It’s one of many questions on every Stoke fans lips when they see the starting 11 prepared by Mr Pulis for match day, it’s up there with are we playing Woodgate at RB again?  Is Pennant warming the bench whilst Shotton plays RW?  This question however, for me is the one I think that’s being [...]

Tonight will see the Mighty Magpies face Blackburn Rovers for the 4th time this season – 2 wins and 1 defeat the record. Back in September, you will probably remember the ever-impressing Demba Ba bagging his first hat trick for the club in the 3-1 home win against Rovers in the Premier League, a game [...]

Last year the Wolves Vs Liverpool fixture saw Fernando Torres score his last goals in a Liverpool shirt. Little did he know that he’d score more for Liverpool FC in 2011 (in just a few appearances) than he did for Chelsea in the same year. Wolves lost this home game last year 0-3 and currently [...]

At the start of January, when Landon Donovan returned to Everton once again, supporters envisaged the American rousing a stale dressing room and galvanising performances on the pitch. Judging by results alone, this has not yet happened. His stay has only coincided with two points from a possible 12 in the league, and his only [...]

Three games into the Mark Hughes era at Queens Park Rangers and life at Loftus Road seems far more cheerful. Extortionate ticket prices for the FA Cup, disappointing tweets from our ‘leader’ aimed at the man who got us back into the Premier League and little transfer activity aside, QPR have clawed themselves back out [...]
