Stoke could do with a season that actually sticks

Unfortunately, there's been a hell of a lot of “nearly” around Stoke for a while. A decent run here, a good performance there, then it all seems to drift away again. Potters fans have probably had enough of waiting for something to properly catch fire.

It doesn’t need to be some mad promotion charge either. Give them a side they enjoy watching, a couple of proper statement wins and a few Saturdays where everyone’s still talking about it on the way home.

That’s really the thing with Stoke this year. Fans don’t need another season that disappears into the pile. Give them something with a bit of life about it and they'll be happy.

FAQs

Stoke City play their home Championship matches at the creatively named bet365 Stadium.
That one’s all about the city. Stoke-on-Trent is famous for pottery and ceramics, so the nickname couldn’t really come from anywhere else.
Anything really. Passes, corners, throw-ins, goals, cards, and much, much more.
Stoke City were founded in 1863, making them the second oldest professional football club in the world still playing today.

Clean sheets in the Premier League and Championship

Five Premier League keepers have three clean sheets from five games, but Konstantinos Tzolakis has made the most saves of the group. In the Championship, George Wickens has matched Lawrence Vigouroux's four clean sheets while facing far more shots.

Eight Championship players are one yellow card from a ban

Eight Championship players are one yellow card away from a one-match ban. Card rates show who might be missing, and QPR should line up cover for Jake Clarke-Salter now.

Five Premier League games in and some players are already halfway to a ban

Match Bingo Game Modes Explained

There are three game types on Match Bingo and they behave less alike than they sound. Live Games follow a real fixture as it's played. Bingoals swaps the fifteen events for fifteen teams and needs every one of them to score. Quick Games run every few minutes on football from last season, so there's nothing to wait for.

Does a New Signing Change Anything on Your Match Bingo Card?

Deadline day comes and goes and your card stays exactly as it was. Match Bingo cards are built from things that happen in a match, goals and corners and fouls, rather than from the players who make them happen. No name on a teamsheet reaches a single square. Here's what a signing does change, and what it doesn't.

Is Match Bingo Safe? Licensing, Fair Play and Player Protection

Two things usually sit behind that question: whether the company is real and regulated, and whether the game itself can be got at by somebody sharper than you. Match Bingo is operated by RTSB Limited under Gambling Commission account 51467, which takes about a minute to check. The second answer is duller: there's nothing to press.

What Is Football Bingo?

A card holds fifteen things that can happen in a football match, and each square marks itself the moment its event happens in the fixture you've chosen. You buy before kick-off, then you go and watch the game. Complete a horizontal row of five before anybody else and you take the fixed prize for that tier.
