[Albion] FA Cup fifth round - who do you want?

[Mike Small]

Don't want to tempt fate but the better (us and Fulham) and bigger sides (Manc teams and Spurs) seem to have avoided each other. Think this is a much better draw than City or United away!

 

[Mackenzie]

Don't forget the wind. The way it whips in from that open corner next to our terrace. While the Delilah singers are comparatively warm and cosy.

Lovely stuff.

 

[Diallo]

ET then penalties

ET, phones home, then penalties.

 

[Bodian]

Not enough all PL ties. Could mean the rest of the tournament is just PL (and MASSIVE - who are de facto PL anyway).

 

[Guinness Boy]

Every single one! Who visits Stoke midweek in February

Football fans, travelling salesmen, people whose grannies live in Stoke, misery tourists, people who broke down on the M6, Andy Naylor and @Herr Tubthumper

I think they have filled in the corner now.

The Wednesday is the default/designated night for the next round. Could be moved though, for sure.

Bbc have it as Monday….even though Stoke are due to play the previous Saturday

 

[Grizz]

Back to the coldest stadium in the world it is then. Was f***ing frozen when I last went there in 2005 I think it was.

Tee-shirt and shorts it is then!

Those thinking of staying should consider a short drive , well 29 miles and spend the night in Burton. Great town

Once was enough.

Exactly what we did for the game when we scored the finest goal I have seen us score. Bloody excellent night. Some amazing pubs and a very decent curry (where you could bring pints in from the pub next door).

Might do that again.

Well I’m going. Site of the best goal I’ve seen us score live. Big coat night though.

i only noticed this “mention” from reading the thread; is there somewhere on the site where posters get notified? I would have thought it would be in the bell icon? But nothing in there. Just curious

Hmmm.

It should be the bell icon. I just checked my user preferences and I have them set to be notified of a mention, yet I never have been (but always quotes and likes).

Might be a Xenforo bug. Will ask the boss.

The only team I have seen play Stoke at the Britannia is..... Lewes.

I just checked my preferences and I have notifications set but have never had an alert either.

Burton = lovely

A bit closer is Leek

Leek = shit hole

I'm only rating the towns by nice evenings out/stitches needed.

B.U.T. Scores infinity.
Leek Scores 0.125.

From Stoke City fan forum ... thinly disguised homophobia? Or am I reading to much into it??

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Would be quite nice to swerve Man City all the way to the final. Nobody else we really need to fear
