Musically we are a bit disappinting Slash, Aha, Candy Flip and 2 members of the original Quireboys Any advance on that? Iโm sure one of the Fast Food Rockers was a Stokie, so I suggest you take that first part back. Ha ha, pisses all over Robbie!

Has a connection to the area but zero interest in football and wouldnโt know the first thing about us apart from (maybe) our name Edit- I see he did a couple of tweets congratulating us in the Prem days, I guess we can admit that

Kits Kats in Japan are the greatest thing since early Askwith movies Mint Ferrero Rocher were great Japan has the largest variety of Kitkat known to mankind doesnโt it? Iโd visit there just to see Some of Kit-Kats popularity in Japan is due to the name being similar to the Japanese words for 'good luck'. My favourite is the strawberry one. I like wasabi with my sashimi but as a kit-kat flavour it is not for me. If you like quirky Japanese snacks try Royce. They make chocolate coated crisps. Japan is a great place. Something for everyone. Walking through Sapporo I noticed they had underfloor heating in their pavements and pink'Hello Kitty" traffic cones. I am a civil engineer (in name only... not designed anything for about 25 years) so I tend to take an interest in these things. Everyone should try and visit Japan if they can.

Wonder if there was a connection with Phil Rawlins and Orlando FC ..Rich Beem was born in Phoenix. Just a wild guess.. Also young Anthony Pulis and Inchy Heath managed in the USA. ??? Also Rawlins bought football franchise in Austin Texas and the golfer lives in Austin Texas. All found on Wikipedia. ๐๐

Japan is too far away at my age.. But maybe tempted by Wasabi . Now that is fooking hot stuff ...๐๐

A bit left field but at a stretch, we could claim the famous historian Professor Ian Morris, author of (inter alia) โWhy The West Rules -For Nowโ and โGeography is Destinyโ. Both very good reads. I watched the famous Luton 4-4 with him in 1982 from the Boothen End.

Crispin Hunt Lead singer of 90's Indie rock band The Longpigs (who also featured Richard Hawley on guitar) is a Stoke fan i believe, (he was the stepson of former Labour MP for Stoke Mark Fisher)

Roy Clarke chap was thinking of
Wrote Keeping Up Appearances, Summer Wine and a lot more
For some reason always thought he was a Stoke fan from something I read years ago.
I can't remember Rolo from Kit Kat so possibly isn't
