Stoke City: Fuller passion play 'crucial to City hopes'
by Michael Baggaley
RICARDO Fuller's disciplinary record has been defended ahead of Saturday's Premier League showdown with Blackburn at the Britannia Stadium.
-

The fiery striker's booking against Newcastle last week took his tally to nine yellows and one red card this season ... usually a caution away from a two-match ban.
A late season FA bookings amnesty means Stoke's fiery hitman will now have to accrue 15 yellow cards to receive a further ban – and that would be for three games.

“I dont know if you have noticed that Reading are not assured promotion which means Kitson could well be coming back to Stoke - will he be given another chance ? Maybe not - but whatever the situation dont expect Pulis to be racing to sign anyone in a hurry - remember he waited until almost the last two or three weeks prior to the start of the season before he got some players in. Clearly if and when we get clear of relegation more players will take a look at Stoke and know that if they come here and produce they will be a fixture in the team and get regular prem football - but Pulis will not be shelling out millions I fear.”

“We should have 4 quality strikers competing for the 2 starting places. Beattie and Fuller fit into that bracket. Mama is the 3rd option. If Tony can bring in 1 really good player we will be banging them in next season!”
