Can we not get Denise to come in and try to motivate our players via a sort of TED talk?
Explain to them what REAL success is and how hard you need to work to achieve this.
Maybe they will listen as she has more money than they will ever have. It's a last resort. We cannot keep changing the playing personal. It's unsustainable.
Get Denise in and let her do the root and branch. She doesn't like football so would not be under pressure to go easy on 'some' personnel.
PC and JC seem far to soft. We need to 'man up' throughout the club before we completely implode.
We really are in a sad state. Maybe TED talk or alchemy our best hopes.
It's not easy being a Stoke fan. Lol.

It would resonate more with a footballer to get a motivational speech from an ex pro who has won it all, than a businessman / woman.

We have imploded, completely. What we have now is the recovery operation and its not going very well. At all. |

She should show them her bank account 😎 She should actually show them all the Mamba. Maybe seductively slap it on one or two foreheads in a semi serious, passive aggressive nature. If that doesn't work we know we're knackered. |

Unfortunately, Hard headed, intelligent and probably very ruthless business lady she is, She might be thinking of going to dad and saying .. please dad we got an expensive bunch of losers costing us an absolute fortune and causing us humiliation whilst, antagonizing that sorry bunch of losers daft enough to be still turning up. My business opinion ....for the good of the family .... get rid.

'You have to find a way to take advantage of lots of the most vulnerable people, do it to more of them by getting on the internet, and then milk it for every penny'? "Plus, restrict anyone who might win a bit from us. I can't afford for the odd account to be a few hundred quid up" Bookies are cowards. |

Just bastards who are on a mission to extract as much money as they can from punters before the regulators spoil the party. To run a bookmaking business, and to restrict accounts of people who win from you, makes you a coward in my eyes. Sure it makes good financial sense, but it's not in the spirit of bookmaking. If they had tiny margins I could understand but Denise Coates clearly detests sharing even a few hundred quid of her grotesque wealth with the 'plebs'. It's a scummy business model. |

On the rare occasion I've been a few hundred quid up I was never restricted, although I've never used bet365. |

On the rare occasion I've been a few hundred quid up I was never restricted, although I've never used bet365. I decided to have a flutter on the horses and landed a couple of big winners. As I was a few hundred up I placed another couple of bets and won again with both. Pure fluke. I know nothing about horse racing. Next day, stakes restricted to £10, banned from all promotions and later the same day banned from depositing at all rendering my account useless. For a billionaire to treat a punter like that is disgusting. |

Denise Coates has absolutely no interest whatsoever in football including Stoke City.
