They are someone's son or daughter, but if they were mine, I'd be telling them to stick their degree, and get a real job. It's painful. "Cops descend on Blurton estate as bells heard near church" "Stokies swoop to try out Stoke's newest chip shop (which by the way is reasonably priced, 8 out of 10!)" "Watch as Eddie Hall fills his tank up at Tescos" At least you don't have to pay for it any more. Don't forget the regular updates if Homes Under the Hammer are in Stoke. Perhaps Martin Roberts has shares in Reach

Rumours circulating that Nish Kumar's made a funny joke. Seems a bit far fetched for me

Taofifenua avoids a red card after a high tackle for France last night. Mmmmm......🤔 cracking match last night Urugay made a decent game of it but ran out of steam at the end. their disallowed try was a bit harsh. saw them given Only just seen the result as I was out, I did expect it to be more one sided than that

"This shop is targeted at black women. They sell all stuff for black women. We're the ones who come here and buy their stuff, but they don't respect us... They have no right to treat people like that." Strange how the vast majority of black women who, presumably, pay for their goods didn't have an issue at this store previously. Otherwise, why would it be so popular amongst their community? Commit a crime, paint yourself as the victim. Black privilege

I think man was a bit of a stretch for him. Looks like a load of young twats on their school holidays. Well in my school holidays we built bases and did donuts on BMXs. Basically we weren't horrible destructive cunts.

Sunderland double ours. We're not a big club, sorry we're just not. We'd like to think we are because we're stoke fans, we've spent ten years in the top division in the past fifty years, we've also spent a lot in the third tier and second tier. We've won Jack shit apart from the autoglass trophy, twice. We're an attractive proposition because we're rich not because we're a big club. The only place we're a big club is in Stoke-on-Trent totally totally agree, we are a very small club trying to compete in a area where we have top premier clubs only a few miles away, its the same argument what is a big club, is it fan base, is it size of stadium, is it history, is it what the club has achieved, everyone will have a different take on it. My personal view is fan base and potential to expand that base easy way to measure it is season ticket sales and how many on the waiting list Very small club 😂

Where have I written him off? I have high expectations that's all. Unrealistic expectations, given how new this team is. At what point do you think he should start getting better results and pushing the side towards the top six?

Just for clarity, in case anyone thinks I was telling Salop to “piss off”🤣 it’s what the grandad used to say when he opened the front door to someone on Bread. Raised a titter as an 8 year old or whatever I was😉 Where's me tea?

No late night shopping anymore either, which seems about right given that most bus services knock off at 7pm.
I'm meeting my mate after work tomorrow up Hanley for a curry and a few pints and it'll be interesting to see what it's like on the night they used to have late night shopping. I'll be forced to get a taxi home too, as I'll be out until the crazy time of 10pm.
God knows what people from outside the area make of Hanley if they come to visit

Bread was horrendous crap Wasn't Victor Maguire ( McGuire maybe) in it? One of those actors who gets wider every new thing he makes, must be all that Haribo he eats in those ads. I remember him in a show I think was called 'What now?' That used to on late at night, possibly a Phil Redmond thing that was actually ok at the time . Never met anyone else who remembers it I reckon Haribo put a curse on him for when every advert is played, he puts on weight from phantom calories. He was in every episode of Goodnight Sweetheart but I remember him being in the Sean Hughes Show He was one of the villagers in The Woman in Black too. Only spotted it the other week

Our national anthem is shite! No passion Sang out of time Too slow. Jealous of the Scots anthem, and the Welsh too, proper passion, gets the hairs standing up. gets the atmosphere going! ours makes me want a kip! Cant think of another nation with an anthem as uninspiring as ours. Lichtenstein Northern Ireland

I agree, the current anthem just doesn’t sit right for a sports team. It doesn’t feel right singing an anthem about one person! Ok they are our ruler but we need an anthem that is far more inclusive for a sports team and their millions of supporters around the country. I’d be 100% behind a change to Land of Hope and Glory or I vow to thee my country. GSTK as many have pointed out just doesn’t get you going like many other nations anthems seem to. PS please don’t direct me to the scraggly haired man being blown away during euro96, it’s one example in about 200 games I’ve witnessed. They most certainly are not our rulers! Rulers (for want of a better word) should be voted in. Agree with everything else you wrote though.

Cant think of another nation with an anthem as uninspiring as ours. It's not even the English anthem, it's the anthem of the British state. Hard to get behind when you're a republican too. It needs to be- dare I say it- more inclusive.

People forget that France were largely also rans before 1998 (they have had the advantage of hosting a lot more tournaments than us too). In fact, when France 98 started the locals were fairly indifferent to their national side. Before 98 France had one tournament win, Euro's in 84, exactly the same as England. Two also rans? I'm well aware of who has won what and when. My point was that France were hardly habitual challengers pre-1998.

'Delilah why' said 'Southgate is the best England Manager we've had for decades. Perhaps only 2nd to Ramsey in the all time list.' I'm close to agreeing with this. I think Sven Goran was better, and the caretaker Joe Mercer might have been if given a proper chance Not Venables?

So you're for legalising all drugs then Paul? Even the class A addictive, fuck up your health and risk the lives of others kind? You happy to see people legally buying drugs that inhibit their ability to drive, communicate, act normal? I'm ok with legalising medicinal purpose drugs, but not legalising recreational ones. Like alcohol? Not quite the same is it, you could function and do your job after a couple of pints on your lunch break (unless you were driving obviously), it's not comparable with dropping a couple of Es...

Do you not remember the regular "1 win in 9", "3 wins in 17", "9 wins in 26" threads under MON? The FA Cup and League Cup wins were deemed surplus to requirements............. "8 losses in 12 league games" "2 wins in 12 league games" Oh wait nevermind, wrong manager. These dour Celts are all much of a muchness

I know its UK betting odds but I dont like seeing us as favourites at all. If only we could win one tournament in my lifetime I would party like its 19999999 I despise France for all the wins they have had the past 20 years despite not really being a football first nation Why was I born an English man and Stokie?? One league Cup in 72 and World Cup in 66. Maybe im the problem? Being born in 78 People forget that France were largely also rans before 1998 (they have had the advantage of hosting a lot more tournaments than us too). In fact, when France 98 started the locals were fairly indifferent to their national side.
