Come on Stoke!

After a startling win on Saturday over early league leaders Luton Town we face Mansfield Town in the Carling Cup tonight (the old League Cup). Johan Boskamp, the new Stoke amanger, is very keen on cup competitions so much so he is fielding a near first team tonight when previously we would field reserves and youngsters. Be interesting to see how this works out.

Then on Saturday it is Crystal Palace away and hopefully I will go along and see the boys in action. Looking forward to seeing the new players like Kolar, Hoefkens & Big Mama in action.
