Mid Sussex Royal Have Stoke ever been involved in a game that could remotely be classed as entertaining?

Doesn't help that QPR aren't dishing up entertainment either.

Millwall holding on to that 1-0 would be a massive help

Wycombe putting up a good fight against Bournemouth, but now down to ten men.

Completely irrelevant point, but has there been a change of commercial ruling about which kit the away side can/should wear? There’s no reason why Brentford can’t wear their home shirt against Watford; why then are they in an away shirt?

Championship officials really are the pits, Watford goal clearly onside ruled out. a draw is good for us though.

Because they're playing away?

I fear a thrashing on Saturday. Brentford deserve promotion TBF, There player recruitment is off the charts they just keep pulling rabbits out the hat.

Getting quite tired of seeing officials do their utmost to level their decisions out

Very much a cliche but two wrongs don’t make a right
Just because you give a questionable red card to Brentford doesn’t then mean you have to give them every decision after

Lot of calls to abolish VAR, it’s not going to happen if the officials are this poor without it, albeit at a lower level

Brentford have won 3 home games out of 9 so far this season

Including a 2-0 home win to Coventry (18th), a 2-1 home win against 10 man QPR (19th) and a more resounding 3-0 win over Huddersfield (15th)

Shouldn’t be going into that game with a defeatist attitude

Nobody deserves promotion in December, what an odd comment. :|

Am I the only person who thinks their new stadium looks a fcuking mess? Its like they nicked 4 stands from 4 different grounds and bolted them together.

As a neutral I hate VAR, but you can’t help but think it necessary when the decisions go against you.

If they ever "deserved promotion" it was last year, though they managed to bottle it right at the last. This year they don't look quite as dominant but I think they'll reach the playoffs again. They have a knack of finding incredible strikers.

They have scouted well, but Toney and Mbeumo both cost a fair bit. That Forss lad has basically come through their version of their academy

It’s used to be that you could wear your home colours if there was no kit clash
