Stoke win again!

Blimey, two wins on the trot now! Debutant Kewyne Jones (on loan from Southampton) scored on his debut with a cross provided by fellow newboy Kevin Harper (signed recently from Portsmouth - one of Pullis' old clubs). A good result especially as three regular defenders were absent through injury and/or suspension.

Still no start for Thordur Gudjonsson - bizarrely signed by the chairman rather than the manager. It's to keep interest going in Stoke back in Iceland apparently. Hope he does get a run out as he has already scored twice in the reserves and did well in his time at Derby a few years ago.
