Hmmm.
The perception that you have to attend the game to be a fan seems to be rearing it’s ugly head.
I was working until 2 and the ground is 2 hours away, so couldn’t go.
Does that make me a worse fan?
Quite a lot of the comments on the match day threads are from people who live abroad.
Are these so called super Stoke fans expecting them to charter a plane to get to the match.
Ridiculous.

No way, football fans sometimes make critical comments during games? When did this start? During the 86 season I think

Presumably all these negative comments were coming from 'fans' not at the match some at least of whom were sitting at home with their keyboard, a list of negative comments ready at hand, listening to a commentary or reading a feed without any idea of what was really happening. Ah yes because people wouldn’t have been watching it 🤦♂️

Whatever happened to .....
Sounds like we're playing well
Since we've had streaming you just don't read it on matchdays any more

Ah yes because people wouldn’t have been watching it 🤦♂️ Some might I admit but a lot don't. Somebody the other week made a comment criticising Bonham for the goal against Coventry. From what he said it seemed to me that he hadn't actually watched it so I asked him if he had. His reply was no he hadn't but he'd taken my advice and watched it on the highlights and agreed Bonham was not as awful as he'd thought, his criticism had been over the top and other players were also to blame. Big man to admit it and change his mind. Not many on this board do.

Well to be absolutely fair. So was I. On my phone at least. But i was craving that we’d do well. That we’d make the Fifth round. That we’d negotiate a very tricky draw. That our new signing might score. Maybe we’d even keep a clean sheet. And weirdly all those things happened. But reading the match thread was like having a little black cloud hovering over my head and showering me in piss. Fair play to those who went to the game and who go week in week out. But fuck off the grumpy miserable bastards that seem to want us to fall at every hurdle.

Only a couple. About 5 in the 84-85 season. Average about ten per season 85-90. Season ticket holder 90-98. Average about ten a season 98-2005. In true Stoke fashion I moved out of the Uk just as things got good. So since then I’ve made one or two a season. Would you please run the numbers through your super computer and let me know: A) am I a proper supporter B) does my opinion count Cheers

Football is all about emotion and most comments are an immediate reaction to events and is usually entirely fickle: a misplaced pass results in the player being denounced as a useless wanker, 5 minutes later and he scores and it's all hail the conquering hero I wouldn't read too much into any of it

He was certainly not blameless but I disagreed that his pass out under pressure caused by a poor back pass by Smith I think it was was a huge mistake and not the loose pass straight to a forward which this bloke thought it was. The point was that the bloke making the comment admitted he'd made it without having seen the incident. How can you do that unless it's to get a reaction?

It’s to do with people being miserable negative fuckers or not. It’s not being negative. It’s the emotive reaction to something you care about. They are in the moment, they are exaggerated, they are for that 10 seconds. Failing to see that is incomprehensible tbh.

Shouting something at a match is completely different to typing and posting something on a phone or laptop. For a seemingly intelligent person you aren’t half slow at times.

It’s a message board isn’t it? It’d be a boring old place if everyone agreed. There’s as many hyper optimistic folk as hyper pessimistic folk and the vast majority are in between. I think those views from one extreme to the other is what makes this board so popular. A better football message board you will not find so suck it up and stop moaning about opinions.
