I watched central news last and saw the "lord Mayor" up anley duck, why does he have to jump on the band wagon ??? i could hardly understand what he said, thats bad enough but he added at the end that he was a "Boothen boy" and used to go in the boothen end at the vic as a kid !!!! he's about the same age as me so that'd be the 70/80's so i'd say no fuckin chance did he !!!! pissed me right off using the old "yes i'm a supporter and always have been" same goes for Meridith too !!! I'm embrrased by the fact that we have a "ethnic cousin" for 1 of the "mayors" but we have 9 BNP councillors WTF is going on ? sorry but it really pissed me off.

They announced him as the mayor, so got him confused with that cretin Meredith.
When the short little power hungry school and swimming pool shutting I am bigger than this City soon to be unelected bastard evenutally got the microphone, the boo's increased tenfold

Transparent electioneering tactics. Do they think the people of Stoke-on-Trent are stupid?
(Mind you, nine BNP councillors? What's that all about ...?)

Warm, inclusive, friendly, willing to give anyone a second chance... aren't some Stokies bloody lovely? Bagh Ali and his daughter have done more for the city than Meredith imho (not as much as Mike Wolfe though), so what the hell's the problem with him not being born here and not being white? He's even proud of us all for God's sake. And let's face it if he was an Asian lad trying to follow Stoke in the 70s he'd have had to be Superman not to be scared off sometimes.

Why are you embarrased to have an Asian Mayor? It speaks fucking volumes about the city in terms of tolerance, acceptance and judging sombody on their ability to do a job. If you want to be ashamed, be ashamed of the BNP councillors. It makes the city a laughing stock.
He won;t be the first political candidate to lie about footballing allegiance, Tony Blair once claimed to have watched Milburn from the Gallowgate End - Milburn retired three years before Blair was born. Political figures always attempt to bask in the reflective glory of an area's sporting success, what i find sinister is your desperate attempt to bring race into it.

from my original post..."I'm embrrased by the fact that we have a "ethnic cousin" for 1 of the "mayors" but we have 9 BNP councillors WTF is going on ?"

I'd liken it to you winning the lottery, then all the hangers on start hanging around you wanting a piece of you or your money, is it cos they like you ? is it cos they want your money?, if they are nice people it makes no difference they still want you for your money ?
i'm not in the slightest interested in stirring up racist shit so you can fuck off with that one, i have no objection in anyone coming to watch Stoke . who the fuck am i to decide who watches ? i treat everyone the same no matter what colour or creed, if they're a liar/drug dealer/thief/honest John/general good egg, they're a liar/drug dealer/thief/honest John/general good egg, no matter what colour !

I dont think he's lying about being a stoke fan. He's picked us up in his taxi quite a few times and always chats about Stoke and knows his stuff
