I'm surprised they find time to slag off Stoke in between adverts for van insurance and flids ringing up to complain about people not being white. Don't forget the hours of chat between the hosts boasting about the freebies they have managed to screw out of station sponsors. Dorksport is simply The Sun in a verbal diarrhea form.

I actually like Adrian. Think he is witty, asks the sort of questions fans would ask, and looks like he loves a bit of banter, as well as being a true supporter himself..
Let’s be known for having a good sense of humour, and enjoy the banter..
I am loving the piss taking. I have had a bet with 2 Liverpool fans today… Started off me betting a fiver on Stoke beating them, ended up both of them agreeing that if Stoke get a result, they would pay me £20 each, tell everybody in the office they were gay(even though they aren’t) and be my personal brew makers for a year. If Liverpool win I don’t have to pay a thing - how cool is that, wouldn’t get bets like that if I supported Chequeski..
I would love it, if Liverpool had 40 attempts on goal, only managed to score 1, and then Rory scored 2 in the last minute, with direct throw-ins – bloody love it ;D

I have to say, long ball you might be, boring you're not. Its not easy on the eye to watch, but I've never been so expectant when I've seen a throw-in given.
As a fairly young Baggies fan, Stoke are the first team I've really hated, because Villa are too far ahead of us, and Wolves are just...shit really. But I'm not going to spew a load of shit about you being boring because its simply not the case. I don't like your football, but its functional, and it does create close games because of your ability to score against the run of play. This makes for more exciting matches.
I would say good luck for the season, but honestly I hope you go down. Still..enjoy the ride. =]

Just E Mailed this to the idiot.
Stoke City Football Club.
Dearest Adrian, Whilst the vast majority of football fans must simply bow down to your superior knowledge about the game, it's rather silly to vent your "knowledge" on Stoke City FC.
We earned our place in the Premiership and have fought well as a team against established opposition and yet, we find pundits, journalists and media people targeting such things like Rory Delap's throw ins and the direct play the team adapts?
With 17 goals in 4 games - compared to the likes of Derby last year and teams such as Spurs this year, you can't say - even as a neutral - the Stoke games haven't been entertaining?
The club have spent 20 million trying to bolster the squad and considering the record before that was 1.2 million on Leon Cort?? Speaks for itself really.
Anyway, the reason for my e mail Ginge is to pass on the thanks and gratitude for your contributions in making Stoke City even more unpopular... That's the way (ah ha, ah ha) we like it (ah ha, ah ha) - Keep it up Ginger Spice - you are doing us a huge favor because we want to stay under the radar and not noticed for anything good..... We like being underdogs... or just "dogs" in your mind, that way we'll slip through your doom and gloom net at the end of the season and stay where we are - Ahem - In the Premiership!
Pundits - Don't like it up em eh Ginge.
Lots of love x
Paul Mac - Stoke City.

It's irony back at them Spit meole mate. I have moaned about the media hatred towards us but, d'ya know what - It's best to go along with it and they'll eventually get bored. We are their "Boo Boys" so to speak and they can get on with it. There's absolutely no way they or anyone else will spoil it for us this season as we watch our lads battle it out against some incredible opposition. Like Tony Pulis says - It's fantastic being in the Prem and this is what we've worked for over the last 23 years. It's here now - Let's have a great time and enjoy the ride.... even if we do get relegated - The club should always be better off from this experience if continued to be managed and run properly. The Home crowds are simply unbelievable! Lovin it! Mac

Then you got all 'prawn sandwich' and stuck up about us. Must be your 'johnny come lately' Premiershit fans, rather than the supporters who stuck with you through our shared 'dark times.'

TalkRubbish haven't got a clue. The two games at The Brit have been among the best the Prem has had to offer so far this term. Goals, comebacks, penalties. Like a footballing pantomime. If the knobs on TalkRubbish want scrappy 1-0 wins each week, let 'em have them. I like watching games of football that are contested for whole 90 minutes. 2-0 down to Everton...teams would have rolled over and gone for damage limitation tactics and that is why Hull got spanked 5-0 at Wigan. Stoke battled and battled.

