While the clash between Stoke and Wolves at the Britannia hardly smacks of a footballing classic, the result and Fantasy returns from tonight’s Premier League encounter certainly have significance to our gameweek 34 Fantasy returns.

Over in Germany meanwhile, United take on Schalke for the first leg of their Champions League semi-final – we just know that there will be a few “opinions” floating around on that one.

Use this thread to discuss tonight’s action then and, if you fancy some real-time interactivity, you can pop in to our Dugout Discussion chatroom which is now open.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

                    It's because he's at home and I won't allow him the internet. I bet he's itching to say something at this very moment, presumably also about how Hernandez should have been booked, like RVP. 😉

    Footy is a bit shit tonight isn't it. Be good if Wolves go down though. Wigan as well.

    Can't decide if I want United to lose tonight or make it to the final and get humiliated. Would take the humiliation I suppose if it were guaranteed.

      I'm not sure it would be classed as a humiliation really. Sure Barca will probably beat us but I can't see it being a heavy scoreline.
