Border line libellous I would say:
"The idea for Hughes will be simple; rough Arsenal up, be physical and hope for a reaction from their players which could result in bookings, a sending off and subsequently a numerical advantage.
It’s a fairly underhand way to go about a football match but it’s something that Stoke are well suited to doing and it’s more than likely already been discussed this week."

There is nothing new about Arsenal having one of the worst disciplinary records in 'The Prem'. I checked the red cards since Stoke were promoted and the two Clubs were level but taking this season into account Arsenal are worse than Stoke.
Interestingly, if every time Scheshney had been sent off for bringing down a player going through on goal one could add six more red cards(or more) to the Gooners tally. Referees must be blind when their goalie brings down a player in a goal scoring position!

Media will ignore the present in favour of the past, Stoke have never been overly physical, the way some managers/the media talk about us anyone would think we're gladiators hell bent on removing heads
I wish i could say it's getting boring now, but truth is it's been boring since it started, hopefully we show Arsenal up and play football on Sunday with no stand out bad tackles for them to talk about

I really don't care what some tinpot Southern News Reporter thinks. When we beat them, they'll be looking for cheap cliche excuses about how we bullied them.
Don't care. I want 3 points.

As the Beastie Boys said "You've got to fight for the right to party". Nothing new in this certainly not underhand. But talk about getting your excuses in early; he sounds quite scared! Bless. |

Nothing wrong with dragging them into a physical battle if we can do so, just that it's a bit hard to do if they end up with 60% possession.

jordangooner: "What a terrible article, encouraging Stoke to kick Arsenal off the pitch"
As if Mark Hughes will read this article and go "ay up, Lewis Doe of HereIsTheCity.com is on to something here. I'll just encourage my players to kick the shite out of the Arse. What a great idea!"
Fecking numpty

Bit off topic and it has been mentioned before.
How many of the older Stokies can remember the sending off of Storey?
John Mahoney was on the floor receiving treatment, the ball was dead, and Storey ran 20 yards and kicked him in the back! Can anyone give me further details, my memory isn't what it was.
I believe that he was jailed later---not for this.

But he was mental off it as well; getting done for running a brothel, financing counterfeit gold coins and importing porn. One of life's more colourful characters. I bet Reuben (another thread) wouldn't approve! |
