They were not dug up they were posted on the BBC for all to see and reply to. As to whether she said them last week or yesterday isnt important she said what she said at a critical time for our club.You may be happy with influencial broadcasters and pundits to slate/slag off the club at such a time but Im not. You are right. She should have said that Stoke are in a “false position” and that under the supreme leadership of Josh Laurent, who will one day join the likes of Ronaldo and Messi in the G.O.A.T discussion, we will thrash Plymouth and survive easily. Whatever you unfunny clown.

Regardless of whether she is correct in her opinion or not isnt the point.The point is she should keep such controversial opinions which may or may not have a detrmental effect to herself.We need all hands on deck at the moment not somone spouted off without any thought of consequences. One more thing the comment "If anyone feels that my comments are wrong so be it" stinks of smugness and arrogance.If I never see or hear from her again I wont be upset.See ya Ange. Utter bollocks, I'm afraid. It was from something released last Sunday in a segment on a podcast. Someone hasn't just Skyped her yesterday asking for her opinion on Josh Laurent and she's slated him (which she hasn't anyway, really). The problem isn't with the comment/s made on the podcast at all (on reflection, some are quite harsh and I'm surprised they passed the editing if much is needed for a generally tame/jokey fan podcast), it's the fact that someone at RS has decided to release it days later in an apparently inflammatory manner. The comments, given the amount of people who actually probably listen to the podcast, would have disappeared into obscurity had someone not decided to dig them up last night. They were not dug up they were posted on the BBC for all to see and reply to. As to whether she said them last week or yesterday isnt important she said what she said at a critical time for our club.You may be happy with influencial broadcasters and pundits to slate/slag off the club at such a time but Im not.

One more thing the comment "If anyone feels that my comments are wrong so be it" stinks of smugness and arrogance.If I never see or hear from her again I wont be upset.See ya Ange. The absolute state of this post. Firstly - “such controversial opinions” 😂😂😂 Secondly - so if somebody on a podcast has a “correct” opinion on Stoke but it may have a “detrimental effect”, they should……? Not speak? Lie? Not go on the podcast at all? What about in general, can they speak to people in the pub? On here, are “detrimental” opinions allowed? Shall we have a look through your posting history? Thirdly - do you know what the words smugness and arrogance mean? She’s saying she accepts it if people disagree with her comments, it’s literally the opposite of arrogance Finally - “If I never see or hear from her again I wont be upset”. You do know there are actions you can take to realise this dream of yours? E.g. not clicking on threads with her name in or listening to podcasts on which she appears? And guess what I dont agree with your passsive agreessive post either pal. The quotes were published on the BBC website for all and sundry to see and comment on,which I have.She should have kept her gob shut end of.I totally stand by my post. Happy days.x

Just spoken to a Plymouth lad, he’s buzzing for tomorrow but worried shitless.!!!! He’d take a point now.!! There’s 300/400 Plymouth lads coming up on private coaches expecting the Stoke lads to come out..!!! I told him to be prepared to be disappointed.!!! This is the game they’ve been looking forward ever since SS left.. They will give him shit all game … I really hope we show up …. Their support the other night was superb they never let up singing and supporting their team,also they didnt concentrate most of their songs about their rivals either ,they just got behind the team.And guess what ,no once did your hear any booing or groans of discontent.And they were not playing that well either,maybe we should give it a try..

At the end of the day the team tomorrow needs our full support I’m not interested in anything else but tomorrow.So what if we have been rubbish it doesn’t or shouldn’t matter we need to get behind them. All these who are saying for numerous reasons that they are not going no one is interested we all already know why.Can we have some positivity or is that just not the Stoke On Trent way.

So you never go the games anyway,only when we are winning,the weathers great,everyone is sober,no working class youths and in a modernised pro western stadium . I'm going to get accused of entering into a dick measuring contest here but I would suggest I've earned the right to justify my irregular attendance when questioned on the subject. I've been to enough games (home and away) since February 1970 to feel I have an opinion that's valid and worth expressing here. I think my best attendance record for a season is 50+ games during the Macari years in the old Division 3. Attended every home game in the 84/5 'Holocaust' season and was one of the hardy 4,500 who turned up at the Vic to see us lose to Norwich. Nearly lost my job by going to watch a pre season friendly at Witton Albion. So I certainly wasn't the fair weather supporter you might be suggesting. I've done my time. Paid my dues etc, etc. A good part of the reason for my stance is most probably because I've gotten older and like many of my age, I've found more productive things to do with my time and additionally, I don't have the energy and inclination that I once did to tackle the potential conflict, inconvenience and hassles involved in attending the games regularly - and that's before the overhyped, overpaid bunch of talent free fannies currently purporting to represent Stoke City take the pitch, which worsens my mood aplenty and is a further deterrent to attendance. It wasn't always the case. During the tenures of Messrs Ball, Paddon, Bates and Kamara (and others), the team was shite, the results dire and the football dreadful. But that wasn't the be all and end all of the whole match day experience, which was generally pleasurable to some degree, usually due to factors other than the game itself. That feeling has now has pretty much completely died for me - and apparently a good number of others, as can be seen on another thread where posters were discussing what they had been enjoying on Saturday afternoons instead of pitching up at the Betty. What would I do if, by some miracle, the club started to enjoy some success? Very likely the same as I do now, picking and choosing games or getting reluctantly dragged along by friends or family members. Watching Stoke was a habit for me once. That habit is now broken, I fear. You didnt say any of that in your original post ,you just slated all and sundry even our fans (which I also do).I am also of a similar age and yes I get where you are coming from.I will be making an effort this Saturday because the club I love need me there,or at least I hope they do.

