I have now accepted after years of following the potters that we are never going to be popular within the football world, and to be honest i absolutely love it.
But it isnt just footy, the city as a whole is hated, i work in brum and their opinion of stoke on trent is not great, how they can speak i don't know.
It is just narrow minded people and lazy journlists who spout this shite, they have never been to stoke before and never watch any footy outside of the top four.
I love being hated, its what we thrive on,and lets use it to f@ck everyone off.
Be loyal,Be Proud BE STOKE!!!!!!!!

I get slated by my Uni mates for being from Stoke... And where are they from? Carlisle, Billinge (where?), Leeds, Wigan, Bury and fucking Liverpool. They gang up on me for it...
And I fucking love it.

Loads of people don't even know where Stoke is, let alone Newcastle-UNDER-LYME - get fed up with people thinking that I'm a Geordie!

It's great. If we're hated, we're not a non-entity. That's the worst thing to be. Anybody from Norwich or Cheshire on here? OS.

I left Stoke about 17 years ago and I lived/worked all over since. Nobody has a good word. However, I live back in May Bank now and when I tell people in Swindon I drive back to newcastle in 2 hours they think I am Valentino Rossi (thick inbreds that they are) Any how, my stoke city mug gets plenty more smiles at the coffee machine nowadays so bollocks to em yoth. Just keep dipping thee bread and tackin no notice.

As you can see from my details I am a southern Stokie. My best mate Jon, an Arsenal season ticket holder, recently took his son up to Alton Towers as part of a few days holiday.
As he was in the area he decded to take a look at the Britannia (and bought me a Premier Potters mug) and have a mooch around Stoke.
He said he was both surprised and delighted at just how friendly Stoke folk were (although he was rather perplexed at being called a duck).
So, there you go, fuck what other folk say, whilst Stoke may suffer some hardships you are officially one of the friendliest places in Britain.
And don't forget I live just outside of London where even I find some of the people miserable, threatening, sullen, unfriendly scuzzbuckets.
You daren't look someone in the eye down here just in case they stab you.

Few years ago, went on holiday to Lindisfarne, off the North East coast - confused loads of Geordies (possibly not the hardest task in the world!) there telling them it had taken us 7 hours to get there from Newcastle.

And I fucking love it. Carlisle- Anywhere in Cumbria and you can call them sheepsh*ggers. Billinge - sounds like "bilge" the crappy water that has to be pumped from the bottom of boats. Leeds - Over-rated. Liverpool - That's ***ing rich, a scouser having a go. Wigan - Famous for a non-existent "pier" and being good at rugby (once). Bury. Small town near Manchester. There ya go. No need to feel inferior for being from Stoke at all!
