Couldn't give a flying fuck what that twat says, on Freeview Quest is only available in SD. Jesus, chill. It’s only football. Yes, it's Football. But it's also the 21st Century, and watching SD on a large screen is horrific. The EFL should never have given the rights to a channel that can't even broadcast the highlights package in HD on the country's largest digital platform.

Pulis: "I don't think this group of players are good enough to get promotion."

Really, that's what you have to offer? Nonetheless, here is why: I've watched 3 games in 2 days - The level has been seriously shit in all of the games. I can say this by comparing bottom end prem teams standard and the championship, any other questions?

I can say this by comparing bottom end prem teams standard and the championship, any other questions? Have you never seen 3 bad games in the Prem? Of course it’s not the prem and the standard is lower, but if you’re following Stoke to see the latest gazillion pound superstar, you’re following the wrong team. I’m looking forward to playing teams that are more or less the same quality as us instead of teams which any one of their reserves costs more than the entire Stoke squad. The Championship is full of hard grafting teams that are striving to prove a point. Give me that everyday of the week compared to some overpaid piece of slime that earns his living off the fans hard earned cash yet can only be bothered to turn up when it suits him.

Colin Murray says it’s HD - and he’s presenting. Couldn't give a flying fuck what that twat says, on Freeview Quest is only available in SD. I have it on freesat channel 167 on a Samsung smart t.v. with built in freesat tuner not old sky box

Give me that everyday of the week compared to some overpaid piece of slime that earns his living off the fans hard earned cash yet can only be bothered to turn up when it suits him. So I should go and follow not stoke because some bloke on the internet can't put up a proper counter argument... As for: "overpaid piece of slime that earns his living off the fans hard earned cash yet can only be bothered to turn up when it suits him" I actually agree with a lot of that. But I don't think you'd be able to tell me the cut off point between an overpaid piece of slime that earns his living off the fans hard earned cash yet can only be bothered to turn up when it suits him in the prem, from one who does the same in the championship... What about overpriced slime who work 'ard, etc etc. Not a serious question because there can't be a serious answer to it* NB: (By all means enjoy the championship, but don't pretend it isn't shitter than the prem, nor pretend that 'little old stoke' can only stump up a reserve team price with thier first team in the prem - "I’m looking forward to playing teams that are more or less the same quality as us instead of teams which any one of their reserves costs more than the entire Stoke squad" We paid 18M for Wimmer/ 14?M for SB etc... Those aren't reserve prices they're monstrous.)

That’s bargain basement for them and we will never be able to compete with them over a sustained period. And if we do, I officially quit supporting Stoke. I’m not interested in a competition that simply measures somebody’s wealth.

I can't help you with that - I only hope you don't look at the invested value of this squad compared to the championship and where the money comes from. I'm also afraid you haven't changed my mind that the championship is wank based on the reasons originally stated.

I hope you enjoy watching this wank league, I know I enjoy watching Stoke wherever we play. Perhaps you should do your mental health a favor and only watch when we’re back in the prem.

Form the game and a half I've watched so far one thing is clear. This League likes pace and power which leads to tight defensive games. Creativity is imperative. Bojan might be ridiculously important to us this season. Hmm, defensive games yet more goals scored? More see it as pinball, settled by the battle of teams' 2-3 players with a bit more quality (or should I say "know how") up top (relative to the league) Lawrence for Derby Forestieri for Weds vs Powell of Wigan Maupay and Watkins again for Brentford Gregory for Millwall ... all these guys will bag 12+ goals this year. If a player can get into a groove and bag 20+, or a partnership bag 35, he/they is shooting his team to the top 6.

Bojan might be ridiculously important to us this season. Seeing how deep some of these defences have sat over the past couple of days - Bobo and a proper striker would be seriously useful and then some.

Pulis: "I don't think this group of players are good enough to get promotion." 😁 Crazy if he actually said that, you’d think they would be buzzing after two late goals saved something from the game. It doesn’t bode well if that’s his attitude going into a new season.

Just making a statement that regardless of who/where Stoke are playing, I support Stoke and I am going to look for the positives. There are positives to playing in this division and positives to playing in the prem.

It seemed like you were making an argument that it is better being in the championship
