Stoke City at home match-day thread

HNM on for Williams 

[Selred]

I have such a toxic relationship with Williams. Some times I watch him and think he’s one of the best midfielders we’ve had in ages, and then equally he plays some horrendously sloppy passes and is our biggest liability.

[GlastonburyRed]

I think we have a bit of an inferiority complex/paranoia when it comes to pundits, I’m sure they don’t all hate us!!!

[Ska Junkie]

I thought, from the very few reserve games I've seen, that Benayous was a bit lightweight for Championship football but the boy is doing alright isn't he?

Doesn’t hitting the woodwork count as a shot on target?

(this is an age old OTIB joke!)

I've forgotten his name (begins with an F?), but was he the Liverpool fan?

Jordan Tansley?

[ExiledAjax]

Crazy young midfield now. Big test.

[Super]

Already heading for lots of injury time.

[Fordy62]

Don’t mention the fact the Stoke players is a cheating ***.

Freddie Sears? That hit the Woodwork, honest ref.

He’s been very impressive so far in my view,   Only concern for me is how many injuries he  picks up - hopefully taken off as a precaution tonight, think he’ll be a star if we can get him on the pitch consistently

I don't think Jobi McAnuff has been too hard on us in the past. 

[MelksRed]

This injury is only there to break our flow 

[underhanded]

We're putting it about a bit tonight mind

[LondonBristolian]

Bit worried about Jacob Brown being off the pitch for an extended period, given the last time we faced ten men...

[GlastonburyRed]

Bit worried about the lack of an older/experienced head in the middle of the park now JW has gone off.

[mozo]

Suddenly our closing down looks a bit sluggish, as it tend to do on 65 minutes onwards...

[Super]

Scott lucky there

Im more worried about the injury time issue

[Ska Junkie]

Good tackle that, not even a free kick.

Maybe not.

[Engvall’s Splinter]

Got away with that did Scott. 

[Globe Trotter]

Love the commitment from Scott there but lucky not to be off I reckon 

[GlastonburyRed]

COD looks ok at LWB not sure about Scott at RWB, particularly defensively.

[Andy082005]

Dreadful tackle from Scott 

[luke_bristol]

lucky boy....

[GlastonburyRed]

Orange card for me. 

[Jim Davey]

Bring on Semenyo please Nige

Sounds like Benarous is maybe getting a tad hot headed. Maybe Semenyo on for him?

Or Scott.
