I am a Banana 0 Posted May 14, 2011 Today they were in the FA cup final being 100% assured euro footy next season, by winning the cup they get euro footy anyway but because man city were already in europe next season stoke had to fill the english spot for some other comp. So (...assuming we were in the fa cup final...) would you like to play someone like Arsenal or Man Utd who were already in europe footy so we were 100% assured to get euro footy or...would you rather we played someone like Stoke or West Brom where we had to win to get euro footy, although the same should be easier???? I think I''d rather a Stoke / West Brom just so none of the top teams were in the final! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

grantroederdisaster 0 Posted May 14, 2011 Harry"]If we were in the FA Cup Final I wouldn''t care who we were playing]Yes exactly, just getting to the cup final would be amazing!Stokes recent rise from an average/struggling Championship club with unimpressive crowd figures to a regular top flight club with sell out crowds about to play in Europe next season shows just what can be achieved with the right atitude!I''d say that apart from the finances we''re a bigger club than Stoke and messrs Mcnally and Lambert seem to have the right atitude needed to survive in the Premiership!

Mello Yello 2,572 Posted May 14, 2011 I remember being at the Britannia Stadio a few years ago......when we under Grant''s tenure we were crushed 5-0....The stadio then, was less than 2 thirds full..... I''ll give Pulis and his team due.....They''ve come a long way since then.....and more than held their own in the Premiership.....Not by playing the most attractive football either.....But giving the big-clubs an occasional ''bloody nose''....
