If anyone says anything other, they are lying. In the past dozen games only Blackburn away were we remotely decent. MON football is officially now dreadful. Not sure he knows how to stop this poor run. I hope Stoke manage to stay up but it’s not only dreadful football, it’s relegation form.

Even then the figures for the official stoke stream are as embarrassing as the performances. I'd say you are actually supporting your personal belief that we are shit and getting in the wrong direction by enacting your agency to not go to the game nor watch. Avoiding things that are not enjoyable should be supported. Watching stoke is shit this season. Even the wins have been mostly crap.

We are going through a bad patch but I for one will support my club through the bad and good times. From where we were last season when we all thought we would go down to where we are now even though we lost Campbell plus how ever many injurys we have had. We need to get behind MON and see where we are next year. I know we have not been great but we have a lot of youth we are bedding in this year.
Just be careful what you wish for before we end up with a Jones mk2

Let's face it the club have gone for the cheap option for the last few managers until the board decides on employing a top rate experienced manager we are going nowhere

We have no money for the next 2 years until we can get rid of the players we have on stupid wages. I think MON can't be judged until next season when we get Campbell back and our new lm can't remember his name. Just look how different Norwich look without pukki and tell me that one player does not make a difference. Let's get behind the team and look forward to whats ahead. We have a promising under 21 team with players to join the 1st team I feel the future us bright.

It's glaringly obvious that MON is restricted by FFP which means he's found it hard to get his own team in. He has/the board have done a decent job shifting some of our highest earners, which puts money in our pocket so hopefully we are in a better financial position next season so he can get his players in. He seems intent on playing a 443 which we don't really have the players for now, but come next season hopefully we do. This was never going to be a quick fix. Keep us up last season. Consolidate this season. Compete next for promotion next season.

I’ll keep on watching because it’s a great bonding experience with my father. Watching from across the other side of the world and being able to text about the game has been a really great experience. I’ll keep on watching just for that to be honest. Stoke for me is a family experience.

Avoiding things that are not enjoyable should be supported. Watching stoke is shit this season. Even the wins have been mostly crap. You support Stoke for enjoyment? 🤔 No not always. Yesterday wasn't enjoyable. I'd say belonging and hope were more a factor, and possibly addiction? But yes when we win or draw and play well there is a certain amount of joy present. Losing against the best I can take pride in our efforts, losing against the crap we play these days and watching us okay so poorly... When our B team used to walk over championship teams particularly those in the lower half but only 5 seasons ago, is absolutely diabolical. I still maintain that 5 years ago we could have purchased most of the best championship players with potential and loaned the youngsters out to develope them, worst case scenario we have a team full of the best or those with highest potential should we ever get relegated. Instead we have this bunch, I cannot even begin to believe our change in fortune. There are zero footballing brains at the club, only chancers Why are we loaning players out who feature and support our rivals???????🤦

Isnt the fact that you are 'hoping' for a win against a team with -12 points at the beginning of the season and no money spent an indication that you actually agree though??? We shouldn't be hoping, more expecting and stained with anything but. Instead we are going to watch 'in hope' that we can avoid defeat against the mighty... Sheffield Wednesday... Who themselves have had 3 managers this season

-12 doesn’t reflect their form this season though?
I am hoping for a win ( as opposed to expecting a win), I always hope we will win. I was hoping that we would bounce back to the Premiership with some of the quality players that we retained This is a manager who is prepared to introduce young players - something many fans were crying out for, At the moment our experienced midfield are unsettled and not working well together Campbell injury has been a massive blow, we have just a few players of his importance Liverpool have an array of exceptional players, yet one key member injured is affecting them too
