'the other shithead' was quite complimentary about SCFC and their management team. Mick Dennis was not that bad in his comments. It is clear he does not like the way we play but he is entitled to his opinion and he did say that we have modifed our style and at least play a bit more football in the final third.
Listening to that broadcast I don't see what there is to get upset about.

God love Mick Dennis. At least he knows how we feel about him.  He actually wasn't that bad in this interview (apart from over-egging the Ramsey thing) but the funniest thing I thought he said was how us not playing it out from the back appears to be some sort of football crime. I look forward to his beloved Norwich's centre halves piss balling around and watching helplessly as top quality forwards pinch the ball off them and rack up the goals. At least in Norfolk they've got plenty of additional fingers to count the opposition goals. |

Everybody is entitled to their opinion. It's the way that this sistershagging norfolk halfwit puts it across.
I for one will never forgive him for the "diamond"/ "dungheap" comment.
Fatois?? Dead right Dennis!!

I don't just want Norwich to be relegated, I want them to be humiliated whilst their manager has a full on mental breakdown, screaming about playing the game the right away as his team with the season with 0 points, 0 goals and a goal difference of -924. Oh, I'd also like us to win 24-0 away at Norwich so that Mick Dennis can appear on the radio the next day and call it a crime against football.

I listened to the above Mick Dennis interview in full -I dont like him at all for what he's said about us in the recent past.
BUT,
There was absolutely nothing unreasonable in what he said about Stoke city in this particular interview , not one single word you could say was a stretch or a lie
so -why are people having another pop ?
if your'e gonna have a go - at least have some justification ?
(and if you dont believe me - go back - listen to it again)

There's a lot wrong with it if you open your ears and engage them with your brains for a second.
He dances around the notion of anger and hatred from the stands, the booing of Aaron Ramsey as though it was the majority, when it blatantly wasn't and fails to address the real reasons behind it.
The reasons being the completely over the top reaction from people like him when the Shawcross/Ramsey incident happened. Lets not forget he went halfway to exonerating Shawcross with a supposed photo he saw yet totally backtracked and never actually came to the fore with the evidence. I wonder why? If it was another club he probably would have.
Let's not forget the totally over the top press conferences from that total twat Wenger, including some blatant lies about a certain defender kicking a certain Tottenham goalkeeper.
The media hung this club and our captain out to dry over that incident and applied sheer double standards to that incident in comparison to others, and yet they now conveniently forget the actions that they and their hangers on took and spin it totally around on this club and it's supporters.
Stoke is a decent club with rocksolid morals in the game and our fans are decent fans and it's total pricks like Mick Dennis that make us out to be something we're not.
A few forced, backhanded compliments do not fool me for one second.

I have however disliked Mick Dennis long before he started having a pop at us. Thus my conclusion he is twat.

What purpose does it serve?
People get wound up, write into him, call him twat.
It's the same with 5 live et al.
The likes of Dennis feed off the reactions they get.
Without reactions they wouldn't have the air to breathe.

Without reactions they wouldn't have the air to breathe. H It serves no less purpose than the original criticism that created the reaction in the first place. This club has had it in the neck from nearly all angles other than Stan Collymore from day one. Even that in itself is a backhanded compliment! The criticism has ranged from the style of football right through to the Aaron Ramsey incident. I'd wager that a lot of the paranoia comes down to the double standards that are on show nearly every other week. A Stoke player commits a serious foul - it's headline news. An Arsenal player does the same and it's conveniently swept under the carpet. It happens for a reason. Is it no suprise that some supporters consantly fly on the edge of paranoia? |

The style of our play isn't exactly popular with plenty of our own fans either.
The Aaron Ramsey one was always going to be a tough one when the press picks up on granted a small part of our crowd singing 'He's only got one Leg'.
Then also on his return booing him, which they most certainly did.
The press sell their papers by picking up on shit like that and that's how they sell their papers just as 5 live and Talkshite get their audiences.
The best thing to do IMHO is ignore it.
I happen to think we are getting too precious for our own good.
We should rise above it.
I do think we have had some unnecessary shit written about us, but not anywhere near as much as is made out.

I suggested, before the Arsenal game, that if we booed Ramsey it would make us look like complete and utter twats to the larger football world. The general opinion at the time was "fuck em, we don't care what they think". Well many DID boo him and this is what you get as a result. As RAF stated, these people don't give a fuck WHY we booed Ramsey, only that we did. It looked bad and was completely predictable. If you don't give a fuck what they think then fine, stop moaning about it.
As it happens, I DO care that we are seen as unsporting and petty and that is exactly why I argued so strongly that Ramsey shouldn't have been booed. I KNOW that he wasn't singled out but so what? The reaction was obvious and if you don't like it, you shouldn't have done it. If you couldn't care less what they think then, as I said, stop moaning about the reaction.

Starting in August tune in for Series 9 of the The Premiership TV show. Stoke City the nasty Northern bastards continue to compete physically. Meanwhile the swash-buckling heroes from somewhere nice and civilised have had enough and hatch a plot to have throw-in banned, referees unduly influenced and points awarded for artistic impression. Join Dick Menace, our entertainment and celebrity gossip correspondent, as he comments on the this years nicest strip, what songs the fans sing and who he had lunch with at the awards ceremony.
