Stoke Are No Slouches

It's our fourth if you count the Sunderland game.

I wouldn't, it was part of the weekend fixtures.

But I somehow missed Birmingham anyway.

Still, 4 true midweek home league matches (including tonight and Hull next month) all season seems like less than normal.

I generally think the home teams get an advantage of midweek night matches - better atmosphere. Zero stats to back that up, though always liked night games & midweek..

That's interesting and I think I'll do some analysis. The away crowd is generally smaller. Travel shouldn't be much of an issue with these new fangled aeroplanes, but I think you might have a point.

In any event we will trounce Stoke tonight, even though it is a cold Tuesday night.

Best team to put us under pressure at thevriverside in a while. Can see themngetting 2nd if we dont up our game.

Good team, it's easy to see how they got five against Sunderland
