If he's appointed and it's looking increasingly likely then that's all the motivation I need for me to pack it in and find something else to do on match days. Call ya self a Stoke Fans, you have no idea what the man can do. Absolute insane comment. Grow up Yeah yeah, OK mate I'm sure it'll all work out splendidly if we just mindlessly clap along being 'real fans'

Yet again a big let down appointment if it’s true? His football is poor to watch,according to Birmingham fans, so unless he starts winning games quick, I can’t see him lasting till till March. This bollocks about being 6th with brum, was after a few games and only 2 pts off 16. You have only got look at last season, Ince had reading flying high after a few games. They got relegated and he had the sack. The end of the day it’s down to the Coates family yet again taking the cheap British option. Let’s hope he as some luck and produces a miracle. He definitely going need the luck…

If we are going for another boring uninspirational British manager - then why not just save some money and let Gallagher do it - what have we got lose, he knows the players got a tune out of them last week. Perhaps they are seeing what happens tomorrow before they rubber stamp anything. Said a few days ago that it wouldn't surprise me to see SJE with Gally as his assistant. Wouldn't imagine that Eustace has got an entourage with him.

If Eustace gets the job then I'm out. Not going to another match again nor am I paying any money into the club via the store. I'll listen for free on the radio instead.

I read a few post match comments on the BBC sport website earlier when he managed Birmingham and I'm not convinced Eustace offers anything different to what we have had since Hughes, he just doesn't seem to be an improvement on what we had. He's on a par to us having Gally as manager in my eyes.

That message was loud and clear at the Swansea game. People have clearly had enough. Any owner worth their salt would have walked in, looked around and walked away with a clear route out of this. "I need to do something drastically different here".

I can see why some insecure, attention grabbing types are so tempted to post random stuff on social media when there are so many out there prepared to take their word at face value. It would hardly be incredible for an out of work manager to go to watch a game on his front doorstep either.

He met with John again yesterday evening so I’m sure it’s just a matter of time before it’s confirmed.. So he's made the short list. Presumably there were other candidates spoken to for a second time who were also on the shortlist.

Each to his own, it’s a free country. If he’s appointed he’s going to get my full support from day one. And if he can turn things round then I’m equally sure that most of the doubters will be swayed pretty quickly.

Give him a chance.
It doesn't matter who the manager is anyway, the lack of ambition, direction, communication from the top to bottom in the club won't change
Standards... Who are we as a club? Who is setting the standards and expectations and letting the players and staff know what the minimum is?

That’s exactly what we’re saying. Coates needs to go if this appointment is Eustace or anyone of that ilk.

I don't get all the negativity towards SJE, I'd be quite happy to have him here... I'd certainly be a damn sight happier than if we appoint Heckingbottom!

I think the bloke really wants the job, and really wants to do well for us.
That's good enough for me. He was a cracking player for us as well.
I never took to Neil from day 1. If we're talking dull as dishwater, then he's the personification of it. Nothing beige manager.

John Eustace had two managers during his time at Stoke.
Both had foreign backgrounds and, no doubt, the best elements will have rubbed off to complement his pure British stock.
Welcome “Johan Pulisace” 🙂

All this I’ll never go again is ridiculous! What happened to “we’ll be with you”?
Managers come and go, you support the club regardless of who the manager or the players are!
I seem to remember when Eustace got the sack, a fair few Stoke fans were calling for him to get the job. I am disappointed the club hasn’t taken a risk but I think at least Eustace wants to manage us and do well for the club as opposed to the wages that we offer like recent managers!
Nothing is official yet but if it is Eustace then alls we can do is get behind him. And for all the ones who “are done with the club”, don’t bother returning when we’re successful whenever that may be.

They say a week is a long time in football.
A week ago Eustace would have been a fairly popular choice to replace Neil.
Now, grown men are threatening to never attend another game if he is appointed.
It's embarrassing, get a grip and give him a chance if he does get the job, which is far from certain.

Unless it works out well, of course (if he is actually appointed, that is). I don’t think Eustace is right for the job, but if he gets it, I’ll judge him and the owners on results, not just on my opinion that he isn’t right for the job. Give whoever gets it a chance! Even if it’s Steve Bloody Coterill. Actually, except for Steve Bloody Coterill!

It’s not just the Eustace appointment, it’s the absolute lack recognising mistakes, common sense, care about the fans and direction on over the last few years. Appointing a very underwhelming manager is just the cherry on top of the cake.
