Denis Smith sent off for two bookings, 68 minutes.
Terry Conroy missed penalty, wide, 41 minutes.
Stoke are going down and Wallace’s hat-trick, aided by Ferguson’s aerial power, helps them on their way. They have Smith sent off for fouling Hutch with 24 mins left and Conroy misses from the spot after Sealey fouls Garth Crooks. Ruggiero atones when Coop brings down Salmons.Â
