Just about to leave. Read the pre-match on the BBC website. We've had no players sent off so far this season in the League. Reckon today's the day. Also Crouchy has scored in each of his last three games so that's him done for a while!
Feeling very down about this one as you can tell.
Come on Stoke, surprise me!

I haven't been this pessimistic about a Stoke game for a long, long time.

Normally would expect us to go there and beat them as they are pretty shite but we're devastated by injuries at the moment. I think a draw today and hopefully a few back for Hull next week

If the players coming back from injury can last 90 minutes then that is a decent starting eleven. Pace from Moses and Diouf and the workrate of Walters should give us a decent balance.
Gooaaarn you motherfucking amazing red and white Potters!

Dreading it to be honest. I've never know our squad to be so ravaged by injury. Just imagine in 10th place with a full squad what we might have achieved this season ![:-[](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/embarrassed.png) Amazing just how important a fit superjon is in our squad. He's our duracell bunny.

Fucking knew they's have Agbonlahor in. Lot of pace in that team. Gil will cause us problems and Agbonlahor will probably get one of ours sent off ![>:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/superangry.png)

That's a decent midfield and strike force for villa imo. They'll be playing with a lot of freedom I imagine.
We need to start quickly. If we score first it'll be interesting.
Think I'd prefer for Walters to play up top and Joof on the wing

Should be fun watching Sinclair and Agbonlahor running at Wollscheid ;D

Gil is a good player and will cause problems if he gets on the ball.
Considering our bad luck with injuries it isn't a bad side but our back 4 not great. Thankfully is Villa but am sure they will be looking at this as a day to actually score a goal.

Solid start. We look like we're controlling the midfield early on.

Can see that we are a better quality side. But we haven't got enough quality to play through Villa, we need to hit them on the break.
Diouf has been absolutely pony so far.

How the hell was that not a foul on Bardsley?! Sinclair has hauled him down, that's the only reason he was unmarked!

Sinclair fouled Bardsley there for me, bardsley still getting up when the cross came in
