Might be a bit of a season definer. Three points here and onward; no points and not so good at all. That said our football (Saturday apart) hasn't been too shabby and lady luck might give us an odd break or two. Quietly hopeful.

Are tickets available on the door, does anyone know?

Might be able to tempt Dartisan (wh has been absent from these boards for a while it seems) to do a day trip if so.

Or even if not, if I get my organising head on.

Could be a good battle.

Seems my geography is pretty terrible - thought it was close to Birmingham.. and that I could easily get there. Not so much.

Still, if anyone is going from round the Bristol-ish area, let me know!

Not saying we're going to breeze it but don't see why we should have any fear on this one, they're good but have still lost 4 games at home, including to Fulham!

Our recent form has been quite poor, plus they're 3 points behind us with a game in hand. We've got plenty to fear especially if Holden's not back.

So let's make them six point behind us then they'll still be three even if they win their game in hand. :wink:

Pre-season prediction was a draw but we are going to have to improve on our recent performances if we are going to earn that. We seem to have lost or way in the "new" passing game after the two November awards and there was little to show any change in the cup game.

I never thought that we would be a one man team this season but we are really missing Holden and need him firing on all cylinders at Stoke. We also need Muamba and Elmander to get back to their best as well.

Can't see us keeping another clean sheet either so I'm going for a 2-2 draw at the best.
Depression is just a state of mind, supporting Bolton is also a state of mind hence supporting Bolton must be depressing QED

Can't see anything more than a draw here given our recent form :( .

My partner goes for Stoke after Kenwyn Jones moved from Sunderland, but the match is on at 2am so it doesn't look like she will watch it
