Something has happened in a positive direction since Tricky Dicky left and the Stalwart no nonsense Mr Walter’s arrived. He has helped the fractious team members and supporters into a single objective - I have to say similar to the Pulis mentality of they shall not pass. He recognises we have a good manager and potentially a great manager & management team. So don’t let this slip away and get behind the team who are now stating to become a team instead of a load of individuals. Exciting times ahead and glad I’m in for the long haul with my season ticket

Well done all Stoke Players, even those who had been written off before the game started. But even more well done to Schumacher and lets just get behind him and the team on MOnday

Err - what was that you were saying boys? Think my post was spot on and I wasnt blaming proper fans just those negative losers who just seem to want Schumacher to fail so they can say - Told you so - So take the hint you negative losers - either go up the Vale or just piss off

What a load of defeatest posts we have from "stoke supporters" - I just hope you all eat your hats if we get something out of this game - With Berger suspended, Pearson & Gooch out for rest of season he has to bring in Squad players and its up to them to grasp the moment. Defense is same so no reason why we should not try and keep a clean sheet. He has picked midfielders who will tackle back rather than go wandering off and not get back. The only problm for me is Mmaee who has not got a pressing game or a tackle in him, and I'm not sure he has a goal in him either. Apart from that I am not sure he could do anything else. So get behind the team instead of doing the easy thing and slagging them off. Shame on you

We have to stick with SS - the overcrowded squad of players we have are not his - whatever happens changing Manager yet again is not the answer this time. Let him build a side and get rid of the faint hearted wannabees. Start with Mmaee, one of a few who have let us down. Did not go unnoticed that when Pearson & Campbell were unused subs on the bench they left the benc( and walked down the tunnel before the end like two naughty children. That’s th3 sort of attitude we can do without.

just for the immediate run in, we should play like an away team keeping it tight at the back and counter attack. Lets face it we haven't scored playing any other way so for me its needs must until safety is achieved. Then summer & next season we can recruit to fit the team he wants to play how he wants because at the moment its a load of MIS Fits

The sun will still rise in the morning and it will go dark in the evening - whatever happens will not really affect your life, will it? Disappointing about the maximum but there are other more important things to worry about. What’s all the fuss about?

Time for no nonsense football - forget trying to play attacking football - Do what the others do against us - Counter attacking football with emphasis on not looding then grabbing opportunities 1-0 will do

Technical Director? Job Description is....Don't interfere with Managers decisions and keep all the non footballing shit off the managers back - Do you need an ex footballer to do that or a very good Manger/Director in that field

His KPI's were not up to scratch - The Key Performance Indicator showed poor performance from his guidance leaving us near relegation so hopefully he fell on his sword without too much fuss and very little compensation.

How the hell did he get injured unless one of his team mates kicked up the arse to get him moving?

Bowler sliced through us when he played for Blackpool and should have been on our loan radar from Notts Forest way back then. he's a proper right winger and can get around any full back. Certainly worrying with our left back situation - maybe double cover on that wing.

Forget three at the back, we have to go 4-4-2 with defenders defending first and foremost. Then when we do have the ball the fullbacks move up the two wide middle attempt to go down the wing and support whoever is up front - think it needs to back to basics at this point in time.

So he didn’t score amongst the youngsters - not a great sign of confidence in him.

So TP football was boring at times but very direct and always in a game it was definitely a case of £be careful what you wish for" and look what we have since apart from a brief courtship with a few prima donnas until the wheels came off and no backbone to get us out of trouble - because some dickhead had had got rid of the spine including Huth, Whelan, Walters etc

Just Seen Campbell & Pearson sliding down the tunnel - probably because they have been overlooked on subs bench - not exactly team spirit building - mard arses

If he does get a chance in the team again, he must play out of his skin- like some of those videos - he owes Schumacher, the club and the fans big time. It’s down to him now - we could have a decent team even a class of 24 or maybe 25 with all these young players playing as a proper team gelling and growing together and Schumacher is the Manager to do just that.

Leicester are a good team and yes they knew we were not going to park the bus at home, so they have th3 players and a “team” that know each other having played together a great deal more than most.
So to summarise stoke - I’ve played a lot of football with some good defenders and this defence is rubbish. Players like Campbell, Mmaee want to have the ball set up for them , without workin* for it. They need to go and SS knows it - you saw today the top teams work hats to get the ball when they don’t have it - they don’t give it away easily - SS know what h3 wants but at the moment he does not have the players to do that. Stay up and we can build for next season as this season has gone

this is this is the start of Schumacher asserting his authority as a manager/chief coach. About time someone got a grip of these highly paid maid arsed players who think they can take a ride. The dressing room is now beginning to get sorted. Staring with Mmaee, Campbell etc - very very well done manager

Bit late to announce that, when it should have been around 1st January - SCFC sale of the season - it’s obvious that some of the team are not buying in to “hard work” Mmaee top of that list

Yes forget this window - last summer and AN + The Recruitment Team + Martin not done a great job. Lets see where we are come end of May ..... and yet again we start again but hopefully those that The Manager does not favour - can be offloaded either sold or returned. Then the merry go round of players who can play a forward looking pressing game and hopefully a couple of players who know where the opposition Net lies, can be imbedded into the team.
