Everything must be ok now.
Some seriously short memories for some…. What a weird thread.

Probably buried under the 9 threads previously that didn’t say that.
It’s one win. We’d have to win at least 6 of the remaining 8 for me to even question wanting him to stay now.
That run from before January until this ONE wine had been shocking.
Hopefully the season ends well as I know that the board won’t sack him before the end of it, no matter what.

Are you sure you’ve only had “ONE wine” mate?😉

I'm a bit on the fence but it proves two things: 1. They're still playing for him 2. We're not a million miles from being a decent team
If he can bring more players in of the calibre of Baker just maybe he can turn it around. Needs to win half of the remaining games though to keep his job you would think.

Not only that but we saved a penalty!
Be on the lookout for UFO's this might be our chance.

It just adds to the frustration with me.
A manager more bold in selection and tactics can get far more out of this squad and that's fundamentally a problem with MON.
He showed he could do it when he first came when we simply had to win games then he reverted back to his comfort blanket.
Today was good but not sure it changes the bigger picture one jot.

Much, much better. Everyone decent.
Played a bit more direct than we have been doing. Nice and solid, less messing about and Brown excellent as was DWP.
Still remains to be seen if MON can do enough to keep his job come the summer, and I'm doubtful, but he's now given himself a chance by stopping the flood before the international break.
Millwall's performance was a horrible flashback to Rowettball, although we rarely played as awfully as they did today. They were just a total mess in every department. Looked like a League 2 side in the 3rd round of the cup swatted away by a reserve team.
Can't remember too many worse displays from opposition teams this season, or pretty much any recent season

C'Mon you mighty Potters! Where were your stupid threads created after each of our last 8 games that we failed to win? I was busy being unhappy that Stoke lost. Today I'm celebrating and thought I'd come on here to celebrate with the only people I know who even know what Stoke City is ..... Looks like I stumbled on the Fart Pail Board instead. C'mon you Mighty Potters!

C'mon you Mighty Potters! No, you thought you'd play the "smarmy arsehole" card because we've won our FIRST game in NINE... Nothing about wanting to celebrate and all about trying to trigger people to a reaction because you think that you're point is proven because of a win that has kept us in 15tg position

Another "Hughes" type lifeline, isn't it?
Oh well, we won and I'm pleased about that. But come next season we might be looking back and wishing we had lost. Hindsight and all that. I'm still not been enthusiastic about our chances of being anything other than mid table plodders under O'niell.

Interesting! Perhaps you've stumbled on the solution? Give him a short term, "back's against the wall" goal to achieve at regular intervals. "Save us from dead cert relegation" - He did it! "Win this game or you're fired" - He did it. "Get us promoted within 3 years" - Hmmm jury is still out - we'll know next season.

I'm happy! Stoke won. MON In. Life is good! I've found that after a bad result, it helps to step away from all things Stoke for a few hours and focus on the important things in life. You should give it a try .... oh wait ... it wasn't a bad result.

The best thing that can happen now is that we go on a run. If O'Neill can rediscover the plot (and this had all the hallmarks of stumbling across something, but that's ok if he sticks with it), that's got to be preferable than starting again when the owners clearly don't have the appetite or competence to change what need changing.

That 100% is the best thing that can happen, however MON hasn't shown anything to suggest that he can or will do that
