FT: STOKE CITY 1 - 2 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread

[B. Oddie]

Is there a team in the league more boring than Stoke City?

[surge]

A tale of two subs: Campbell went off for them and Glatzel came on and it was a completely different game.

I wouldn't question Stoke too much though: for the most of the game it looked like they had an extra man in every third of the pitch and would have strolled to victory if penalty had gone it - all with countless first teamers in the stands injured.

Looking at the table tonight, I know it's changing tomorrow, but we have beaten 13th in the league, 12th in the league, 3rd in the league and 6th in the league back-to-back-to-back.

Moore had less service tonight and was also outplayed. He looked knackered from early on but he kept going and Glatzell picked up the baton.

That's the Championship. I agree with the change of dynamic. Campbell is a Premier League talent and when Stoke lost his pace we slowly took over, Today wasn't Harry Wilson's game so he was not a great loss. Harris deserves credit for his tactical subs though maybe for the doubters he got lucky!

Coming back to this, our record against the current top 17 in the league is actually pretty good. We lost to Reading when they were absolutely flying and Bristol when deserved a point but, this early into our really difficult month at least, are unbeaten otherwise.

Our record against the current bottom 7 though is pretty awful though. We have played 5 of them and picked up 4 points only.
