Good. Sick of some fans going in every year expecting to win and having a meltdown. Play properly today and the football will do the talking

£40 tickets less than two weeks before Christmas, on a cold Monday night when most people could pay a relatively cheap amount to see it on sky or pretty much go to any pub in the area. 30,000 is a great gate all this considered, you'll just have to sing up for the other 3000 seats mate 😉

You're probably right, God help us all 😂 literally anywhere but the North stand, beggers can't be choosers though 🙏

Any chance we know where in the stadium the tickets are for? Trying to work out whether it's easier for to park or go on the train

Feel like the focus on Mount has shifted, all to good effect. Noticed against Swansea how often he was pulling all the strings while Wilson did the goalscoring. The Wilson/Mount combination seems a really useful pair this year

24 seconds

Think Waghorn would be ideal for this game, especially as Lawrence won't be afforded the time or space to really make an impact. Nugent to keep his place and use Marriott as a super sub. Can't see anything changing though, Lampard will play the same team and change it on 70 minutes if needed. Reckon 1-1 until 70 minutes and one of Holmes/'Zoon or Marriott to score a late winner

Only 30 tickets left according to the website, not released for general sale until the 5th yet either.

Step up Swansea, @David has set you up for the win perfectly 😂

What an absolute load of rubbish, FA seems to make it up as they go along to be honest. If both players and managers come out and say there was no bite then why bother?

Going out on a limb here, I think we'll see some youngsters thrown in tomorrow. Macdonald for Malone with Bird and Sibley for the bench.

Unless it's only bruising this might be the end of Davies in a Derby shirt unfortunately. A simple tear/rupture is still an operation and several months out, anything more severe could be a career ending injury.

I'm not quite sure how any Stoke fan can say a thing about the ref over the red card incident. Sure give it a bit about the win, Derby just weren't at the races yesterday, but that was the most blatant red I've ever seen. I'd say the Derby players had every right to go over to the ref when he was trying to play on. The melee only started when Joe Allen thought he'd give it some. If Stoke wanted Johnson to walk then Joe Allen should have too.

If he'd come for less than 10k per week (not unrealistic going by reports) he'd be useful to have as a back up / mentor. We've seen the impact older heads have on younger players (Nugent training Marriott up for example) and potentially he'd really help push the inexperienced players.

Building on the Lampard point, even being a youngish lad (22) I still watched Frank in his prime. Still remember his goal that wasn't a goal against Germany and its weird to now see his come full circle into management, he's not even that young of a manager compared to some these days.
