I think we all should lay off the nathan jones slating. He very nearly gave himself a nervous breakdown trying to get things right. Maybe we should redirect our comments to the players who underperformed so badly under him and certainly appeared to not care about their then manager or stoke city but suddenly were capable to put in a good performance after one 45 minute session under the new manager, who it appears they suddenly have decided they want to play for. I think this speaks volumes or our players characters and as Andy Hinchcliffe has said "they should be ashamed" I am 100% behind our new manager and am desperate for him to be successful but i will not forget in a hurry the attitude of these players prior to this appointment. So every player was shit for one man or was it just that one man was shit?

Jones isn't 'our ex Snake Oil salesman'. He gave everything he had, it didn't work out, we've replaced him and now we move on. Or at least some of us do, others like to gloat and tell us all that they knew from day one that he wouldn't work out.
Scholes on the other hand is Snake oil Sales MD, and is 100 times more to blame than Jones

If a player or manager goes on to a social media platform to read about themselves, doesn't like what they are reading and kills themself it says more about them than anything else. I think that utterly callous and misguided train of thought says a lot about the kind of person you are. I would be extremely surprised if any professional football manager ever kills themselves as a result of negative posts about them on a fan forum. To be a manager of a football team requires a thick skin especially if any level of success has been attained. The pressure to perform comes from their own competitiveness and their own expectations ultimately, as indeed it should Me personally? I have nothing against NJ despite his abject failure as our manager but others will have. If they personally insult his family or cast dangerous aspertions about his character then that is a very different matter but insults need to be taken with a pinch of salt in life. You're being too dramatic and easily offended.
