Maybe another relegation would help this club, we haven't hit rock bottom A lot said that about coming down to this level, as I just don’t think you ever expect things will get that much worse, but it does. I think going down again might cause us huge issues, personally. The club will be on its arse. Attendances would fall off a cliff. Thankfully, I don’t think we are quite that bad to go down but you can’t keep hovering around the bottom 10 and expect people to keep turning up.

Glad I was out celebrating bonfire night, seems like I missed a good one to miss.

Thanks for taking what little love i had for you away today. Thank you for being gutless spineless hopeless players who aren't fit to wear the shirt. Thanks for nothing these last few years We, as fans deserve better You don't deserve us. It is the owners who have reduced us into this state, stand up for this, clap for that and kneel down for this. We have lost focus on what being a football club is all about. Why not have Greta there preaching to me in how my pure existence is a threat to the planet and the club cannot move forward unless I change my attitude and thinking. Maybe it is my fault why the club is so shit, my attitude is stopping it from progressing, I need reframing it is me and all my fault! I am also fed up of leaving the ground after the game and being having a line of private security in yellow coats either side monitoring my conduct as I walk past them. What purpose does that achieve? I am pissed off and my team has lost again and the last thing I want is a line of security checking me out for wrong think or even daring to tread on the grass and not the pavement.

Absolutely spot on. Stoke are at a crossroads with many of us and its only blind loyalty/complete stupidity we keep going in the hope it will get better. I used to watch local grass roots games at the normacot rec and longton park when my dog was still about. It was a reason to go for a good walk and to take in a game. Sadly he passed away and i lost that enjoyable routine and his company. I should probably go and look at foley meir who are local to me to see if my love of the game can be reignited. I used to love watching park football on Sunday mornings.... Shift work pretty much put an end to that, but now I don't work weekends again anymore, so.... I may well start going back to watching a game or two myself, I get more enjoyment from that!!! 👍🏼 Was watching the Cup games over the weekend and, I think it was South Shields? Tidy little clubhouse with a nice terrace to see the game from. Beautiful quality pitch, and then, a big sign saying “19:95” for a season ticket. Looked like a bargain.

You could always go Vale. Why would a Stoke fan do that? That's like telling a vegan who had a poor plant burger at a venue to go to Miller & Carter.

People seem to be forgetting that yesterday we played with fire and determination. Just after we scored from the penalty there was real effort and excitement and the crowd responded too. It lasted about four minutes. That’s the way we used to play for ninety minutes. I have supported this team for 66 years but I can’t keep watching this apathetic dross.

Sad state of affairs that yesterday my 12 year old lad (ST Holder) was more enthusiastic about the Wrexham Oldham game on the tv, than Stoke.
It feels like the club is rotting on the inside, if I decide that next season I’m not renewing, then I’ll switch to Ice Hockey & go and watch Telford Tigers, you certainly are entertained for a couple of hours.
My love for football is slowly dying, overpaid, the refs are incompetent & the whole game feels corrupt (FIFA, UEFA). I’m not even arsed about the World Cup.

I missed the Brum game this weekend. I had a better offer from the Good Wife....???
Thats right I went to the local Garden Centre instead of watching my harder and harder to love Stoke City. We bought some lovely Christmas tree baubles with the money i saved from visiting the Bet365. At least one of us is a little bit happier this weekend. Roll on Boxing Day so i can return to the Garden Centre again to buy some Christmas tree lights the eill be reduced with the money i have saved by not attending the Bet365. I have never felt so indifferent about my team in over 57 years of undying loyalty.
