Agreed. Absolute clowns. These are the ones that delivered Bauer, Ndiaye, Etebo...... While we're at it can we begin with a cull of half wits like you. I am on a train to Leeds at the moment. Lovely sunny day, first game of the season yet we still have cunts like you stinking out our club. Fuck off you wanker. You are not a Stoke fan, never have been, and never will be. Plus Imbula, Wimmer, Berahino, Jesse, Fletcher........ enjoy the day out fingers crossed we win Thanks Shithead or whatever your name is. The chronology in what you have just said is a little too subtle for you I see. I hope you followed your mum's advice and got off your computer and got some fresh air this afternoon. I'm sure you are a good boy underneath it all. I was young and stupid once.......although Christ knows I don't think I was ever that bad...... Yours A Stoke fan (you know the ones you've read about on the internet)

[ Look mate. I'm tired. I've been up since 5-30am to follow my team to an away game. I realise you've not got a fucking clue what I'm on about so I'll cut you some slack. I've been a Stoke fan for coming up to 50 years now. My wife's a Stokie and my son was born there. Stoke is full of the nicest people I have ever met; genuinely lovely people. There are however - statistically inevitably - a small minority of wankers. I thank you for your honesty. I can forgive youthful ignorance but if you have followed Stoke for as long as you say you have then you are - sadly. - in an elite minority of wankers..... nay a cunt. Now if you'll bear with I will return to my pint. Many thanks

The Coates family have underinvested for too long now and the money that has been made available has been wasted. They need to bring some more top quality players in sharply or we won’t be seeing premier league football again for a long time .

They could have done better, but we have recruited well so far. Honestly rowetts biggest problem is mentality. I’ve been on all the threads and this is it for me, our mentality has to change, it doesn’t fucking matter who we sign. We need to be aggressive, front foot, in your face and make things happen. If we keep playing how we have for years, and today was the same.....it will be no different. A lot of them players out there are used to being second best on the football field against the opposition, we need to realise now we are the fucking best. Honestly, we can sign whoever you fuckin want but the club mentality needs to change

They need to bring some more top quality players in sharply or we won’t be seeing premier league football again for a long time . Said this after the summer transfer window last summer. We will not go up the club is rotten. And I'm not a knicker wetter when I say we will not go up for a long time. All this bollocks of the club will be throwing everything at promotion ultimately has led us to allegedly lose out on the race for Ritchie and Gayle, sign a 34 year old to fall back on in case our other 2 geriatric, tortoise paced centre backs struggle. Sign a striker who will get less service than wba new boiler and fail tonrwmive the absolute shit that will grace our splinter shelf.

We still have the same team that has overseen poor signings and ridiculous contract extensions for aging and failing players, I assume they were given a 'you got us into this mess now you get us out' agenda when we were told of the wholesale changes to be made yet we seem not to have been able to bring in the key signings which the manager identified at the start of his tenure...
4 days and counting to fix that, after which I expect Scholes and Cartwright to do the honourable thing and resign or Coates must act if he is to meet his promise...

I have kept this to myself but I had a coversation with a current striker, I won’t say who but he’s a bit shit, plays for Senegal and also an emergency right back.
They share the exact same feelings on the board we do. The squad are adamant a level of corruption is going on and that nothing will change whilst they are there. A main gripe was the signing of swimmer who turned up Fat and useless when other options needing addressing. He brough up that name not me.
I have not said anything on this but they need calling out now as today that starting eleven is good enough but there is an undercurrent of toxins going through the club and it needs outing.
A change at board level, Cartwright and Scholes and the club is in a better position 100%
As always take that as you will, but that 100% happened.
If you check my other posts I also posted about Diouf being offered China which he brought up in this chat.
I probably shouldn’t say anything his on here but I want the fans to know the squad is thinking the same as us

Well we need a change of ownership then. I know all about the terrible recruitment, the wasted money, the complacency, it’s been done a million times. But it doesn’t change, despite relegation and a promise of an overhaul which has only half happened. So ye, maybe it is time.

I do not know Scholes, but I do know Cartwright, he will never do the honourable thing. It is such a cushy job for him. How much does he earn compared with the average Stoke fan. Not a bad return for a retired (not very good) non league goalie

A nobody, nothing more than you and me in football, I’m sure we can all identify a decent player from a shit player, next minute hes head of recruitment for a prem outfit, done a fucking APPALING job, but he’s still employed. And we wonder why we are so shit.....

“It is absolutely clear that a major overhaul is required. We need to regain our identity and focus and the summer will be spent doing this.” So, so far its been- Lambert & co, Ramadam and Shaq. Some overhaul!!!!!!! Five days to go to the deadline, some serious work needs to be done but players sitting on fat contracts are hard to move (see Michael Tongue).

They didn't promise anything. Sentinel reported different. "Coates family promise major overhaul" or something similar wasn't it. Not sure the family used the word promise perse, but they made it very clear they felt the fans pain and would be making damn certain things were different this season. Time will tell. I seem to recall the phrase Lessons will be learned or something similar from the CEO
