The fucking hell are you talking about? Nick Powell was one of the main reasons we stayed up last season. Jones would have been the key reason we went down. Whoever gives more of a fuck is a bit irrelevant What the fucking hell Im talking about mate is class. Not class in terms of how good you are at something but how good you are at conducting yourself. I don’t disagree about your point that Powell contributed more to our survival than Jones did but to suggest Powell cared more than Jones did is absolute bollox. BM People show they care in different ways. |

Wasn't Powell one of the ones who was against the diamond formation and was actually fit to play but wasn't picked and we were told he was injured

My point is Powell is classless for taking the piss out of Jones for having heart and caring. You get that yeah? Jones was a fucking disaster for us, absolutely , but I don’t hate him for it because he cared and showed heart and I don’t want to see anyone take the piss out of him because he had heart. Take the piss because he fucked up if you want but it had nothing to do with ‘heart’. BM |

Saw he was making hints along the same lines of the old chestnut he used to roll out here every week, that being 'we were the better side between the 2 boxes'. He can have that little nugget of consolation seeing how clinical we were in their box and how composed and organised we were behind the ball, especially when we got wise to the wide runners looking to cut inside whilst the full back looked to pin the wing backs back

Interesting that Campbell's retweeted Powell's piss-taking celebration. I’m still not fully sold on Nick Powell as a player but as a shithouse he’s absolutely top drawer. Inject this into my veins. |

What's wrong with Powell sending a message to Jones? It's quite clear they had a falling out and it clearly gave OUR PLAYER the motivation to help bring us 3 points today.
The fact some of you still feel something for Jones, a weird sympathy if you will, when he clearly hadn't the first fucking clue how to do the job here, is frankly weird.
The chest beating clearly worked on some of you. Well done Powell, you beautiful shithouse.

Powell gave a bit to Jones to make up a bit for missing out on the stick he might have got from the away following

Nathan Jones beating his chest after his rare victories didn’t prove he cared for Stoke. It merely showed he knew how to win the support of a few simpleton fans at a time he was massively under fire for taking our club to the brink of relegation with the most horrendous record of any manager of all time.
If anything it underlined what a piss-taking charlatan he was.
I have no idea whether Nick Powell wears red and white striped underpants on his holidays during the summer, but when he scores an important goal against the prat who bought him then decided not to pick him as we lost to utter dross week after week, then as far as I’m concerned he can take the piss with a clear conscience.

Bristol Mick - I suspect the piss taking was more personal-professional nature. Proper 'stick that in your pipe and smoke it.'
Also, interestingly, Radio Stoke in the build up said how much Jones would want to 'put one past his former club' and a further comment, 'yes, and I suspect there's a player or two that feel the same way about proving a point in reverse' or words to that effect. And that's what happened, and mercifully, it went our way.

All this badge kissing nonsense makes me puke. All those that ever truly cared about our football club did it on the pitch or quietly and without show and they remain in our hearts.
With the odd notable exception most players and managers want to get one over.
Arni with his poncy hammer arms. TP bouncing up and down on the WBA technical area.
Let's be clear if NJ had won he'd have been running on the pitch like a demented moron. We won and Powell plays for us now so his shithousery is actually funny and no more classless than the barrage our away following would have given NJ if we'd been allowed to go.

Against Middlesbrough in what was an extremely vital game to our survival hopes last season Nick Powell showed that he was less concerned with the FC than he was his own personal issues. Happily we got away with it and survived comfortably but it sure as hell didn’t look like we would after his selfish actions that day. Powell is a good footballer but he has no right to take the piss out of anyone having heart! BM In your opinion. There's not a chance that a footballer gets sent off on purpose. He's hot headed yeah and needs to summer it down a bit but he didn't get sent off on purpose. |

Nathan Jones didn’t care about the club otherwise he would have re-signed
What he did care about was his ego, winning a popularity contest without coming up with the goods.
Good riddance
