'''Stoke City Football Club''' is an English football team that is located in Stoke-upon-Trent, England. Stoke currently play in the [[English Premier League]], typically play in a red and white striped kit and are known as ''The Potters''.

The origins of the club date back to 1863 when the club [[Stoke Ramblers]] was formed by a group of pupils at the Charterhouse School. The clubs first documented match took place in 1868 against EW May XV. The clubs founder, Henry Almond was the scorer of the clubs first ever-recorded goal. In 1878, the club merged with [[Stoke Victoria Cricket Club]] to become Stoke Football Club. Stoke changed their name to Stoke City F.C. in 1925, after the city was given city status in England.

Stoke played the majority of their history at the [[Victoria Ground]], which they purchased in 1919. The original playing location [[Stoke Ramblers]] is unknown, but were known to have played at [[Sweetings Field]] from 1875. After 119 years at the Victoria Ground, the club moved to the [[Britannia Stadium]] in 1997.

Historically, Stoke were one of the founding members of [[The Football League]]. While they were founding members, they have failed to win or finish runners-up in the top league in their history. [[Eric Skeels]] is the clubs record appearance holder, playing 592 games. [[John Ritchie]] holds the goalscoring record for Stoke, with 176 goals. [[Sir Stanley Matthews]] is the clubs most notable player historically. During a 19 year playing career with the club, he won the first ever [[European Footballer of the Year]] award.

Stoke's traditional rivals are their city neighbours [[Port Vale F.C.]], with games between the two known as the [[Potteries derby]]. In recent years, Stoke have also began to have a stronger rivalry with both [[West Bromwich Albion F.C.|West Bromwich Albion]] and [[Wolverhampton Wanderers F.C.|Wolverhampton Wanderers]].

The clubs most notable achievements have come in domestic cup competitions, winning the [[League Cup]] in the [[1971-72 season]] and also the [[Football League Trophy on two occasions.
