Stoke hope to have Alan Mogridge back in their ranks for this coming wཧeekend's meetings꧋ against Somerset and Exeter. Mogridge has indicated he may be ready to return after arm and shoulder injuries.

The Potters could certainly use him 𝓀after losing 48-44 at home to Arena-Essex on Sunday.ꦺ Stoke have been hard hit by injuries this season and covering for Mogridge has proved a difficult job.

It's understood that long term injury victim Robbie Kes🃏sler is nearing a return to racing fitness which could signal an upturn in the P🌟otters' fortunes and help them climb away from the lower reaches of the Premier League.
