Heh. Mum brought over a copy of the Stoke City fanmag, The Oatcake and there was a reprinted article from USA Today about our achievement in getting to the FA Cup final for the first time ever.
The article is here.
It's funny because you can tell the author doesn't know much about footie and I bet the readers in Stoke are equally baffled by his references to American sports.
You think you've waited eons for your team's ship to come in?
Bow, please, to the Stoke City Potters. They're a football team from the West Midlands region of England — soccer, to us colonists. They've been waiting on deliverance since '63.
By the way, that's 1863.
