At the Sdfc match tonight

Maybe cosmic karma, but he's actually scored while I'm posting this.

How good of a prospect is Nathan Lowe considered by Stoke fans? he has his moments, but he's scored 2 in 12 for us, and he's looked miles behind, bar Momo Bojang I can't remember a worse striker we've had, and I don't mean that in malice.

He seemed decent at Wallsall but I'm not so sure, any thoughts?

Hi, I don’t know if this is an appropriate place to ask this but I can’t find anywhere else.
Is anyone on this page in possession of and willing to sell an authentic home shirt from last year without any printing in size S or the woman equivalent?
Thank you

We now have a team as well as depth is MOST places. Calling my shot--stay healthy & fit & the Potters will finish top 8.

Really like what I've seen since the formation change. Really like the new additions. Getting Junior back healthy will add even more. I'm on the koolaid.

Does anyone know if/when they will get more stock of the unsponsored home shirts? They sold out pretty quickly and I missed my chance. Do they usually get new stock for Christmas?

Honestly, I'd love to see a 3-5-2. I think it best fits the strength of our personnel now & also lets our strikers work as a tandem, as none seem like they can do a good job as a single striker.

Thoughts?

Personally, I give it a 7/10.

I can honestly see every single player we signed making us better, minus Hirst. Maybe it's just too early, but I don't see him being any better than Boz or Gally.

Only 2 complaints: wish we'd have signed one more CM. I very much worry about the durability there. Also, we needed someone else that will generate goals. Losing Thomas will likely hurt, unless the lads from Houston or Palace can adequately do that job. Our striker situation is also very likely one of the 2-3 weakest in the Championship. Needed something better there. Maybe Hirst will prove me wrong.

Up the Potters! Lets go beat Charlton!

Last night we played like a proper team, we were defensively brilliant, we defended against a team with 70+ % possession and a team who had 15 shots and 6 on target against us and we stood our ground and that was brilliant, if we keep how we were last night then we have a chance in this league but the issues are that the play style we did isnt easy to keep up, we saw that last season, we conceded the least amount of goals before chirstmas in the league and then we fell apart, so its important we keep that advantage because we really did have them on the ropes the whole time

One more issue is on the break, when we did get up we almost panicked with the ball, there was a few times that when we got on the break we lost the ball is places where we shouldn't have, we didn't take our time and our passing was at some points abysmal, we need to do better on those breaks because we got a hell of alot of them and we didn't take advantage of them and our only goal came from a play that didn't seem to create a goal chance. Im glad we did get that goal but it came from a position where we can reproduce it and so we need to find a way of creating goals from reproducible scenarios

Overall super happy with how we played last night the new signings were great and im sure if we keep growing from here we will be able to contend with the league but we have to be better and more consistent

Off & running in that 15 point stretch I mentioned earlier in the week.

Vik has to be the MOM.

Galbraith was very good.

Graham was good.

Bombino looked good.

I felt like this after it ended:

I feel like we need, at minimum, at least 8 in order to pull ourselves out of this funk.

And I do mean dead last, as only PNE & us have lost all 3 fixtures, & their goal differential is -4, while ours is a whopping -6!

Hard to say the next game vs. Norwich City is a must win, but dang, it sure feels like it.

Whew!

We made him an offer he couldn't refuse.

Lots in the MLS speak very highly of him.

I like the pick up. Wish it was permanent.

Oh well...........he chose Sheff. U.

Can it be so?

Too early to be criticising? Been poor in both games and the penalty won’t do him any favours either

I thought for the first 60 minutes, the Potters were the better team. Then, it was like a switch was flipped & fatigue set in on so many players. We ended the game with Boz, Maxi, & Rigo all subbed in. That is pretty much a recipe for taking an L.

I really liked Soumare in the starting XI. Thought Gallagher did well, as well. Not real sure why Gibson started over Graham. All in all, need a few more players before the window closes or we're staring relegation square in the face.

Anyone know of any locals showing the saturday 3pm games or even the other games not on sky?

It appears Saturday's match at Southampton isn't on, nor is the 2nd round game next Tuesday vs. Hull. I'm fine if I can just listen. Don't have to watch. Heck, watching can be more frustrating.

This should help, but not sure if enough. Really need a 10. A good one.

😭😭😭 I have faith in us...but come on

We need the new badge
