James 'Curly' Kirtland was the big winner though as his attempt crashed against the bar before he got bundled over by Pottermus, Stoke's mascot.

Quotes of the week
I used to think being on live TV was one of the most nerve-wracking things I would ever do...but then Saturday happened!
Stoke City invited us up to the Britannia Stadium to watch them take on Chelsea and it was a great day out.
We hired ourselves a little mini van and jumped on the motorway straight after the show in the hope of getting there before kick-off, and if it wasn't for Simon we would have done!
He missed our turning off the motorway so we got there about ten minutes late, which probably didn't impress anyone in the press box where we were sitting.
It was my first time watching a game from anywhere like that and I have to say it was pretty cool. There were loads of screens everywhere for the journalists who were doing their reports for the games and it was all very hi-tech.
The highlight of the day though was going onto the pitch at half time to do our very own crossbar challenge... even if I was absolutely bricking it!
It was really bizarre walking onto the pitch in front of 30,000 as all the Chelsea players were coming off, but I managed to keep my composure and get a decent shot off, which wasn't a million miles away.
James 'Curly' Kirtland was the big winner though as his attempt crashed against the bar before he got bundled over by Pottermus, Stoke's mascot.
He's got a reputation for using his wrestling skills on other mascots and he took Curly down with ease!
Thankfully no one embarrassed themselves and we managed to leave the field with our heads held high, before settling back into our seats for the second half.
As nice as Stoke were to us I was obviously pretty happy to see Chelsea win, even if it wasn't vintage stuff... but then you can't play like Brazil every week!
To complete a great day we headed into Stoke town centre for a few 'quiet' ones, although it's fair to say it didn't take long before it turned into something else altogether!
But then it's not everyday you get to strut your stuff in front 30,000 people, so we had a reason to let our hair down... not that we needed one!
Later,
Tubes.

Tubes answers your questions...
Tubes has, got a cold, but his sick lyrics never get old. SICK. Tubes your a top bloke but what I want to know is, what's your favourite football boot?
Sean Atkinson
TUBES REPLIES: Sean I'm loving your flow... sick lyrics! But to answer your question my favourite football boot of all time has to be Adidas' Copa Mudial's. They're simply the best boots in the world in my opinion.
You play right-back now gimme no slack! Tubes your top bloke and spit lyrics like walking. My one question and one question only is; What's your fav pizza topping?
Jack Banks
TUBES REPLIES: There are three toppings which are a must on any pizza; ham, onion and sweet corn.
It's an unbeatable combination as far as toppings go and if I could get that on a stuffed crust pizza I'd be in heaven!
I'm sure I probably could, but every time I go to Pizza Hut I end up at the buffet instead for some reason.
Tubes, your a great bloke and even a better rapper. But what I want to know is what were Anderson, Rio and Ronaldo like?
Stuart Ord
TUBES REPLIES:They were all brilliant and up for a laugh Stuart. Rio's done some stuff for the show before and he always stops and says hello which makes him a top bloke in my book.
Ronaldo wasn't that keen on doing it at first but the others persuaded him to come over and answer a question and he gave a pretty funny answer.
It was the first time I'd met Anderson as well and I thought he was really cool.

A lot of rappers start "falling off" after a period of time, do you ever feel now sitting down trying to think of that question that your lyrics are not as good as before, how do you keep coming up with new stuff?
