Who Hates Garth Crooks?

[applemacman]

Annoying little man!

[y_oh_y_delilah]

Agree, if he crawled any further up his own arse, he'd disappear.

[Menorca Stokie]

He looks more like yoda than yoda.

Win the match they will Gary, win the match they will.

[Pedropotter]

And he speaks like the queen.

[lawrieleslie]

Garth Crooks is a Stoke legend imho. Scored 53 goals in 163 appearances for us. Went on to win 2 FA cup and EUFA Cup winners medals with Spurs and 1st black player to score in FA cup final and became PFA Chairman in 1988. Rightly awarded OBE in 1999 for services to football. So, no I don't hate Garth Crooks.

[Pedropotter]

But apart from 'Scored 53 goals in 163 appearances for us. Went on to win 2 FA cup and EUFA Cup winners medals with Spurs and 1st black player to score in FA cup final and became PFA Chairman in 1988. Rightly awarded OBE in 1999 for services to football' what has he achieved?.....

[kkkkken]

To talk like the Queen ? ;D

[tapeloop]

[Stoke_FaN_DaN]

i love him i do! wat a legend!

[daverichards]

if he'd had the decency to keep the accent he grew up with perhaps I wouldn't loath him and his forced posh talking mouth so much

[applemacman]

Ilford, probably something to do with all the "brown nosing" he's done at the FA

[funlovingexpress]

I take it he was an ex player of yours! He isn't much liked up here either. The way he continually harps on about the PFA when all you want to here is about real football.

[lilred18]

I went to the same school as him! He has done well for himself and I commend that, but the bloke has forgotten where he came from! Listen to him tomorrow on the box and hear him blatt on, lets see if he gives us a big up. I hear him every week and he makes me puke, his grass roots are here in the potteries and he never talks about it, very sad! I would love to stick one on all the bloody pundits tomorrow and beat the Geordie's, then someone just might take stoke on Trent seriously for once..

[RedandWhite4ever]

lilred 18.. Spot on.. As a footballer he was great. But come on Crooksey your roots are here and always will be..

[spitthedog]

HATE!!!!

a bit OTT old man!!!

he is a bit annoying, but i suggest you save your Hatred for someone who really deserves it.

he's hardly a child serial killer.............

[fuggers]

Perhaps moving down south changed his accent.

[mark71]

Is he still hanging out the back of Andy Peters?

[vientianescfc]

I expect to hear loud and clear over the half time summary tomorrow a rendition of 'Gareth Crooks you're a wanker, your're a wanker . ..'

Please! It'll make me smile that's for sure!

[mcscooby]

I like the man, when I was little and lived in the Abbey he used to come and visit his auntie Joyce who lived opposite me. He come out and have a kick-a-bout in the street with us little urchins. He was a nice guy!

[Deleted]

If this is turning into the Garth Crooks Confessional ... Then I'll admit that me old man played dinner-time sarny-box footie with a very young Crooks, while the old fella was painting Corporation housing around the Vic.

(... and has gone on about it ever since ... )

ah

[lordb]

perhaps the alleged racist abuse he received from @ least one fellow Stoke (born)player means he doesnt quite have the same affections for gods country as the rest of us?

He's on the BBC panel tommorow,he'l be positive towards Stoke,what more do you want Oatcakes stapled to his head?

[buddha]

if you hate garth crooks your obviously very young or dont no fuck all about the history of this club ! fucking pricks .

[KevinWhimper]

i do
he is a useless twat

[fcstoke]

Just a quick question, how old was he when he left Stoke?
