Fuller & Shawcross return to aid promotion run in

Last updated : 02 April 2008 By Richard Murphy
The potters, as well as their promotion rivals, have been struggling to put the run together that would see them into the Premier League. The return of a refreshed pair of players at this stage could be crucial and both Ryan Shawcross and Ricardo Fuller are due back from 2 match bans for collecting 10 yellow cards.

The return of Shawcross alongside the impressive Chris Riggott could allow Leon Cort to get some rest as he has struggled with injury in the last few matches. Ricardo Fuller should slot in alongside Shola Ameobi up front in what could be a very frustrating but exciting strike partnership. If they hit it off then it could be an exhilerating ride for the last five matches. If they don't then it could be a very frustrating time, and the Potters will have to rely on others to get the goals to fire the club to promotion.
