Stoke City vs Newcastle United.
Toon travel to the land of the giants.
Good evening Geordies, and welcome to out regular “match banter” feature for the Magpies’ away trip to the Brittania Studium in Stoke.

This should be a tricky trip to the Potteries, with no quarter given and no prisoners taken. Indeed, Newcastle have yet to beat Stoke in the Premiership in four previous attempts, and if we beat them at the Britannia tonight, it will be for the first time in 26 years.

As usual, you can get the full SP in the run up to the game from Jimbob’s excellent and extensive match preview, and also my own companion piece about what the managers have been saying in the run up to the game. Of course, we shall also be doing a full match report after the game and also posting highlights of the game when they become available.

Unlike our previous League Cup match against Blackburn Rovers, there should be quite a few links for this one. As always, if you find any good ones, please feel free to post them in the comments section below.
