This was always going to be tough, Stoke are always a hard team to beat, but beat them we did, and when Luis scored that fabulous goal, I thought we'd be in for a treat, unfortunately they equalised which made the second half a bit of a nail biter, although we were the better team and deserved the win in the end, glad to see Downing get on the score sheet.
Some of the decisions from the Ref/Linesman were diabolical today and I though at one point that Suarez was going to headbutt the Ref (tw*t) as yet another decision went against him
The atmosphere on the Kop was very good today and was pretty much non stop singing throughout the whole game, mind you we were in block 306
Was a bit of trouble after the game just down from the Arkles as both sets of supporters decided it would be fun to have a good punch up, lots of fists/kicking flying about, when the bizzies decided to get stuck in, it was a bit like 'Charge of the Light Brigade' as they marched on horseback to break the fighting up - poor losers them Stoke fans
Took bloody ages to get to the M6 though with 7 thousand Stoke fans all going exactly the same way
Happy with the result, wasn't the best game, but sometimes you have to play ugly and still win, today was one of those days.
Wembley beckons again........this time I won't be missing out
