5 years ago, we were a Premier League side. Coventry City were in League Two, as were Luton Town. Mint. When we were languishing in League One Swindon and Oldham were in the top flight, that's football........ What sets Stoke apart is that: The common denominator in Swindon’s and Oldham’s decline and Coventry’s and Luton’s transformation is that, relatively speaking, they didn’t have / haven’t had “a penny to rub together” © JR 🙂

Is this one of those questions on the 1% Club where you have to work out the next figure in a sequence of numbers? The answer's 23rd by the way. Have you ever got to the 1% question Dave? The last 2 weeks 2 young lads have won a fair amount of money and fair play to them LOL I'd do well to get to the 50% question. 😊

I think MON did a good job considering he was always working with a reduced budget, shame recruitment was so bad last summer only Smallbone and Laurent really OK and he is very inconsistent. No idea where we go from here I can't warm to Neil, mainly because how he treats the young players, his Jan recruitment was better than the summer as was Sterling so some hope there along with the few very good performances, however the bad ones have been really bad in my opinion. He is a lucky man if he gets the chance to invest given the poor impact he has had.

I think that any mention of the season just gone should be banned in the future. The weakest Championship for years with 27 points between the bottom club and a team in the playoffs. We all know our performance this year was pathetic, and totally unacceptable. You can dress it up anyway you like but we got more points per game before the January transfer window than we did after it. I can't even be bothered to work out how much worse it would have been only for our good run. This year we are more or less sorted financially and have money to spend on players. I think the time has come to stop making/listening to excuses.
