Virtually everyone in the game outside of Arsenal at the time said it was two fully committed players going into a challenge and just a split second caused the bad injury just one of those things that happen sometimes, sums the modern media up today very sad to raise it again, I hope the club complain about it .

MotD2 have been championing the "Stoke City are thugs" line for years now. It's happened too often for it to be anything but a vendetta. Last nights episode went too far, and I think the club should now be asking some serious questions (loudly) about the production and editing of this program.

Any grown up realises it's pantomime. Heroes and Villains etc. why do you think most Stokies think it's utter crap?

other than us and Arsenal does anyone else really care anymore? I was bored of the Eduardo - Taylor 'horrific tackle' after 2 days so imagine how the rest of the country feels after 3 years. I bet neutrals are more pissed off at the BBC than we are

Most grown ups can tell the difference between a pantomime that happens once a year and ends happily after an hour and a half, and the unjustified assassination of a footballers character that's gone on for over three years now and shows no signs of ending anytime soon.

Just wanted to point something out listening to the commentary.. is John Motson an Arsenal fan? sounded like he literally didn't give a shit about our goal but when Arsenal had the ball and twatted a shot over by 30 yards he was jizzing in his pants. Prick.

Prick. It's not that he's an Arsenal fan mate, it's just that nobody gives a flying f**k about Stoke. Can you imagine the reaction we would have got if results went our way and we were top of the Prem? It seemed like that in the seventies to me as well.

I've been civil about it so far but now I've had enough, I fucking despise Ramsey the classless little Welsh cunt, I hope he gets absolutely hounded by our fans when he plays down here the horrible little shushing vermin, the media can kiss my arse as well, too busy wife swapping and hacking peoples phones to be bothered to come up with any original material. Fuck you Ramsey, fuck your stupid leg, Fuck you Wenger and your Ozil bumming blinkered Arsenal zombies, Fuck you all you degenerate media hacks who think you're being clever by voicing your worthless opinions on a 4 year old incident for the 850th time. Fuck the lot of you. Don`t you hold back just say what you feel lol

On Sky didn't Alan "Arsenal" Smith slip a "that's over the top by Wilshere, not for the first time" or words to that effect. No condemnation merely a half hearted Tut !! MOTD2 missed those early challenges completely.

The only pundit who puts his neck on the line and defends us on the BBC is Robbie Savage and he predicted we'd go down this year. BBC are a joke

Foo Fighters did a cover of it. You're right though. It is a bit of an understated classic.

So basically ignore all letters and correspondence from the BBC? Is that it? Why didn't you just say that? Yes, basically. I have a collection of letters assuming my guilt but there's absolutely nothing they can do unless you enter dialogue with them.

Prick. John Motson is a demented old cock who should have been put down years ago. Everytime any stoke player got the ball he just kept shouting Shawcross! and if it was an Arse player he would shout Giroud! regardless of who it was - Fool.

MOTD2 missed those early challenges completely. I'm pretty certain Wilshere did an ankle high tackle that barely warranted a half arsed glance from the commentators. However Huth's body check warranted several replays.

For me all this shit is just what we need to galvanise our supporters and players again.
I watched the game on SKY and wanted to smash the fucking tele so biased was Alan Smiths commentary during the first 20 minutes and the continual references to Ramsey's gammy leg.
MOTD 2 was even worse and the opening comments were scandalous really and if anything can be done, I would urge our club to do it immediately. it is time for our clubs dignified silence on this to end in my opinion.
The battle lines are redrawn and everyone associated with Arsenal should get it both barrels during their visit to the Brit in March.
I've said it in the run up to the game and i'll say it again now, fuck Arsenal and fuck Ramsey.
We have a new rule in our house now that is whoever Manure are playing, we want the opposition to win, unless that opposition is Arsenal.
Classless wankers the lot of them...players, manager and fans.

is that knobwreck cunt Chappers still doing it? He has a personal vendetta against Stoke, in general, the cocksucker, that's why I won't watch. He sometimes does 5Live 606 Radio phone-in and he's so scathing of Stoke it's unbelievable. He did a whole section on how Stoke was easy cash for Hughes and that he didn't really give a shit about the club whatsoever... Errr and Manuel Pellegrini is such a big Man City fan is he? Most managers in the Premiership are mercenaries, but because Mark Hughes is managing Stoke and we're such a tinpot club to him.
Fucking twatbag.

I am going to complain to the BBC about MOTD2 last night. I have complained before about negative coverage of Stoke. If other people feel strongly enough they should also complain. BUT- stick to the facts, dont go over the top, no bad language.
We pay licence fees to the BBC and they need to be more mindful of the views and feelings of people in Stoke and indeed Stoke supporters everywhere in the UK.
But I dont think we should boo Ramsey. Two wrongs don't make a right.

Playing Arsenal away always sucks every bit of love for football I have out of my body. From their despicable lying manager, their mentally ill persecution complex fuckwit fans, their opulent padded seat palace, their brittle boned breathe on them and they go down circus act players and the lemming media dancing to their every tune.
I'm not sure what sport it is down their but it's a different one to the one I follow.

Not just MOTD but the BBC match reports in general can't help themselves as they refer to our 'physical style' etc etc virtually every week now. Whilst Swansea continue to be the media darlings..... I'm with one of the earlier posters, to hell with it all, we are never going to be a 'popular' club and in truth who wants bloody popularity anyway? Time for the hostile Brit siege mentality to return with a vengeance; they can all do one as far as I am concerned and that includes the rags that pretend to be 'news' papers such as the Male and the Torygraph. Winding up nicely for the visit of the Canaries now

Standard response to a BBC complaint - "on balance, we think we got it about right"....
A few years back I complained to "NewsWatch" - a 15 min slot on the news channel shown at stupid o'clock, about the nauseating & tiresome BBC obsession & general wank-fest that is Glastonbury as a "news" item - I asked them why Glasto was so newsworthy and Download festival (for example) was not - think it was the year AC/DC did it and there was 110k there....to be fair they read it out but didn't comment....and has anything changed, NO - just got worse and more of a liberal love in than ever....

Just type 'BBC complaint online' into google and you will find the BBC complaints page.
Its a good idea to make some specific points and ask a few specific questions for them to answer. A rambling sort of complaint is easy for them to ignore. One that makes good points and raises serious questions has to be looked into. I would like MOTD2 to apologise to Ryan Shawcross but obviously I'm not hopeful.
