Being quite new to this board (supporting team for over 40 years) it seems to me much of the abuse and 'hard-man' comments by a vocal minority could partly be down to their anonymity. It shows how naive I was to use my actual name - I just assumed thats what you did! I must be in about a 1% minority. However I'm still happy to continue as I'm not going to abuse anyone on this board or anyone from Stoke City. Perhaps it's similar to road rage, where you can scream abuse or gesticulate behind the safety of your locked car door. Don't get me wrong, football is all about different opinions and I love arguing my point with anyone, especially everything to do with Stoke. Perhaps there could be 2 Message Boards - one where you can give as much abuse as you want and another where it doesn't happen? (I'm sure this will tempt some to give an abusive reply - very predictable and not very original!)

You may be asked about Monkey Aids and whether you have got your brown wings but basically anything goes over there. PS:- Have you got your Brown Wings? |

Thanks for comments - though a lot of in-jokes (brown wings?!) lost on me. A part of me thinks it doesnt really matter what we say to each other. I just hope the extremists revert to type in the real world of the workplace, pub, school, etc and don't take any nonsense from anyone criticising us - particularly locals who don't support their local team.
p.s - Mr. Sausage I think we'll be agreeing to differ on a number of issues, looking forward to the banter!(pps - I havent got a mouse, its just built in to the laptop)

I wonder if that idiot on Radio Stoke was one of those Stoke fans singing "he's here, he's there, he's every f-----g where, Salif Diao, Salif Diao"? What short memories some of you have.As Swampy said, hes a STOKE player. He's one of our own, not the enemy. Surely these two posts from you are contradictory? |
