Dave a mate of mine and an avid Blackpool supporter printed out an article from their Rivals site saying that their fans had voted Stoke the best team in the Championship. West Brom came second with Hull in third place.
'It was Stoke who came out top with their performance at Bloomfield Road probably winning them the vote'
Unfortunately Dave goes under the surgeons knife tomorrow as he was recently diagnosed with lung cancer. Thankfully it hasn't spread and the prognosis is good. I am sure he will be back supporting the tangerines before too long.

Thanks for your good wishes, hadn't realised that the article had already been posted. Perhaps compliments are a little thin on the ground

A lot of supporters I've spoke to are actually glad to see us up there and looking forward to playing us, more for the charachter of our supporters than anything on-the-field.
Any negativity seems to come from the press and, obvisously, a few of the fans from our rivals such as Baggies.

Fellow Stokies thank you so much for your best wishes for Dave who actually has his operation today.
As you say it puts things in perspective, will print out a copy of this thread and give it to him.
