Ive just robbed this of there forum and this is what i stumbled on i had to laugh when i saw it just want see what your opinions are ?
I just hope that Pardew, for just one game, doesn't prepare a specific game-plan (and with it compromising the formation) to nullafy Pulis' anti-football pattern of play. In attack Stoke play for stoppages in their attacking half, and batter teams in the box. They're much more structured & methodical than the Wimbledon Crazy Gang teams, hence they're tough to prepare against. You just have to be mentally ready for the physical challenge etc that Stoke offers.
Personally i think Pulis (at least on the field) is bringing the game into disrepute, and there are others too. I'm not Mancini's biggest fan, but fair play to him for recently refusing to to acknowledge him (shake his hand iirc) post game. The football Pulis coaches (or the dog's breakfast that it is) isn't in the spirit of the game,. It's impossible to dock them points but looking at the bigger picture the FA has to grow some balls and set a precedent, for the good of the game in this country - at least from a player development aspect, and we're far behind the Germans atm.
If clubs like Stoke willingly & continue to employ an anti-football philosophy, by employing specialist anti-football coaches as a means of ensuring they pick up their annual slice of the premiership moneytrain, then penalise them financially. The likes of Pulis & Allardyce (ie. survival specialists, who are the anti-thesis of actually developing players technically), with their ideas, will eventually be phased out of the game if clubs come to the realisation that they're poisoned chalices.

There's nowt as delusional as a football fan from the North East!
Nobody can knock the superb season they're having but Jesus, a bit of humility wouldn't go amiss.
Let him get on with it, if it makes him happy and takes his mind off a Scotsman fucking a pig in order for him to exist then good luck to him.

ay up,the geordies have had one good season and they think they can tell us how the game should be played. They're still having wet dreams over Philippe Albert. Ah well. Better to be talked about, good or bad, than not to be talked about at all. Pulis does remind me a bit of Mike Bassett though: "this afternoon Stoke City will be playing 4-4-1-fucking-1."

Delusional fucking idiots

Is it only me who finds this sort of criticism unbelievably entertaining? ;D Can't wait to ruin their Champions League pursuit on Saturday they were played off the park for large spells against Swansea and Bolton, if we go there and take our chances we'll beat them. They are winning games, but they certainly aren't blowing teams away.

They are doing fantastically, but it doesn't matter how their team is doing on the pitch, it doesn't even matter what division they're in, you can always rely on fuckwitted Geordies for pie in the sky, self regarding lunacy. If nothing else it makes you thankful you're not one of them.

The most amusing and deluded thing I've read since the blog from that Citeh fan a couple of weeks ago. I love it when these so-called football purists (whatever that means) go all 'moral majority' on us. It usually happens after we've beaten them so to read this even before the match kicks off is classic. If Big Bad Stoke ruin their Champions League delusion.....sorry ambition, the tears of self righteousness will be flowing at Sid James' Park at 5pm on Saturday.

I bet it must really piss off the purists when they post something like that and the only reaction they get from us is a laugh, Newcastle are hardly barca and i imagine the 4-0 battering we gave them must not have gone down well ;D so much for stoke's style of play eh

Who the fuck do they think that they are? Having lived in Northumberland for 6 years, they really do think that they have a devine right to be champions. They are the most deluded fans I have ever come across. I would love them to rot in the river tyne

I wonder if two of their players scrapping and ripping each others shirts is a better way to 'play the game.' That doesn't sound like a footballing philosophy to me. Pillock.

This weekend aside of course, I hope to god Newcastle do get to the Champions' League. It will offer a tiny ray of hope that there is still some semblance of proper competition in the cesspit of shit that is the Premier League.

Have they already forgotten that season they spent down in the Championship?
I hadn't heard any delusion from them this season, thought it had levelled them out a bit. Apparantely not ;D

Apparantely not ;D That's the opinion of one Newcastle fan so don't look at the opinion of one person and think we all feel the same. After all, a few people on here have said what they think of us on the basis of what they've read from one fan. Most Newcastle fans thought we'd finish mid table this season and have been surprised at where we are. A lot haven't been happy with the quality of our football until recently, apart from a few games. At the end of the day I couldn't care less what people think of our football. All I care about is if I'm happy with it and every fan should be the same. Every time I look at the league table I have to pinch myself because our league position is miles away from my early season expectations. Even now I think we could be be caught by Everton because when things go well for us they go equally wrong. I wish Stoke nothing but good, at least I will after Saturday because the points will mean less to you than they do to us. After Saturday I hope that you go on and win all of your games.

The Newcastle fan makes his point fairly eloquently to start with and then his brain cells stop firing:
In attack Stoke play for stoppages in their attacking half, and batter teams in the box. They're much more structured & methodical than the Wimbledon Crazy Gang teams, hence they're tough to prepare against. You just have to be mentally ready for the physical challenge etc that Stoke offers.
Generally that is one interpretation of the way Stoke play and you can see how he arrives at that.
Personally i think Pulis (at least on the field) is bringing the game into disrepute, and there are others too.
Don't agree with that. Hard but fair, basic at times, but effective and there is more good football in this Stoke side than most either see or give credit for.
I'm not Mancini's biggest fan, but fair play to him for recently refusing to to acknowledge him (shake his hand iirc) post game.
Now that is bringing the game into disrepute
The football Pulis coaches (or the dog's breakfast that it is) isn't in the spirit of the game. It's impossible to dock them points but looking at the bigger picture the FA has to grow some balls and set a precedent, for the good of the game in this country - at least from a player development aspect, and we're far behind the Germans atm.
Silly thing to say. Take Ireland as an example. They were a nothing team until Jack Charlton took them back to basics and then took them to the quarter finals of a World Cup. In the meantime England have tried every type of coaching from every country on the planet and made no progress at all.
If clubs like Stoke willingly & continue to employ an anti-football philosophy, by employing specialist anti-football coaches as a means of ensuring they pick up their annual slice of the premiership moneytrain, then penalise them financially.
It's not anti-football. Rolling round on the floor trying get players booked and sent off is anti-football because it is cheating to give your team a numerical advantage over the opposition.
The likes of Pulis & Allardyce (ie. survival specialists, who are the anti-thesis of actually developing players technically), with their ideas, will eventually be phased out of the game if clubs come to the realisation that they're poisoned chalices.
Getting a team promoted and then keeping them in the Premiership is the objective. How can it also be a poisoned chalice?

Humility and Newcastle fans is a concept that has never fitted. They are like the Scousers of the North. I am waiting for next season because if Newcastle qualify for Europe it will sort the men from the boys. Their squad is far to slim to mount a credible performance on all fronts without splashing cash. Their finances are far from sound and spending big style over the summer will be the potential ruin .... So the ravings of their fans about Stoke mean nothing to me. Karma is waiting in the wings to bite them on the bum
