There wasn't a lot of festive cheer at the match today but in the midst of it I did have a snigger.
One of their highly talented lads had a shot in the second half which went out for a throw in, may have been tactical of course or just a bit crap.
A voice behind me piped up "Sign him up Rowett" 
Anything else of cheer today? |

Anything else of cheer today? Yes. I was unwell and couldn’t go. I listened to that shite on the radio whilst eating Christmas cake and drinking several Hot Toddies. It didn’t make the result any better but the combination of Bushmills 10 year old malt, and nurofen softened the blow. Contrary to medical advice pain relief and alcohol can sometimes have the desired effect.  |

During we'll be with you, I heard "tell the lads in red and white, Gary Rowetts football's shite" Made me titter |

For the second match running we managed a foul throw. When your that bad you can’t even take a throw in without fucking up you just have to laugh.

I remember many years back leaving the ground at Blackpool where the refreshments shed had been rearranged and the grassy bank at the side of the concrete steps was on fire. I overheard the bloke in front shaking his head and saying to his mate "Take the kids she said, take the bloody kids"

My wife, who has no interest in football whatsoever, casually walks through the living room during a particularly loud rendition of “Gary Rowett, your football is shit” and says “At least your fans are in good voice”. She’s a Yank, but I swear she’s becoming more Stokie by the day.

She’s a Yank, but I swear she’s becoming more Stokie by the day. They’re a funny breed the yanks mate. I’ve got family over there I took one of them to a game early prem years it was against one of the big boys anyway the stoke fans were singing who the fucking hell are you and he loved it.. Anyway the longer the night went on the more beer was drunk the more this chant kept coming out. I dropped him off in a taxi to a family house where he was staying and his wife come running out mortified at how pissed he was so I just left him to save myself the bollocking but as I was walking back to the taxi I could hear her talking to him and chanted back at the top of his lungs in his strong Detroit accent “who the fucking hell are you” it was brilliant even the taxi driver was laughing!! |

Listen, this is what football is all about - Apart from the plastics who support one of the big 6, REAL football fandom (so, for anyone who supports a side outside the big six) is a journey of pain, misery and suffering, with the odd good time thrown in there. Its the hope that kills you

I laughed when the Stoke fans joined Bristol City’s fans in singing to Rowett “ sacked in the morning, your getting sacked in the morning”.

Anything else of cheer today? The lack of response to a quick throw after that shot summed up the players performance and crowds mood today. |

She’s a Yank, but I swear she’s becoming more Stokie by the day. Stateside, My wife who is also American (Seattle) went to her first Stoke game a few years ago against Wengers Arsenal. After about 20 mins she turned to me and quite seriously said. You lot really don't like their manager do you ? Towards the end of the game she was abusing him like a proper Stokie  GD |

Early in the second half and bored rigid, I thought I would check for messages on my phone only to discover that even Googlemaps was now taking the piss out of my support for Stoke City (this is a genuine screenshot btw and NO I'd not even been near the place) |

Anything else of cheer today? If you at the back of the boothen it may have been me This could turn into an I'm Sparticus moment. I made the same comment. I had a feeling there could be plenty of dark humour today if things didn't go well. My favourite today was when Rowett came out of his dug-out in the second half and this big booming voice bellowed out from behind me "RESIGN!" |