Can't speak for anyone else but I have no inclination whatsoever to part with approx £100 of my hard earned to watch that festering pile of shite of a 'team', a collection of posers, losers and has beens impersonating professional footballers in a building reminiscent of a Soviet era prison, whilst surrounded by assorted chavs, drunks and morons. This wildly unpredictable weather doesn't make the endless hike to the Trentham Lakes Lubyjanka much more palatable either. Does that help answer your question? You're welcome. So you never go the games anyway,only when we are winning,the weathers great,everyone is sober,no working class youths and in a modernised pro western stadium .

Are we just not passionate enough to support our team through thick and thin? And boy do they need our full backing on Saturday. It’s like we’ve better utterly shit, totally mismanaged and ran by a bunch of idiots for a good 7/8 years now. What do people seriously expect? I actually think we’ve done well to keep the crowd numbers where they are when you compare it to what we got before the PL. That we still average above 20k surprises me. I understand and agree with your points but doesnt that apply tolets say 85% of professional teams with just the few having success. It is as others have ponted out a huge game for us and we need to win, the consequences are not worth thinking about,and this fragile lot will need our full backing for 90 mins.

We went there early last year,I thought it was average/ok, definitely had worse.Customer service doesnt really bother that much so long as the order and food are ok.What I will say is that regarding c/s a couple of the local Indians we have been to recently have been very good indeed and for me to notice then they have gone above and beyond. If you want a good curry, go to the restaurants in Shelton like Mirchi or Lahori Kebabish. The ones like Basmati that cater to the post-pub and Tikka Massala crowd have little respect for their customers and treat all diners as cattle herd, and the food is often bland anyway. Youd'd get better from a jar of Sharwoods. Totally agree,there a few other more "traditional" takeaways/cafe/restaurants dotted around the area too.

I dont consider it a failure if we stay up do you? yes , he was bought in to improve us , he hasn’t Seeing as I beleive we were going down before he came I would say that he has improved the side on the basis we have stayed up and not got relegated. Agree?

Any other club would be giving him his marching orders at the end of the season. Everyone rambles on about his time at Plymouth, a team he inherited and didn't need to do much with. He comes to a struggling club and shows every bit of naivety you would expect, only issue is he isn't learning, he keeps making the same cock ups game after game. He simply isn't a very good manager to suggest anything else is remarkable. Whats remarkable to me is that you actually believe what you have written.

A person who pisses off governments who then use evey available means to stamp out/surpress /ostracize and kill the person or persons ideology. This applies to all countries differenty so peoples opnions vary from country to country to whatever they have been indoctrinated to believe.I have noticed recently that the description in our country has altered through the media and governemnt over the years.It now seems that terrorism is an act upon civillians,that is not wholly true imo and is just another tool/excuse to enforce more laws and as always more restrictions on our daily life,tighting the stranglehold grip on our freedoms. Dont forget its for YOUR protection Other forms of terrorism are avaialble.

Any examples of bad ( or above what is expected) experiences of eating out? Also of complaining? I went for a breakfast last week, somewhere I had been about five times before, same breakfast ( pancakes and fruit). Usually consistently brilliant. This time, not the same at all...actually half the size and half the fruit. The explanation was that people qwre returning so much of it, uneaten , they decided to cut down?????, Isn't one problem when eating out, you don't actually know what you are getting until it comes. Technically I got what I ordered Went to Basmati for a curry the other week based on excellent reviews. It was terrible and I wrote a scathing review on Tripadvisor. I write a lot of Tripadvisor reviews about restaurants and hotels, most positive ones but my main bugbear is poor customer service. We went there early last year,I thought it was average/ok, definitely had worse.Customer service doesnt really bother that much so long as the order and food are ok.What I will say is that regarding c/s a couple of the local Indians we have been to recently have been very good indeed and for me to notice then they have gone above and beyond.
