Even though the club have got reduced prices for this game I stil dont see there being a really big crowd for this game the reason for this is because of the opposition not being that great. If i was stoke i would of offered all season ticket holders the chance to either get in free or maybe pay a couple of quid to get in and then none season ticket holders would pay a bit more say a fiver to a tenner. The game would also of been good to of charged a fiver to get in as i doubt we will have any promotions games this year.
The game should be a good game as we will probably have the new signings playing at home for the first time yet we wont get a very big crowd in i reckon maybe 7-8000 max
thoughts?

Agree, probably be a similar crowd to that of the Villa game last year.
Could be wrong though.

there are never big crowds for friendlys. 12k max but had they of done an offer for season ticket holders where they could get in for free or for a couple of kid im sure most season ticket holders would of gone. i know i would of. with this being a very special season for stoke and its going to cost some people a hell of lot of money to go the games this year. This would of been a way to of shown the season ticket holders a bit of gratitude for paying all that money for a season ticket

not doubting the offer, but letting in people for free, means employing more people therefore losing more money.its only £12 anyways.

Would HAVE, would HAVE, for fucks sake, not 'would of'. Does no fucker actually know how to speak English any more? And then people wonder why there's a shortage of good jobs round here. I for one wouldn't employ anybody who couldn't spell, write and speak reasonably grammatically correct English, as anything other than a fucking shelf-stacker.
Nothing personal, like.

I reckon about 95% of people of people think it's 'would of' as opposed to 'would have'.

Does dialect come into account in spoken lexicon? Such as, would you only employ me as a shelf stacker for my Potteries omission of the infinitive "to"? For instance, "I'm going the toilet", I know perfectly well that this is a non-standard verbal form, however I would never write it in such a way. Actually, are you hiring? I need a job.

While it is never advisable to use the word "never" when it comes to English grammar rules, many grammarians still considered it unacceptable to start a sentence with and, but or because. Doing so creates a sentence fragment, not a complete sentence. And, but and because are used primarily to join two independent phrases together and create a relationship between them.

I for one wouldn't employ anybody who couldn't spell, write and speak reasonably grammatically correct English, as anything other than a fucking shelf-stacker. 'Anymore' is actually the correct term terminology for that sentence, as a pose to 'Any more' The difference in meaning considered useful by the third camp is that "anymore" is an adverb meaning "nowadays" or "any longer", while "any more" can be either adverb plus adjective, as in "I don't want any more pie", or adjective plus noun, as in "I don't want any more."
The difference between the two meanings is illustrated in the sentence: "I don't buy books anymore because I don't need any more books."Have some smite you hypocritical, self righteous prick

I did say reasonably grammatically correct; i.e. good enough to be understood fully by any English speaker. Anyway, do as I say, not as I do! Cheeky shower of twats!!
