Our fans are a bit wank really aren't they. The team is wank. The fans are the same as we've always been. But watching the championshit is nauseating at best. Any half decent put together side can win more than they lose. We can't. 🤷♂️ Yeah that's how it works 😀

He did play well. The stick he was getting was ridiculous The bar is a ridiculously low one if you think Campbell played well today mate. What stick was he getting? Genuine question as I wasn't there and was watching on a stream. He gave it away sloppily a couple of times and he missed a good chance. He was still the only one to cause them any problems, he scored, I’m pretty sure it was him that win the corner that led to our 2nd goal. He was involved in pretty much anything positive we did. The sticks he’s getting is ridiculous and today crossed several lines at times.

No good reason to do it. As previously mentioned they’re paid a shit ton of money, taking abit of stick off of the minority is part of the gig..I’d eat shit for 10k a week.
And no, supporters shouldn’t be expected to ‘take it back’ if they dish it out, we support Stoke long after these players leave, we’re literally the only people that should be able to ‘praise and grumble’.
This shit doesn’t wind me up, it just makes me more disinterested in the team and puts me off going to the arse end of nowhere on aways day at a huge expense. Literally nobody wins.

I’ve never rated Tyrese. I find it bizarre how some pinned our run of bad form on him missing from the team when he has his injury. Good finisher but for the most part, flatters to deceive. Has no guile and considering his height and build, can’t hold a ball up. If Rangers still want him, tie a pink ribbon round his chin and send him packing.

I sympathise with the modern footballer and I'm not being facetious either. They sometimes get horrendous abuse at the games and also online. I couldn't begin to imagine what it feels like to walk onto a pitch and try to do your job in that situation.
However, the flip side is doing what Tyrese has done today. Good on him on one hand yet the other, it's hard to see what good can come out of it. Once everyone has finished patting him on the back for sticking it back to the fans, the reality then sets in. Stoke City, 17th in the league and have just struggled to a draw against a dreadful side that has won 1 in 9 of their previous games, now 1 in 10 - all against the backdrop of four consecutive bottom half finishes in the Championship, and an away support today from one of the poorest areas in the country at a time when people are making the choice between eating and heating.
It just ultimately shows how poor we are at the moment and how much of a disconnect there is between our squad, the fans and the people from this area.
There's no real good that can come from this, there really isn't.

Did he bollocks. You've rinsed players in the past for the kind of performances he put in today. Compared to how he been for the majority of this season I can see an improvement, but he really isn't playing well. Nobody in that "team" is.

The way I see it is just like Clucas, if he's done the same.... Reacting when we are just above the relegation zone is pathetic. If he has any ambition what so ever he should self reflect first. Again this takes intelligence. It's much easier to deflect. You should be giving the home fans shit because you are annoying and trying to beat them at a game of football. Not a very good role model for younger players, and not very encouraging regarding "building bridges"whatever Niel was on about.

What lines were crossed and when? Let's see if you get an answer, because I didn't I am also a little confused here. I was at the game and, bar the odd grumble or collective sigh, I did not here any abuse aimed at Campbell? There were other players who were getting far more stick. The away support in general was just very quiet. It was a strange atmosphere. The ear cup was an attempt to get a bit of atmosphere going in my opinion.

A few examples for you; You lazy piece of shit You lazy black bastard (that wasn’t the only reference to the colour of his skin either) Did you have your leg amputated you useless prick Just fuck off out of the club in January you useless twat Aah, Tye, is your knee still hurting (in a mocking baby like voice) followed by “what the fuck has that pussy still got strapping on his knee for” This was all coming from the front 5 rows of block 3/4 and was on top of audible boos 3 or 4 times when he was involved in passages of play that came to nothing.

Anything referencing the color of a players skin is completely wrong. Him being black has nothing to do with his ability to perform for us. The rest of the comments don’t sound bad to be honest. Nothing more than a group of people venting their frustrations at another season of shite. From comments above, it sounds like he was trying to get people going rather than stick it to them anyways.

Atmosphere was dire today. Sold out away end, no atmosphere been like this for a few games now. Players have every right to ask for more Players and the team don't have every right at all. Supporters pay good money to watch and are entitled to express their view. Players have to earn it by doing what they are very handsomely paid to do and that is perform.

More trouble than it’s worth telling a bunch of drunken oafs to pipe down or get kicked out. Frankly, if Ty was responding to racist taunts then he has every right to react. Would probably have been better targeted at those he believed the abuse was coming from rather than a general ear cup that wider support would believe is aimed at them.

I hope the wankers hurling racist abuse were dealt with as they should mate. I said I wasn't going respond on this board for a week as there's way too much club, player and manager slagging, but I have to respond to this. If he's heard any of that then he should have done more than cup his ears. I bet those that few youth clubbers that said it were that pissed that when he scored minutes later they couldn't even remember abusing his and looking stupid for it. I bet they players hearing, reading or hearing about things like this and other comments to players make them really feel like running through a brick wall when they play, not.

I think it's pretty obvious he hasn't heard it to be fair. Id be surprised, in this day and age if someone didn't say anything to the wanker or wankers shouting that kind of shit.

Free ticket give-away at the local mental-facility? Acting like Vale fans against one of our own. Throw a flare over THERE instead. Edit: Only joking about the flare, but for crying out loud come on people!

I was at the match today, to be fair up to that point he was having easily his worst game in a Stoke shirt, every ball bounced off him, every pass going astray. I personally didn't hear any booing of him, just groans of frustration when the move kept breaking down. He was given plenty of encouragement from what I could hear. I missed the cupping, just enjoying the mental.

Thats what I saw too Yes he should have scored his one on one, other things didn't either overall he was a threat As was, to a lesser extent, Delap If they can improve on their weaknesses that's a good pairing If they can't then you change it Games before window shuts let's see
