The1957–58 season wasStoke City's 51st season inthe Football League and the 18th in theSecond Division.

The pressure was now beginning to increase onFrank Taylor with the club gearing up for another season in the second tier. Taylor believed he was building a useful and settled squad however the supporters were starting to get impatient with him. The 1957–58 season was again a huge disappointment as after a good first half of the season was followed up by a poor second half and they ended up in 11th position.^[1]

Season review

[edit]

League

[edit]

Prior to the start of the 1957–58 season bothGeorge Bourne andJohn Malkin had to retire from playing due to injury.^[1] Despite this the management left the transfer market alone during the summer of 1957 withFrank Taylor saying:I am slowly getting together a useful squad and building a settled side.^[1] However the club was still short on forward players with only five available these ofFrank Bowyer,Neville Coleman,Johnny King,George Kelly andHarry Oscroft.^[1] Yet to their credit these five kept the goals flowing with Kelly top scoring with 24 to his name.

The 1957–58 season again proved to be a big disappointment and whilst until December Stoke were in the top two, they ended up in 11th place with absolutely nothing to show for the early efforts.^[1] Taylor did go out and spend £11,000 onDennis Wilshaw fromWolverhampton Wanderers and long servingFrank Mountford bowed out after eight years and took up a coaching role a position he would keep until 1980.^[1]

The fruits of the club's youth policy were slowly play dividends with the emergence this season ofTony Allen a quality full back who go on to win international honours with England.^[1]Peter Bullock also came through the youth team whilst he did not have a very successful career with Stoke he made his debut againstSwansea Town at the age of 16 and 163 days old and he scored becoming the club's youngest player and goalscorer.^[1]

FA Cup

[edit]

Stoke made in-roads in the FA Cup overcomingAston Villa in a 2nd replay and thenMiddlesbrough to reach the fifth round where they came up against a powerfulBolton Wanderers side who with the help ofNat Lofthouse beat Stoke 3–1 as they went on to lift the cup.^[1]
