    Yes I was thinking we might need to change tactics, probably one or two players as well

    Good question CAM but as Stoke seem to play the same way whoever they have played away this season I cannot see them changing and if that is the case then it would be stupid to stay with the 352 because it would cause them no threat and put us at a huge disadvantage. IMHO our best chance of the 3 points is to play on the counter and stil have a good few defenders to cope with their pack hunting system. 4132 would be my choice.

    Two good things about the Stoke match tomorrow are they have a Friday night fixture against Watford but we have a blank weekend so we can give it a good go and have a week to recharge.

    Big congrats to #rufc boss Paul Warne, the manager who never wanted to be a manager. Tomorrow’s home clash with Stoke City is his 200th game in charge.

    Happy birthday to Barlaser today as well

    Get them points lads

    Great milestone for the bloke.

    I'm thinking Paul Davis could make it an extra special evening for Warney and do something that is sure to guarantee us the win.

    Could he pass on BigladonOS contact details so he can help Paul with our team selection against Stoke. Warney would surely be chuffed to bits and could benefit from the blokes extensive knowledge of the game.

    What a fantastic gesture that would be.

    Come on Paul Davis. Make it happen.

    Stoke were the most physical side we played against and bullied us a bit, but they are hot and cold

    Another winnable game

    3 having treatment although all three should be available for Tuesday night. Depending on injuries and the recovery rate of Richard Wood I would go with the same starting eleven. If I did make one change it would be Freddie Ladapo and put Crooks on the bench for a rest but I don't think PW will do that.
    Get Ben Wiles to rough Jordan Thompson up a little. Thompson is a decent player and puts some quality crosses and free kicks in for the likes of Fletcher.
    No need to nullify them all over the pitch, just play our own game. I hope it's a better game than we had down there when we lost 1-0 and created nothing. We owe them one.
