I’ll be with you NJ (but please don’t get us relegated while you’re experimenting like a crazy little Welsh scientist). Shine on you crazy diamond! I hope no one else has used that yet. 😊

Every week since he arrived we've gradually seen the posters come out of the woodwork gradually turning against Jones. Rather than the waffle posts just nail your colours to the mast now and let's see how the posters line up on the board so we all know where we stand. Less of the the long winded bollocks just two words from each poster. Either With him or Against him. I'll bump the thread when we are fighting relegation or when you all start nursing on the tit of a promotion campaign next season. Me I'm with him. with him for the moment, needs to start winning a few though lol

With him. Can’t be judged until he’s had a chance to build in the summer. I’m not sold on all the chopping and changing between matches but he’s been unlucky to lose Adam as soon as he reinstated him. I never expected miracles anyway. It’s been an awful season, he’s just got to keep us in the league, it really has been that bad.

On calmer reflection after yesterday I agree we should just back him almost without giving it any thought. Just get on with it. On the plus side he is clearly a very dedicated and passionate young man dealing with things that are completely new to him. If we had wanted a quicker fix we would probably have been wiser to go with a more experienced manager but if the aim is a long term remedy we need to take all this pain on the chin and accept that football matches will not for a long time be a pleasure to watch. It worries me that someone builds a career on single tactical formation but again I guess he will learn new things and , like Rowett , be a better manager for the experience. I hope it all doesn’t get too much for him because he seems to take it all very personally and I don’t think anyone will benefit from him feeling he is backed into a corner by fan pressure aswell as the poor results. Football eh - don’t you just love it !! Not at the moment.(thanks for the tip Clayton)l My pleasure, I can see there’s no stopping you now 😀

Didn’t do enough in transfer window. Although disappointed I will be with him till October/November to see how many of the shit we have got rid of in the summer.

It's a bit like being asked to rate a restaurant before even finishing the starter and no wine has been served yet. The chef seems a nice enough bloke, though that doesn't mean you won't get food poisoning. And I'm not too impressed that the chef expects me to clap the arrival of every course. Suppose one has to give a little slack because the ingredients he's working with are a bit stale, but still he's choosing the combinations, and some of it's a bit of a dog's dinner...
I'm staying quiet until I've had the full meal.

With him --- for now. The last thing we need is another managerial change.
But this pig-headed insistence on a diamond system that doesn't suit the players is placing an unnecessary straightjacket on the team.

I’m with him but fear for him , he is making eccentric and naive selections around McLean , Bolan, letting Pieters go , not playing Diouf and the “patsy throwers “ will be watching with interest clear that unlike the big name alternatives he offers another chance to avoid any accountability .
For me he stays now even if we get relegated , he might even be more comfortable in division one

100% with him.....he'll sort it in time, but it's gonna take time!!!
There's a hell of a lot of deadwood around Stoke City Football Club at the moment, so it's small wonder it's all crumbling around him!!!
Until he gets the chance to make an over haul restructure, there's really no point in judging him!!!

With him. Young Nathan Jones has got himself a massive job on. The rotting carcass that he has inherited from previous Managers and present Recruitment Staff is an abomination. I do not know how those two comedians have managed to survive for so long. It makes you wonder if Scholes has got some sort of secret information and id using it to blackmail people attached to the club...

With him. He's passionate, a wildcard, he's made mistakes but he's not afraid to experiment.
He will shift some of the numbskulls out and he 100% needs our support.

100% with him. It will take him 3 years to sort this shower of shit out though. 3 years? that's 6 transfer windows. Are you seriously saying that a professional football manager needs this amount of time to improve things. He's inherited a squad that's cost well over a 100m to assemble. I'm sorry but I know a lot of mistakes have been made but you have to expect results much quicker than that.
