Today I have had to visit bloody north wales and in particular Llandudno. On this visit I had to take pictures and observations etc. But whilst taking pictures I saw at least 20 Stoke fans dotteda round the promenade and a couple of bald stokies watching punch and Judy together!? Pretty good to see this!Our supierority over the championship clubs is huge now too, becuase whilst on the pier, a football shop sold Stoke footballs and caps!!!
Sorry to bore you with this but had to know, Were any of you lot there today by any chance??? ;D

A lot of people from Stoke visit Llandudno I think, because it is only a 2 hour drive and quite a nice place, maybe all the stokies have turned the locals into stokies?

Went on Monday and there was definitely no football shop on the pier. Porkies I think. Yeah there was, it was about the fourth or fifth one along and at the time had loadsa flags like Manure 'we did it' flags and those car sticker things with teams pissing on each other (West brom had a lot of merchandise too with Villa there rivals)... At the front and inside the shop were some footballs in the colours of the team and with the name printeda cross it. There you go I told you it was true!! Oh and look at this awesome shop I saw in town....

Is the esplanade hotel still open by the pier on the opposite side of the road from the beach. Used to be a cracking pint and some great banter with the welsh locals ;D

The owner said Stoke wont release any merchandise since they got promotion.
