Cov v Stoke (5 Viewers)

[Ricketts]

Maybe Dasilva can play a left midfield/free Rudoni role? Or Jamie Allen? Are Stoke still big thugs?
We are really going to miss him.

Yes we did. Didn't say we didn't. Hiw about listing the seasons we didn't play in the Ricoh and how we did considering most of us abstained from going to 'home' games?

Never change mate

Has something been confirmed then?

 

[Mcbean]

I don’t think we have really trashed any body yet - it’s got to be coming - we could do with 4 or 5 nil for the goal difference - could it be Stoke are the victim ?

Da Silva to replace Rudoni in his role? I've heard it all now

 

[Skyblueweeman]

Family zone open from 11am on the back of my earlier post, in case anyone else needed to know.

Bidwell/DaSilva will get targeted. Robins will know our weaknesses.

He can be difficult to play against in these types of games. It's not going to be easy.

We won a league title playing away from Coventry.

 

[Briles]

Robins will get a great welcome. His chance of being a premier league manager has probably gone but he still has to work for a living. Stokes a basket case of a club so he will probably do well eventually like he did when we were, he thrives on a backs to the wall type job. I for one will give him a clap regardless of result (won't be doing it before or during the game though)

Hopefully no one sings your getting sacked in the morning as per Rooney and Eric Ten Hag.

Genuinely, this is what I'm hoping happens.

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

Ticket sales are good, they've released some more in block 2 and and block 26 which are all nearly sold

The Stoke fans might if it goes well.

30,000 crowd then? Woo hoo.

Torp is "on the grass" in the most recent Unseen video, did Lampard say why he wasn't in the squad?

Just said not quite ready for Oxford and would be fine this week. Expect him to start on bench, Allen to start for me.

 

[fernandopartridge]

Just having a look on the Stoke forum and there is a thread where Michael Rose is being cast as one of their worst ever players

Yeah just watch unseen and Torp was in full training post Preston and pre Oxford.

Think he's got a good chance of starting personally. Lampard likes him.

Da Silva any good at timing runs into the box with flying headers

I think it’ll be Sheaf grimes Torp

 

[Captain Dart]

He won't start 2 players that might not be match fit in the lineup.

Sheaf played about 50 minutes Saturday

I think that’ll be the midfield

Dasilva should do nothing but make the tea.
There's literally no position he fills effectively.

Torp should be available, and has to be in contention to replace Rudoni should he be ruled out.

 

[edgy]

Would Allen be any more "match fit" than Sheaf?

Sheaf played more minutes on Saturday than Allen has played in the last month.

Not my call bud it's FL's but I think my point stands.

I appreciate that. Just discussing it. My point being Allen won't be anymore 'match fit' than Sheaf.

 

[fernandopartridge]

Sheaf played more minutes on Saturday than Allen has played in the last month.

Allen did start six consecutive matches before then though.

 

[shmmeee]

What’s this new thing that players take weeks and weeks to get match fit? If someone’s been out for half a season fair enough but not for every injury!

Lampard won't be in the squad because he's too old now

You intend to give Robins the clap?

A classic from Dame Edna Everage: "Let's give him the clap he so richly deserves!"

 

[DazzleTommyDazzle]

Ticket sales looking good with more than a week to go. Heading for a full house?

Full house (at least the home end) looking pretty well nailed on now.

Time for a chorus of "Our ground's too small for us..."?

That is a wild accusation given some of the shit they've signed in recent years.

Their record ever signing Giannelli Imbula played 28 times for them. He once subbed himself off because someone didn't pass him the ball during a pre-season game.

I doubt Michael Rose is in the top 50 of their worst ever signings.

 

[CV22SBA]

I reckon so. I would imagine they open block 4 tomorrow and the sections in front of blocks B&E.
As Stoke have block 6 no chance they open block 5. Looks like Stoke only have limited number of tickets left too.
