We really are toss aren't we. Not content with ruining my weekends for the best part of 35 years, we are now so wank that my eldest son, deep down prefers Burnley to Stoke. I've just got home from work and he's greeted me in his Burnley tracksuit bottoms and a new Burnley home shirt. Just when I think things can't get any worse, my youngest, who I was convinced was Stoke City and Stoke City only, comes downstairs in last seasons Burnley away kit with Walters on the back of it. Not only that, but since Sunday all I've heard via Alexa is "marching on together" and him shouting "Leeds, Leeds, Leeds" at the top of his voice. This bunch of tossers are taking my loathing of them to whole new levels right now!

My 3 and 4 year olds start their Stoke-destroying-their-lives journey on Saturday - I fear I may be in the same boat in a few years!!! 😂

If it's any consolation, i've been sat down for the second night running, forced to read some scribbles on a page and been given a running commentary of the training day. I've been asked to buy tickets for the next home game after Brentford. He's going to hate me in 10 years. "You brought me here Dad, Why?" I blame the sodding parent(s)

Keep the faith.
If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you; If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can dream—and not make dreams your master; If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim; If you can meet with triumph and disaster And treat those two impostors just the same; If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run— Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it, And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!

I blame the sodding parent(s) I would have loved to have got him to the training session for that very reason but work prevented it. At the moment, the fact that Jack Butland waves to him every week and he's convinced the Erik Pieters blows him a kiss every week is the only thing keeping the interest of my little one. He had Afobe on his home shirt and he left the game on Sunday wanting a new home shirt with a new name on it! With 5 minutes to go on Sunday, he looked up at me with his puppy dog eyes and said "I'm sad daddy because George will be happy". (George is his Leeds supporting best buddy). I just gave him a kiss and apologised.

I've been fighting this battle with my little brother - took him to 5/6 games home and away last season (poor sod) - my Dad took him to a few Man Utd games, after he begged and begged, needless to say, he's now a Utd fan.
He's only 14 so I've not given up - but still - bad times.
I used to really love him too, ah well.

Burnley isn't a disaster is it? The time to worry is when there's a sniff of "the big 6" in the house. At least Burnley will be back in the doldrums before long.

You must live in my neck of the woods fella cause they are my 3 local teams. My kids follow Bradford along with their mums side of the family but have a healthy interest in Stoke which is fine with me. Hopefully they'll attend some away games with me this seasons
