The time has come to take control of our season. Reading have been good at home - W3 D1 L1 but there's no doubting we have the quality to beat them.
I'm still on a high after Tuesday. I've been smiling all week. It was a real throw back and reminded me why I fell in love with Stoke and football in general. Peters, Clucas, Saido, Ince all running their cocks off for the cause and still had belief we could win even with 10 men. Shawcross and Williams were both immense (!).
Over 2000 Stoke fans there today which is great to see. Rowett, in my opinion, hasn't been given a fair chance by many supporters. They're eager to shoot him down as soon as something doesn't go our way. The same way in which some goblins next door were suggesting Berahino "should never play for us again" after he gave away the free kick which Wilson scored, before Saido set up the winner. I really hope we get the win today and the fans fully unite behind the boys for the rest of the season. We're not out of it by a long stretch.
Up the fucking Potters.

Would be massive to get a win today. Hope the players have recovered from their midweek efforts. Playing for an hour with only ten men would have taken a lot out of the players legs.
Goarrn Stoke....

Saido ran his socks off. I can see why he's been rested.
I'm glad to see Clucas in there. He's known to be physically very fit so hopefully he isn't too fatigued.
Those 2 changes were to be expected. I'm surprised to see Williams dropped after his best game for us but maybe 3 games in a week is too much for him.
Come on Stoke!

1-1, Afobe.
As per, Afobe "should never play for us again" was the consensus at HT...

And in injury time they grab an equaliser

That's a bit if a kick in the balls. 94th minute equaliser.
Normally a draw away from home is a good result but that is a bit wank.

Despite the result... maybe we have turned a corner and things are looking up. I hope so.

Watched the highlights earlier. Looks as though we played well and had enough chances to score 4 or 5 goals.
Annoying but encouraging... roll on the next game.
