"His form has taken a dip recently". I would say that it has been over the past 1 3/4 seasons. Sorry Tone, but you really have got this one wrong. He is not a premiership footballer.

people paying good money to watch football are entitled to their opinion and the general feeling among the majority of Stoke supporters is that Sidibe is not good enough to be playing at this level so he will come in for some critiscm

You Stoke fans who pay good money on saturday deserve better, think Pulis needs to go to spec-savers. Because he can see something 25,000k fans cannot.

I'm sorry and I might get a good slating for this but I don't really care as I am entitled to my opinion but I agree with TP on this one.
Mama has scored only a couple of Premier League goals for us this season granted, but one more than Ric, I know Ric is ten times the player and offers a different presence to Mama but the big man has been great for us since we came up to the prem, in his first season last year I can't remember one defender really getting the better of him, and when he went off injured against Fulham last season we were all gutted and he was sorely missed, he also bagged some important goals for us last season too, Villa at home, WBA at home, Newcastle away.
I know he has not been as good this season but he has had a horrific injury to overcome and I bet you weren't slating him to the hills when he went down the wing against Arse in the fa cup and delivered a peach of a cross for Fuller to nod home, or at home to Man City when we went down to ten men in the league game and the effort he put in down the right was immense as he is a striker not a winger and far from it, and when he bagged against Fulham at home too, was a great finish from the big man.
I know he struggled on Saturday and got a right load of flack for it but for gods sake he has been great for us since we came up and yeah if he moves on in the summer then so be it as it maybe time for him to do so but the big guy does not deserve all this stick thrown his way by us fans who sung his name to the hills last season before his injury, the lad is giving his all for the shirt and he needs our support whenever he plays.
If he does go in the summer I bet he doesn't want to leave with bad memories of us fans booing him and all ganging up on the lad, he deserves better imo and deserves us singing his name and getting behind him instead of on his back, if he plays on Saturday I for one will be 100% behind the big guy, or if he comes off the bench it will be the same, we might not see mama again after this season and some of you will be jumping for joy but for what he cost us and the service he has given us he deserves a big thank you and a fond farewell if this is his last season with us.
Keep going Mama and keep your chin up big guy, some of us still believe in you pal.

Fickle, follow the heard it's an easy option mate. You obviously love to see people fail and revel in it. Whilst he is a Stoke player we should all be united and give him our full support.

Some people on here are truly unbelievable.

He’s done too much and been too fine a servant of our beloved club to be slated.
IMO he needs a break as he’s looks a bit jaded of recent and his performances have suffered. I think Tone should have taken him out of the firing line a bit sooner to protect him from some of the fans that have lost patience already.
It made (and makes) sense to me that Kitson should be given a run of games now as he’s chomping at the bit and has a point to prove.
I think it would benefit Mama having a rest too and I think he’d come back stronger.
You saw the reaction of Tunny when he got on the pitch on Saturday after he let himself down in the previous game.
I’m sure Tone will handle this situation too.

Sorry Cilla, what were you just saying about a fucking microsecond ago about 'being entitled to an opinion' ? H There's having an opinion mate and then there is just being nasty to a Stoke City player who has served us well over five years, surly we should all be united in helping the big guy through this hard time he's getting from supporters, I just don't get how people can forget what the big man has done for us over the years. It is just a little harsh RAF.

Hmmmm, I think I'm going to struggle here with you mumf, I'll try and put it as simply as I can so that you can understand what I am saying. YOU WOULD RATHER SLATE A STOKE CITY PLAYER WHO HAS WORKED HIS ARSE OFF FOR THIS CLUB FOR FIVE YEARS AND WHO IS HAVING A ROUGH TIME OF IT LATELY THAN ENCOURAGE HIM AND LET THE BIG MAN KNOW WE ARE ALL BEHIND HIM WHILST HE IS OUR PLAYER!!! Fucking hell that was hard work getting through to you, I think if you are a Stoke City fan and you have this opinion of Mama then you are the one with the screw loose pal. Have you never had a rough period in your working life and you needed a bit of help from the people around you? If so then you know how he is feeling.

Pulis will always support his players in the public domain and good for him. However, this stand-off between the pro and anti-Mama lobbies is becoming boring and damaging. We all need to show a little more humility when we post and at least make our criticism constructive. There's nowt wrong with that at all, but when it gets personal then some folk on here let themselves down badly.

Why do you assume that because a player gets a bit of stick those fans are at the match booing him. Complete nonsense. I happen to know Sidibe is a very poor footballer at this level, but when I go to the match and he is playing I get behind him, like I do to all players. There may be the odd head in hands when he slips over in the box when in 5 yards of space and only the keeper to beat.

Keep going Mama and keep your chin up big guy, some of us still believe in you pal. Spot on. It seems to me that people who continually berate our own players undermine the team spirit so carefully nurtured over the past few years. Mama is certainly not the first ,nor will he be the last of players who despite giving 110% effort are seen as scapegoats if things do not go well .(Cresswell ?). I admit as does T.P that Mama is not at his best currently, but Mama does not pick the team neither does he make the substitutions, if T.P thinks that Mama should be in the team, then we should get behind him, he certainly owes us nothing and for that reason alone he should command respect.
