So Stoke today and in keeping with the Rugby I really hope Ramsey comes through this match with pride and a goal! It will be the first time he has faced them since his horrendous leg break but I hope this does not play on his mind today! I am sure there will be strains of "Swing low" from the Potters today but I hope we kick them back up North, not literately, and they take their long throws with them!
Funny though as Wenger is backing Pulis in the refs v tackles issue and say he agrees that refs should allow more. I agree too but lets make sure they are fair eh?
Theo also states today that fans should put the start of the season behind us as the players have, the season is re-ignited he says and team morale is the best it has ever been. I hope he is right as the Spuds and the Mancs still way heavy on my mind and scousers too.
I want to see a real team performance and hopefully with some passion and skill from Theo which has been really lacking of late. Also lets hope we see the Ox and Park making more of an impact.
So recent games for both teams look like this.
Arsenal LWLWLW 9PTS
Stoke WWDLDLW 10PTS
On paper it looks like Stoke have the edge but we are not playing on paper are we.

So Stoke history:
Founded in 1863, Stoke City have the distinction of being the oldest football club currently plying their trade in the English Premier League. Nicknamed The Potters in reference to Stoke’s famous potteries, they were a force to be reckoned with in Europe during the mid 1970s. Since their promotion to the Premier League, Stoke have developed a reputation for being tough to break down at home and they are credited with bringing the long-throw back in vogue, and since 2008 ( if I'm correct ) Arsenal and Stoke games have been rather hectic. Games played: 93 Arsenal won 49, lost 23 and drew 21.
So big game for the Gunners, Good luck we're always behind you !
We are all the way. No televised game today as we are being over ran by mancs and Chealski but enjoy if you are there today.
