We’re plummeting towards the championship faster, and more violently, than the hydrogen bomb that destroyed Nagasaki.

Premier league team with League 2 executives. We're raking in millions, if not hundreds of millions, but everything has to be done to as tiny a budget as possible.

Hard to see how people who've created such a massively successful business can be this disorganised and naive...... Extremely poor handling of the club for well over a year. It almost feels like an act of vandalism.

I feel anther boardroom storming coming on. Shame it has to end like this.

What in God's name is happening to our club? We are fast becoming a laughing stock in English football. Three managers in a week have turned us down. Why? I'll start the ball rolling and say it's down to our penny pinching chairman who tries to do everything on the cheap. Well run club? Yeah that's why managers and players are falling over one another to join us.

How much longer are some of you going to take to realise where the problem lies. The owners and CEO are to blame for this masterful cock up of colossal proportions. A fucking monkey could see that Hughes had to go, that it must take place with plenty of time to appoint a new manager and reap the benefit of a full January transfer window. The sheer stupidity of it all is unbelievable. You can go an all you like about how Peter Coates got us into the Premier League but make no mistake, the Coates's and Scholes/Cartwright have fucked up big time. Sure MH contributed to our downfall, and his tactics, substitutions etc. were beyond understanding of late. Conspiracy theorists might even suggest Hughes engineered our downfall. But how many times do I have to say it, the people who let this dreadful situation develop and also seem unable to put right are the Coates and Scholes and Cartwright. Hughes was replaceable, unfortunately it seems Scholes and Cartwright are not, and well, the Coates's are untouchable.

It almost feels like an act of vandalism. But they haven't. The only person who knows how to aggressively attack a market in the Coates family is raking in £200 million plus a year and truly couldn't give a shit about Stoke City. The rest are grey yes men laughing at how "cute" it is to make milli

The people making us a laughing stock are the Coates family, Scholes and Cartwright, not those who saw the problem way before they did. They are the ones who have waited too long before acting, probably wasted the January transfer window as a result, and allowed the media to be party to their shenanigans and probable penny-pinching in the football manager market. Sometimes you have to stand up and criticise those who if people like you are to be believed, are untouchable.

The way the club has gone about things is not the fault of the supporters, but the board. It’s almost unbelievable that the club wouldn’t have someone else lined up when they sacked Hughes, but do you honestly think it was before time for him?

Oh for heaven’s sake.
Every year 3 teams get relegated. Even if we do, (and that is still far from certain), it is not the end of the world. Anyone who seriously believes that any of the club leadership want us to go down needs to go see a shrink. Do you honestly believe that any of the Coates family wants to throw hundreds of millions away by seeing us relegated? Or for their name to be dragged through the mud? By over-reacting (suggestions of storming the executive suite), you are doing the things that have the best possible chance of alienating the owners who then say “right, that’s it. I’m not putting a penny in and we can just sink back to the third tier.” At least they’re trying. We may never have approached Rowett, Flores & MON turned us down. What do you want, to offer it to some bozo who would 100% accept? I’ d rather they take a few days to regroup, identify the next targets and, if they’re currently available approach them, (AVB anyone) and if they’re not, sign the deal now for next season and bring in someone on a temporary basis.
The real thing that makes us a laughing stock is the massive over-reaction on here.
