Do the Supporters Council engage with the powers-that-be between the regular meetings? This affects a number of Stokies across the globe and one way or the other the club should be letting people know what the craic is.....

In the first 3 months only 4 of our games are on ESPN+. A bunch are on iFollow, but only on the other clubs subscription.

Another department where 10 years of steak and chips hasn't filled down to the paupers.... We are absolutely shocking in the media and PR level. I'm almost certain that if I have no way to watch next year I'll fall off the boat and be done.... As is life?

All right, we're basically a week out and no announcement from Stoke as far as I can see. Do they want to be "that club"? Stoke City FC, listen up, I'm willing to send you my money to watch your matches. This should not be that difficult. A bunch of us extraterrestrials have been streaming a wide variety of things for many years, the technology exists. What's the holdup? I suspect that the hold up comes from the top and his lack of knowledge around the area. The top in this case being the CEO. The media team are small in an age where social media is massive and it’s down to one man. Kind of sad that they cannot find some company that could help them understand the "ins and outs" of online business ventures to help them increase their knowledge. Why I bet you there could be around, oh I don't know, maybe 365 businesses that could do that...

But from what I’ve been told the media teams hands are tied from above. They do what they can with the resources they are given.

An absolute clusterfuck.
10 days away from the start of the season & we have no idea what’s going on.
The idea of listening to that shite last night for a season is petrifying.

I hear you CP, Clive totally bummed me out. Even my Dad texted me: "this is depressing me son..." I was listening on my phone outside at work putting tools away, was pleased we can at least get all the games on radio. BTW How do Signal 2 get around International Broadcast Rights? They even do the cup games. I hope they are just unaware, don't say anything!! It's almost as if SCFC Direct doesn't tell the club they actually sell merchandise overseas! I don't know what else we mean to them really, not much as it seems, it's really pathetic. Aston Villa's preseason match was Streamed LIVE on YouTube. I can stream my DJ mixes live on Youtube. SORT IT OUT STOKE!

Having emigrated 30+ years ago I'm not surprised by any of the above. Over the years I've always made an attempt to get to a game once a year. Wether it was the car parking fiasco, traffic in/out, facilities at the ground (or lack of), cost of the tickets, overall crappiness of the match experience (except for the actual game) I was always perplexed that people would settle for such mediocracy at the club. Back in the 80s/90s you could maybe say oh well maybe they've never been to an NFL,NBA,MLB etc. event and seen how it should be done.. but these days everyone has traveled and seen the superb facilities elsewhere yet back home in Little S-o-T we are still the club that time forgot.... sighhh
