Season review

[edit]

League

[edit]

Stoke's overall form in the 1930–31 season improved only marginally as they again took 11th position in the Second Division.^[1] Wins of 5–0 vSwansea Town and 4–0 overOldham Athletic were the best results at home whilst a 7–3 hammering away at relegatedReading a day to forget for Stoke supporters.^[1] Stoke also conceded five atEverton,Preston North End andWolverhampton Wanderers.^[1]

The campaign ended with record gate receipts being taken from the final home league fixture againstFA Cup winnersWest Bromwich Albion. A crowd of 26,064 amounting to £1,540 saw Albion win 1–0 to clinch promotion.^[1] Three debutants in 1930–31 who were later to have a big impact on the club's fortunes, wereTommy Sale,Arthur Turner andHarry Ware whilstTom Williamson left forNorwich City in January.^[1]

FA Cup

[edit]

Stoke were knocked out of the FA Cup at the first attempt after an epic cup tie againstManchester United.^[1] After a 3–3 draw at theVictoria Ground and a goalless one atOld Trafford Stoke lost 4–2 in the 2nd replay atAnfield.^[1]
