I don't subscribe to this so-called hatred of Vale - but I do get it for those who do .... their relegation adversely affects the city to some degree and it would be a sad day to see them fall out of the FL as many "old" leage clubs have over the years. As others of a certain age have stated, there was a time when a good number went to both Stoke and Vale on a regular basis and always wanted both to "do well" as my dad used to say - he was primarily a Valey through attending Stanfields Tech, but went to Sheffield on that summers day when we missed out on our one and only chance of becoming 1st division champions in 1947 - rightly or wrongly he was always a bit bitter about Matthews leaving us for Blackpool in the weeks before that delayed match. He then took us to see some of the more glamourous 70s matches as kids - Ajax and the like when we were pushing for the top post winning the League Cup - anyhow I digress..!!! Crewe however are a different matter and I'm definately in the "hater" camp primarily for the way they denigrated our club during the 90s, and generally cocked a snook when they were briefly above us (and the eternal Radio STOKE wank-fest over Crewe and Gradi week in and week out) - indeed, I clearly remember the cheers going round the Vic if Crewe were leading at half time but this goodwill soon disappeared when folk realised what a nasty, malign little club they were....... Speaking of Crewe - I had the misfortune to hear McGarry commentating on their match v Wrexham on Saturday on my way to the Brit - I was gobsmacked to hear him refer to the Crewe fans leaving early as 'clearly not proper fans'! McGarry is a prick and I hate listening to him but I was a little stunned to hear that little gem come out of his mouth.

Vale fans hounding out yet another owner? Surely not. I said it before and I'll say it again. It won't be long before they are trying to mow Carol down after a match. Look what they did to poor old Smurf.

The reason for the โhatredโ for our friends from Boslem stems back to the 90โs when for 1 season only, they were in the league above us while we were in Division 3 under Lou. They were lording it about every week giving it the big โun being Pride of The Potteries etc. Talk about mouthy gobshits! Not bad for a team who have never ever played in the top flight of English football in all of their illustrious history, which they donโt like being reminded of! Thatโs why if your of my age we hate the fcukers with such passion. They deserve everything they get Wembley of The North your having a laugh, you could get their 4000 fans in one stand! I hope they go down to the National League asap. So Vale fans grabbing a once in lifetime opportunity of bragging rights has stayed with you for 30 years, tragic really. Yes because they didn't just grab it they tried to strangle us with it. Things used be pretty amicable in 70s early 80s pre season friendlies stoke one year vale next used to go them they were ok sign the odd player or two off them. Then it all changed when we crossed paths in the division they just became insufferable with potteries no1 club etc every opportunity to put us down people at work giving it the big un and even now right upto this season when they were going well they were giving it say swapping divisions potteries no1 club surfaces again, They simply hate us same for crewe stoke fans kept vale and crewe going by attending their matches especially crewe so they can go extinct for me hopefully they will Pipe down again now until we either struggle again or they come up again.

Blimey haha, I'd heard there was an NDA in place about him leaving but didn't know why. I'd heard the one about Carol and their former CEO too. Bet Darren Moore wonders what he's walked into!
