Tony Pulis: 'We must focus on the game'

Stoke City manager Tony Pulis says that the team must not be distracted by the 150th anniversary celebrations at tomorrow's match against Tottenham Hotspur.

Tony Pulis has urged his players not to be distracted by Stoke City's 150th anniversary celebrations this weekend.

The Potters, who sit 11th in the Premier League table, face Tottenham Hotspur at the Britannia Stadium tomorrow.

The manager told the team's official website: "It's a big game for us. It celebrates the 150th Anniversary of this Football Club and the Club have got a lot of events going on around the game.

"What we've got to make sure we do on the football side is concentrate on giving Tottenham a decent game and ensuring that we put a show on for the fans.

"It should be a cracking game which we're all looking forward to. Spurs have got an outstanding group of players and they'll come here knowing that they really have to win the game to keep their hopes of qualifying for the Champions League alive."

Stoke are unbeaten in their last three games.
