I'm not sure if McGee on the line is a good sign or the fact that there are two scousers running the line is a bad sign?

VIRGO BANNED FOR POTTERS TRIP

Goalkeeper Rami Shaaban should make his first appearance as a contracted Brighton player at Stoke.

The former Arsenal goalkeeper has signed until the end of the season after impressing in two first-team matches while with the club on a non-contract basis.

Adam Virgo serves the final game of a two-match ban, so manager Mark McGhee is again likely to pair the recovering Chris McPhee with Mark McCammon, if he shakes off a back injury, in attack.



Stoke's Championship manager of the month Tony Pulis is boosted by the return of defender Michael Duberry .

Duberry, who played 15 times for the Potters between October and early January, completed a free transfer move to the Britannia Stadium from Leeds earlier this week.

The former Chelsea centre-back could go straight into the starting line-up as Gerry Taggart is struggling to shake off the effects of flu.

Fellow centre-half Wayne Thomas is also suffering from the groin strain which has left him sidelined for the past month.

Defender John Halls (back) and midfielder John Eustace (bruised knee) are also out, while Michael Ricketts is pushing for a starting berth ahead of Kenwyne Jones in attack.

Official Stoke thread

Any team news yet, especially fitness of Mark Mc Cammon

Only Perseus is allowed to start Official threads, apparently.

Don't confuse Dave The Gaffer.

McCammon just scored a hattrick for me in FM if that is any help!

But you didn't say who the officials are.

I don't understand

Surely there cannot be two official threads

Brain aches

Stoke are not memorable opponents

Luckily I chose to miss the 1-4 home defeat in 1990.

A few 20,000 plus crowds in the late seventies.

The other thread was started earlier, does that make it the real one or some upstart wannabee...

 

[Uncle C]

Didn't see the other earlier posting. Perseus is obviously much more important so would suggest no-one posts here as its an inferior thread.

 

[Wozza]

Perseus is a ****. This is the official thread.

 

[Bluejuice]

Official enough for me.

So, line-ups then...?

 

[Uncle C]

Perseus is a ****. This is the official thread.
