At the end of the day guys, you cut us all open and we bleed red and white, we are the stoke city family, we will do anything or say anything to defend our great club when Mancs, Scousers, Cockney's, deluded vale fans laugh at us and give us shit but we defend the club as we should. When other fans say they support the greatest team in the land/world, its bollocks, why is it bollocks? Because we support the greatest and most wonderful club in the world, it's our family, our club, our team, our pasision and we win, lose and draw as an army. So Saturday is the first game of the season for us and we have 33 chances to make it right starting Saturday. GOOOOAAAARRRRNNNN STOKE!!!! And like any close family we squabble and argue with each other endlessly. But attack any of us or our beloved club and we stand together defiantly against the world.

Well said.
We don't want to be like Aston Villa last season because the fans turning on the players/club made what was already a bad situation much worse. We need to be noisy and intimidating to the opposition just like in the 1st season in the Prem when we had our backs to the wall. We've seen the effect that positive, passionate support can have on the players and I've got faith that we'll be able to turn things around.
GOARN STOKE!

Bless your little cottons. No you've been accused of it because you've dripped the same poison from day one of Hughes reign. Presumably because he isn't someone else. I haven't dripped poison about Hughes. My opinion of Hughes has never been high. I thought he overspent at QPR and his team eventually got relegated. That they didn't get relegated the season before was down to a Jon Walters penalty against Bolton. He's spent in the region of £44 million on Imbula, Shaqiri, Allen. Supplement that with Diiouf, Bojan and Arnie. He doesn't know how to use them. He didn't know how to use Joselu and Wollscheid is a complete mystery. Now, instead of stomping your feet and reverting to insult mode at every given opportunity, why don't you for once in your life put together a constructive post and tell us all just why Les is a footballing genius. Granted - 3 top 10 finishes is impressive. The football we played against Man United, Man City and Chelsea was excellent. My opinion is that he he devised a system that worked brilliantly for a short time. After a month or so teams had worked it out. The system is easy to defend against and will work only sporadically. It has not worked since the end of January. He has weakened our defence and his failure to cover Butland is utterly incompetent. I've been worried for months about our defending against set pieces. We conceded 3 goals from set pieces against Crystal Palace. Have a look and see how many home Prem games Palace have won in 2016. Many stats have been quoted on here since Sunday. Have a look and see what they look like in terms of goals for, goals against, wins, losses and draws, shots on target, kilometres run, set pieces scored, set pieces conceded etc.... It does not make for pretty reading and gives a clue as to why we are where we are. This thread was about Stoke fans getting together and getting behind the team to try and change our fortunes. You choose instead to plough your lonely furrough of slagging off anyone whose opinion doesn't coincide with yours. You really are a strange bloke / girl. What the fuck was he doing before our recent downturn in form? Selective and unintelligent garbage.

From the stands... There is nothing that other clubs would like to see more than stoke get relegated, that's plain to see, also it seems the premier league and FA would love to see it too. Fuck em all, we as a club have come so so far I've the past 9 years, beyond belief really and back in the early days of the prem the Brit was an absolute bear pit for opposition players who hated coming here and a fortress for us. We are struggling big time at the minute and we are all in this as one, team, management, fans and as a club. We have to show the team and management and every other fucker we are all still with them on Saturday when TP rolls in to town. Yes the players need to give us something to shout about I get that but if we all give it both barrels on Saturday they we will surly react to that. I only say Saturday as the atmosphere will be nowhere near tomorrow night. We have all become a tad complacent after 8 years at the top table quaffing like rich men, I sure don't want this ride to end and I am convinced after getting over Sunday and hearing Coates back the manager, we have to do the same. Let's turn the bet365 in to a coldren of an atmosphere on Saturday as I can't wait to get behind the boys tomorrow and especially Saturday against the baggies. Every step along the way!!! Great post.

The sentiment in bang on, but this works both ways. The players have to give the fans something to shout about. No fans of any club in the country would be happy clapping the shit we have seen over the first five games. If we see some commitment, and players actually running about, then Stoke fans have always been supportive in my experience.

Spot on Cilla. I bet Pulis will be rubbing his hands together having seen our shambolic defending, we really need to generate an atmosphere so vocal and hostile he and his team won't know what's hit them. And show every fucker we are behind the team. Cast your minds back to his last visit, We went down to 9 men and they went on to 3 points, it still makes my blood boil. Our backs are against the wall at the moment we need to come out fighting, it's us v the rest of the world so to speak, I'm sure the players will respond if they see we are right behind them.

Agreed and starting tonight!
I'm not expecting a big crowd for various reasons but if you can be there and you haven't got a ticket why not get yourself down and let's show the team that we still believe in them.
See you at 8pm (going to take some getting used to!)
