I mean, he's already got done by Garrry fucking Monk, Tony Bowbray, a guy that's been in management for 5 minutes and some fat bloke from Wigan. If he get's done by Steve fucking McLaren I'm done. Yeah it's time for the "Championship Expert" to deliver. Excuse time is running out.

It's become pretty clear that we need 2 or 3 more transfer windows to sort this mess out once and for all. Whether that's with Rowett in charge or not, I'm undecided.

We have 5 winnable games coming up. 0-5 points he’s a goner 6-9 points not good enough but hanging in there 10-12 points better than average and results in at least 4 games is decent 12+ puts us well & truly up there.

I am desperately unhappy with today's performance.
Once again a shambles of a team. How sad a guy who has the reputation of being a "Wally" can turn an inferior bunch of players round into an effective team. We have talented players who just cannot play together; that is the manager's fault.
Another 90 mins play and surprise, surprise 2 goals but only 3 shots on target. Their GK hardly had a shot to deal with. But it is not as though we were playing a very good team, they were very average. We should have beaten them comfortably.
Gaps are now opening up in the table above us and we are just 6 points above the relegation zone. This is not "knicker-wetting", we are in grave danger of following Sunderland, Blackburn, and Wigan route under this management. I wonder what the next excuses are going to be for dropping home points.

Still want him gone. Just look at that match as a prime example of terrible setup, conceeding the advantage to an opponent and all around managerial clownery.

it says everything that judging by todays performance and outcome you know that McClaren would get a better return out of our squad than Rowett ever will. He's turned them around on a shoestring in the same time Rowett has had.

Wish we had a manager that could set us up to compete. Argh, so frustrating.

He's rapidly killing any remaining enthusiasm I have for watching Stoke. We are just so boring to watch, have little or no attacking capability, and seem to have on around 3 shots on target per game. He is inept, his tactics and substitutions are baffling and frustrating, and overall he just seems pretty clueless.
The Board must surely be unhappy with our "progress" this season but I can't imagine that they will take any positive action and we'll have to continue to watch this tripe. In the unlikely scenario that Coates did bite the bullet and get rid, who could we see him bringing in apart from someone like O'Neill/Keane or other such exciting prospects.
IMO it looks like we are going to be stuck in this division for quite a few years.
Rowett out !

I've put on my second bet this season. The first was that that "manager" we have won't promote us at great odds at the time. I'm gonna make bank there. The second is we will lose vs. Derby. I'm debating putting a score on it, but you might be right. I doubt binary is here to stay, I think our opponents of late are why it's gone binary, not us.

I assume the owners have written this season off, or they would have sacked him by now. How many games does it take to realise he is taking us nowhere.

I keep watching our games, and its the defensive approach of Pulis with the build-up play of Wenger 15 years ago.
Parachute this side into the 2002/2003 premier league Rowett could have had this team competing for European spots. Sadly, it's 15 years later and the game has moved on. The strange thing is he's a manager stuck out of time without ever having been a manager when this was the effective style of play.

He’s incapable of knowing how to win games and hasn’t a bloody clue about what system he’s trying to play. Has to go,but the board will bottle it again. This season was over before it began....well done Stoke.

The problem is the longer he stays the less chance we have of getting back up. Absolutely dreadful. I made that observation some weeks ago. I decided Rowett was out of his depth when we went 2 down against Rotherham. I don't give the manager any credit for stopping conceding silly goals, that he should not have allowed in the first place. Why is it we don't start playing with intent till we are losing? In the last 2 months we have been lucky to stay in touch with the top half of the table. Some results went very much our way we didn't really deserve, Butland has saved our bacon repeatedly, and the leading teams keep beating each other. But today's draw/loss of 2 points is very significant. It was not just a "6 pointer" against QPR; we are now 4 points behind a team that has lost more than us because we are incapable of consistently winning matches. Gaps in points in the table are now opening up above us; 7th and 8th and 10th and 11th, which weren't there before. But the main point is that we have a squad on paper that is as good as any other in this Championship. There are only a handful of players we would swap for players in other teams like Gayle. Most of the other managers would love to have Rowett's squad, which has cost a pretty penny. Rowett is out of his depth. He quit Derby because he fancied managing relegated Stoke with big names in the squad and the promise to get the players he wanted, most of whom he has got. I still see a comment tonight to "give him time" "it's early days". No, he has had since 22nd May and made a pig's breakfast of it. We need someone in very quickly to turn things round for the second half of the season, but the Board seem to be making the same mistake as last season. I stopped supporting Hughes on 16th December when we were thrashed by West Ham, longer than most, because I felt that man had earned support support from previous seasons' performances. Rowett has no credit in the bank, has achieved very little, and shown no sign of improving in my judgement. I always want my team to win, but regrettably if we go and win at Reading and beat Ipswich, people will be deluded into thinking "maybe we have turned the corner", like some were last season when we beat Watford, Swansea and West Brom, three poor teams. So I don't know what I want, apart from to be proven very wrong and a miracle takes place.

At the rate we are picking up points, we’ll need to start looking down the table rather than up it. Getting tired of hearing about how we’re still in touch with the play-offs. We’ve had chances to capitalise for weeks and we’ve not capitalised due to being largely crap.
The only positive from today was Berahino looking like he could lead the line better than Afobe but the shit-scared, passive, uninspiring football that has been served up for FOUR MONTHS now is bordering unacceptable for me. I could have got up and walked out after 15 minutes, I just thought “what’s the fucking point?” I knew it was going to be another turgid grind.
If anyone can defend a home draw against QPR when we’ve mustered no more than 3 real chances then they’re a more patient supporter than I am.
