Stoke, who still sit 16th in the Championship table, are back in action on Friday night when they welcome Blackburn Rovers to the bet365, with Rovers arriving with an outside shout of automatic promotion.The Verdict It was a great day for Stoke at Sunderland on Saturday.They ran away with the game either side of half-time and it was good for them to see Gayle on the scoresheet. Whilst he’s not been the brilliant signing many thought he would be, he’s still got 18 months to prove himself to the club.If Saturday can be a platform for him and Stoke to kick on, it’ll be good news for Alex Neil.Gayle’s teammates are clearly delighted, too. Thoughts? Let us know!
