Interesting question. There’s got to be a few born before the First World War.

On the 9th August 2012 SCOBA put on a surprise birthday tribute to one of the all time greats of Stoke City.
If John King is still alive, he would be 86

If John King is still alive, he would be 86 He is still alive and attending local lads and dad's games in Crewe and running after every ball that goes out of play (well he was doing that as of about 5 years ago) Lives near me

Don't know about a player but chuffedstokie's dad has been a supporter since 1938 - 80 years! I think he's in his early 90s.

If God is a Stokie he's got a fucking nasty sense of humour.

My grandma just turned 100 and she is an ex-Stoke player's wife.
She is a fan, albeit unsurprisingly not attending games these days.

No Stoke fan is older than 35! We just look and feel the way we do because of having to watch the hair raising antics of the team on the field.

My brother-in-laws aunties, are 102 and 97, have free season tickets at Man City and have been going since the 1920s. The club sends a car to pick them up and a golf buggy takes them to their seats. www.bbc.com/sport/football/45534193

My old man is 93 and still going strong.He doesn't go to games now I think his last one was about 5 years ago. He is still very opinionated though

I've known Old Stokie for nearly 20 years. He was already called Old Stokie back then on the original steam Internet but is still only 63. Something not right about it all.

If ever there was a misnomer when it was first made, it was this one. And after reading this great thread, I still feel my moniker is a misnomer. I love to read about some of the real oldies that still support Stoke. I doff my flat cap in respect to them. Supporting Stoke for so long is akin to a lifelong padded-cell sentence in Siberia with the occasional glimpse of sunlight. I wish I was still 63. I'd be on the net now booking us flights to Monte Carlo again... or another trip to see Bossie. M.

We old buggers do tend to become a bit self-opinionated with the passing years. But that's because we've been there and got the scars to prove it. I hate Arsenal with a passion. OS.
