I have no issues with how Arnie spoke about the club or the fact that he give it the 'Irons' to the crowd. Ambition - seen much of that lately? He told it as he saw it, Hughes and the hierarchy got put in their place, he lined his pockets with his London transfer and gave us a right royal fucking which endeared him to the fans of his new club. I suppose if Berahino gives it large to the Baggies fans on Saturday we will all be embarrassed? I hope he gets a hat trick, pulls his cock out and starts windmilling to the South Stand. A 3-0 win and a two game ban will endear him to me No-one in our team can match up to Arnie's strength which is why our hard man Captain gave it the verbals as he went off. If he'd have turned around on him he would have shit his self.

I have always focused on goal difference at this time of the season rather than points. For me, it tells you a lot about whether a team may have been in a game.
At the moment our goal difference is worst in the league by some distance. We don't just lose, we get tonked on a regular basis and only ever win by the solitary goal. We have been one of the lowest scoring teams season after season whether it be under Hughes or Pulis but now our usual miserly defence is wide open, shipping goals at an average of >2 per game. We look unfit, we have no shape, no confidence and nothing to bring off the bench to address the weaknesses.
Unless our much maligned transfer team pull out at least 5 gems in the transfer window then I fear for us continuing at this level. I say 5 because I am convinced we will lose two of our stars in January.

Arnie took the piss and Shawx and Hughes giving it verbals are an embarrassment.
Hopefully he gets banned from the sideline. He’s no fucking use there anyway.

Out of the two I would give Potter a go.
My biggest concern would be whether the likes of Shaqiri would respect him. Mind you, if Shaqiri is ours on Feb 1 I will show my arse on Stephen Avenue.

The only logical conclusion is this man is playing to be fired.

Something inside of me would have died if that twat was appointed Stoke manager. I have an irrational hate of that man. Why ? Coz he did not select Ryan for England ?? It was the correct decision in actual fact He always looked down his nose at Stoke like we were something he wanted to get off his shoe. Putting Ryan on against Zlatan was not dissimilar to what Hughes has done to the young full back. He could have had a run three days earlier against the mighty San Marino to find his feet. Good man management to blood him against one of the best centre forwards of his time or did he just fancy making him look a cock?

Hope for the best. Expect the worst. I expect it to be vile tomorrow. Vile and nasty. Someone should launch something at The Snake. Maybe a minature Pottermus. A cold balti pie. Or a corner flag. It will last 5 minutes tops & that will be it. Fans have gone soft. I don’t fancy us at all tomorrow. I think Arnautovic will fucking destroy us. We have no defender who can cope with him.

If that's what you reckon then lump on the FA Cup win and a relegation bro. Got to admit I wobbled a bit at the final whistle tuesday... Back at it ready for saturday nah though. Ktf Well as you know, a loud mouth Canadian Liverpool fan bet me 500$ that we would go down opening day. He is such a pompous c@nt I took the bet. I am honestly considering taking a 5/1 we go down to hedge the unthinkable... how long do I wait. I can't bet against us and I feel it's almost my penance to KTF . Will decide on Sunday after we lick wounds or jump with joy. Not sure I will even have joy, be a very conflicted feeling if we sneak a win. I’d get $200 on at 5’s cause it could be a while before the odds get better. If we stay up you’ll be good for $300 & be happy as fuck, we go down and you have $500 to get hammered.

Arnie v Pieters?.................is he playing on the right for West Ham? I honestly have no idea how we will be able to contain him if he is remotely on form. It'll be like watching Fuller against the Baggies

No comment pissed me off more from Hughes than the one where he said there has always been an 'undercurrent' towards him. At that point I called him an arrogant, hard done to, prick and I'll stand by that post. I should have included 'precious' given the fact that some plonker rolling up in a yellow van 5 years ago still seems to influence his relationship with the support.
There has been lots to like about him but his failure to put his hand up and admit that his issues are self created is narking me. If it turns out that he is part of a greater Stoke City experiment whereby he is given players and asked to coach them by the likes of Cartwright and Scholes then I would have an element of sympathy for him. If that is the case, I would have had more respect for him if he had walked out and exposed the situation.
Based on the current facts, he appears to be the architect of his own downfall and having digs at supporters, as he has now done on a few occasions, will not help the atmosphere.

I had no issue letting him go, I never rated him.
What was ridiculous was not replacing him and giving Johnson an extension when it was clear last year that his legs had gone.

Feeling the pressure if he’s resorting to this shit! Absolute bollocks Mr Hughes. A lot of fans were wary when you joined given the shit show you left at QPR but pretty much everyone gave you support. You produced football that brought pride & hope back to the club. We almost got media recognition as Stokealona. You, yourself have fucked it up with two years of experimenting and signing players we didn’t need. You’ve bust a defence that was as tight as a nuns chuff! Arrogant, hard done to, prick !!

So is anyone actually going to this one? Who's got tips for a first trip to Turf Moor? If its anything like it used to be my tip would be to keep your head down

If Pulis came back he’d most likely relegate us out of spite the toxic twat.

I'm not convinced that a new manager needs to can loads of players, he just needs to understand what they can do.
Starting with 4 at the back would make an immediate difference.

It's a shame it's ended like this.
He was like a breath of fresh air in the first two years but the team have looked disjointed for way too long now. Something in the system is bust & it's not a simple fix.

Edwards interview says he knew he was in the team yesterday.
Is it just me that thinks that is not much notice? They’d have been travelling in the afternoon you would think?

They won’t sack him till Wednesday at least. His 3 person set up protects him well.
Coates will need to fire & have a man ready to take the helm straight away.

The weird thing is that Spurs haven’t been that good going forward.
They’ve missed shitloads & still dicked us 5-1
36 goals conceded in 16 games.....

I wouldn't quite go as far as saying he's a legend, but he's absolutely a model pro. He is a shining light for other footballers, and a rare breed in the modern game. Unfortunately, with football going the way it is heading, model pros like Geoff will become the exception rather than the norm. I honestly think it has a lot to do with the fact that he is an American. He's playing at the highest level possible, earning a fortune, in a game that until very recently was a nothing sport in the US. He appreciates everything he has unlike many of the shithouses that have strolled around in the Premier league.

That looks a cracking badge. When did you send them out Greenhoff and from where so I have a better idea of when to check the mailbox? Posted last Wednesday, mate. My guess is that the Pony Express has currently got about as far as Field... Hopefully it got through before the mudslide I just noticed the dj must be old skool, got his Canadian version of Stone Island coat on
