Chrimbo was fine thanks. Not a bbq on the beach but went for a swim at the pool and it was nice. Not that hot but still.

i can sympathise northwich i have been lucky and got tickets but i have mates who have been to every home game this season and not been able to get a ticket and these lads put up with all the shit we have seen in the last twenty years! like you say i wonder how many of our new friends have travelled all over the uk to places like exeter plymouth brentford hartlepool etc?
p.s. still think the club should have filled in the corner where the scoreboard is as soon as we clinched promotion i know it would only make 1,000 or so tickets available but that could be all it needed?

Roll on the Championship where you could get seatits the same for me too, i've had to pick my games carefully just lately because i'm a builder and work has gone tits up you cant get a job laying bricks now for love or money, my friggin dad has got a ticket though, yes fair enough he used to go in the 70's and 80's when stoke were good, but his excuse for not going in the game for 15 years or more is " extortionate ticket prices" my dads a hypocritical ****! ... so the ticket prices have fell now we're in the prem playing Man Utd have they dad  I've made a point of calling him Gerald over the past few days and he does'nt know why My dad is the original Gerald Pratt, because he's a fucking glory hunting twat! I might just rob his ticket outa his wallet and fuck off to the match!!!

I sympathise with all those who've been loyal to the club and have been an unable to get tickets for the glamour fixture, which would of been reward for all those who attended the less glamorous games against those mentioned above. The latest influx of fans are squirmy little individuals who have jumped on the bandwagon at the first hint of relative success. As a club we need as many people in the ground as possible, obviously, but had we got our arses into gear and had reliable records of people's purchasing histories we could have rewarded the proper supporters and left the gloryhunting wankers with their Sky remote.

I feel sorry for you guys, how many games do you normally go in a season? would it had been better for you to get a season ticket?

falkerz - if you spoke to him about stoke he knows it all, he's been about 3 times in the past 10 years and he has no excuse because he has a well paid steady job.
i can remember the cardiff play-off 2nd leg he said stoke would never win at cardiff and we were doomed, he had no evidence to base this on apart from the sentinel and teletext, i said we would win and he was gutted.

Its so annoying no doubt there will be loads of stokies giving shit fans abuse about them being gloryhunters, but we can hardly talk can we?? Where have they all come from?? Part of me (just a very small part mind) wants us to go down just so these gloryhunters will f**k off and I can get me seat back and arent surrrounded by these 'lifelong' phoney stoke fans singing city till i die |

I can't go either!!! I'm on-call for the Cardiac Unit, if we win I expect to be very busy!!!!! Heres hoping for a quiet day then at least I can watch it on Sky.
Gave my season ticket to my mate so at least my seat in The South Stand will be filled.
Go on the mighty Potters!!!!

I try to get to watch about 10 games a season and always boxing day if its at home. I'd love to be able to go every week and make full use of a season ticket but I just couldn't. And this is for you birly..........  |

I feel sorry for you guys, how many games do you normally go in a season? would it had been better for you to get a season ticket? after next season when my youth team leave youth at under 17's and I stop being chairman of a youth football club then I will go back to being a season ticket holder. I normally go about 12-15 home games, can't do midweek as I am coacing youth, and get to all the local away fixtures. Obviously not as hardy as the lads and lasses who go home and away all the time, but i did that in the late mid to late 70's and 80's, unfortunatley the mortage, wife and 3 kids and 180 kids from the village playing footie take a bit of time up these days  |
