lanky316 Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 and league one? and the Championship? and the undefeated run against Premiership sides? It's called being the hardest working team in English football. Case in point yesterday, you hold a team who're looking at the title and you're slagging off your performance? That's what's done it more than anything. Add in a reliable striker and that team will be up there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 I don't think you can understate Stevenage's success due to the gap between L2 and the Conference. For one they're in the League One play-offs. Two, the difference between League One and the Conference is huge, especially the top end of L1. Stevenage have done an absolutely fantastic job, as did Yeovil to get where they did. Exeter didn't drop into the Conference for too long, and whilst the gap between League 2/Conference isn't a great deal, doesn't make it easy to get through it in your first ever year there. Few teams have done that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Lineker Posted February 21, 2012 Admin Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Stoke have had the red card shown to Rory Delap in Sunday's win over Crawley overturned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colly Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Looking at that and the Huth tackle I presume the appeal system is now decided on a coin toss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDK Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 I don't think Stoke would have missed Delap and just played their new French midfielder, Trebuchet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Lineker Posted March 2, 2012 Admin Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 Stoke City will subsidise their supporters for the televised FA Cup quarter-final at Anfield this month. The Potters have waived their right to 45% of the away ticket sales so they can offer tickets to fans at £20 - up to 6,000 fans could travel to Anfield. Club officials made the move after deciding the £35 ticket price set by Liverpool would "put people off". "We are aware of the difference that backing can make to our hopes," said Stoke chief executive Tony Scholes. "Our players will get a tremendous lift when they see the entire lower tier of the Anfield Road Stand filled with 6,000 fans, helping to create a great atmosphere." This is the third year in succession City have reached the last eight of the competition, and the club is hoping fans can give them the boost to repeat last year's appearance in the final. "[The offer] helps our fans and, in turn, we know they will help the team by giving them fantastic support," Scholes told City's website. "It would be wonderful to think we could get back to Wembley again and we believe this offer is a cost worth bearing to give us every chance of achieving that aim."

lanky316 Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 (edited) There goes the Stevenage clean sheet record Great finish by Defoe on the break, if only Ashton had put in that header though! Tottenham looking good but Stevenage had some good chances today and could have got more on another day. Great game and can be proud of both sides.

Adam Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 (edited) Since Lineker is I assume still searching for the right thread to post in, the game is underway at Goodison. Really willing on an Everton win today, wins for Liverpool, Leicester and Bolton would be great too but I'm not holding out too much hope of that happening . I'll have to listen to the second half of this on the radio since I need to be at Doncaster vs Derby, shame this couldn't be the evening game! EDIT: Fuck me that's a good goal. They deserve it after this start too. Edited March 17, 2012 by AdamDRFC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 Get the fuck in Tim, only his second goal of the season and I saw the first live. This needs to be the catalyst for Everton to start playing some better football now. They need to keep hold of the ball better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
