiff City H  (Which they drew and needed a replay)

Wolves A

Brighton H

West Ham H

Bolton (Wembley)

Now, does winning that little lot deserve to represent England in Europe?  Does it bol"£$KS!

When Millwall lost to the mancs a few years ago i'm sure they reached the final without playing a top flight club. They got twatted by the only top flight side they met in the FAC and yet were in Europe the next season, which struck me as crazy. But thems the rules.

Lets not speak of the FA Cup decision again.

Every time I think of it a solitary tear runs down my cheek.

Is it any surprise our manager (and a number of our own fans) felt we had no chance.

Recently the new greatest team in Europe have

Drawn at home to Fulham
Strolled to victory against our interesting 11
Held on for grim life to beat Wigan 1-0 at home
Lost 2-0 in Kiev
Struggling to beat Reading at home.

It's no wonder we were scared of them given the run they are on.

No, I am trapped on the cover of a `Marillion' album.

Houiller's line up against Man City is one thing i don't think i'll ever be able to get my head round. Even though it should'nt, it will probably annoy me for a very long time.
