Well done Stoke for getting to the final.

My mate is a Stoke City fan and after last weeks massive win over Bolton in the semi-final, Stoke find themselves in the FA Cup Final.

I listened to the match on the radio as the kind people at the bbc and itv decided that they didn't want to show it. They of course were happy to show the Manchester derby that played out the day before but unless your team fits in to one of two categories,

a: A London club or
b: Manchester United

ordinary television channels don't like to show any matches that involve any other team.

I'm not going to carry on because then you get into the age old argument that premiership football is shown in several countries around the world for free, but it's not free here.

Anyway, lets get back to the job in hand. One of my friends loves Stoke and as they have never been in the cup final before and may never get there again! I decided to knit some flags. I did 7 little flags which are hanging from an i-chord.

I was allowed to hang the flags in the house for the purpose of this photo and they were taken straight down after. My Mum said that I might be swayed to the dark side if we don't take them down quickly, I don't know what she's on about, it's not like I'm knitting in black and gold (WHICH WOULD NEVER HAPPEN).

My Dad has expressed that he would like me to do a blue and white version. So come on Albion get to Wembley again next year and I will get my needles out, DEAL!
