Stoke City may be a small club, but that never seems to faze them when they walk out in front of
the crowd at The Britannia. Saturday was no different.
Chelsea was visiting, and they brought their undefeated record with them, too. Stoke was ready
for a battle, though. It's pretty hard to describe how different Stoke is as a team when they are
playing at home.
After the Hull game back in August I wrote a brief post questioning why it takes so long to
queue to get through the turnstiles at Stamford Bridge. That day it took me half an hour to get
from the Britannia Gate to my seat, and I missed the first 12 minutes of the Spurs game on Sunday
despite joining the one of the queues into the Matthew Harding Lower at 3.

It was a bad week for West Ham. In the wake of the Battle at Boleyn, the English Football
Association had decided to charge West Ham with four offences and the club has 14 days to respond
to these charges. Hopefully the punishment will be justified rather than just an publicity attempt
by the FA chairman to set an example.