On a point of principle. I don't read the red-tops like the Sun/Mirror/Star unless there's **** all else to read in the barber's waiting room, so I should really apply the same principle to my radio habits. And on the issue of liking to be hated - I think that's what motivated people like Durham. I'll stick my neck out and say that people with red hair tend to get some stick at an early age (for whatever reason). Most (and I mean MOST) get over it and go on to be normal, balanced exemplary people - like Dave Kitson for example. On the other hand, I am convinced that some develop some kind of subconscious "Victim Syndrome" and seek to provoke the same abuse that they got as a child, because they love to be hated. And what better position to do this from than being a broadcaster? Access to a large audience and safe behind a microphone. That's why Adrian "Look at meeeeeee - I'm on the radio" Durham is the way he is, I'm sure. Maybe we should take pity on him and send loads of "sympathetic" messages - that would **** him up. ;D Oh and I also find it a bit rich that Arsenal supporters were txting in Abuse. Arsenal ("Boring Boring Arsenal" / "1-0 to the Arsenal" not so long ago)- this is the original "Digital Football" club FFS.

On the basis that saturday's match at Anfield is the talksh*t commentary game, perhaps our vocal chords could be used to provide a few 'complimentary' words to both Durham & his station?
"Adrian Durham you're a w*nker, you're a w*nker" for example.

"Adrian Durham you're a w*nker, you're a w*nker" for example. Good idea. But then again, it's that "Do you play into his hands" thing isn't it? In that typical media personality "need for love and attention" way, he'd probably like it. Mind you, 27,000 singing it when TS cover a home game would be even better to hear! Actually - what would be even funnier now I think about it is if the Liverpool fans actually joined in as well - maybe we should remind them of what he thought about Jamie Carragher? ;D

Now that would be worthwhile - the whole of Anfield united in voice against that idiot - however, I totally agree with you NNH regarding the playing into his hands bit, but hey it wouldn't half sound good.
To be repeated at every ground in the country where the pr*ck has needlessly criticised clubs and / or their fans - apart from Newcastle!

I'll be singing it without a doubt, he was over the top last night and was very childish. I can take a joke but he went too far, even my missus thought it was ridiculous and commented that she couldn't see him taking it that far with anyone else. Ian Wright mentioned that Durham hates Stoke during the programme as well. Don't forget to jam the text lines with "Adrian Durham, you're a wanker" on 81089 this afternoon.

Seriously, what the fuck are you doing listenign to this gormless piece of right wing hoseshit anyway?
Fat Tories dribbling on about how everything outside the south-east is shit...I'm amazed there is such a groundswell of stokies who would let this right-wing wank into their lives.
The best thing you can do, as fat twat Gaunt found out when he worked for the BBC, is stop listening. Then they get sacked, and you have the last laugh.

I'm a Glasgow Rangers supporter and we got exactly the same stick all through last season. Anti football, negative even Scotland's shame.
Just for info we won two trophies last season, took the league to the last day and were runners up in the UEFA Cup, not bad for anti football.
Let them have there say, all that matters is YOUR club and survival as a minimum.
Good Luck This Season

Stevo,
The only shame was the way Rangers got stitched up at the end of the season....weren't you playing 15 games in 30 days at one point?
I'd take UEFA cup finalists as a positive, and i'm starting to hate the way Celtic are held up as this great thing - i hope United fucking batter them in the CL (and that's saying something)

How many of the 'football experts' predicted we'd get promoted before last season???
Incase you are wondering what the answer to that question is .....
..... fucking none of them. Not fucking one.
So the last thing I spend my time doing is listening to 'football experts' crapping on.
Getting paid for the radio (or TV) equivalent of overhearing gloryhunters talking shit in the pub.

I'd take UEFA cup finalists as a positive, and i'm starting to hate the way Celtic are held up as this great thing - i hope United fucking batter them in the CL (and that's saying something) I can't remember how many games we eventually played but you're not far off the mark. The SPL actually extended the league by 4 days and got pelters for it. If they hadn't Rangers would have had to play Saturday, Monday, Wednesday & Sunday with the Wednesday game being the UEFA Cup final. Unbelieveable. Don't get me wrong it wasn't great to watch but we played to our stregnths at the time and took some big scapls along the way, Lyon, Werder Bremen & Fiorentina. This season it's a complete change. Pumped out of Europe to a pub team but then investment in the squad and we're looking very good and playing great football. The point is you guys would probably prefer "sexy" football, but survive this year, bank the cash and build a team that will play the way you want and deserve.
