Had people behind me asking me to sit down today, sorry but you can fuck off.. who travels to an away game to just sit in silence, it’s tinpot and looks shite. Best part of it was they was all stood up at half time 😂😂 It’s football not tennis, stand up and support the lads Anyway what a day. UTMP 🔴⚪️ Stand at the back then you selfish bastard If you sit down you don't 'support the lads'? Interesting logic It also 'looks shite'. To who?

If any old person or someone with mobility issues asks me to sit down I just abuse them verbally, then take them down into the concourse under the pretence of buying them a coffee, and just leather them senseless. They're then given an appointment for the statue for the next home game where I promise to finish the job i've just started Trust me, they don't ask again. *Just incase people have any issues with satire - this post is exactly that. No immobile or old people were hurt by this post or the author of this post... I think that you're sailing close to the wind as far as social media 'Hate Speech' is concerned, claiming satirical licence is no excuse. But it is not is it. Sattire is a skill, demands inteligence, and has to be funny. The author obviouslsly lacks skill and inteligence, which results in a clueless unfunny statement. Anybody can write anything that is offensive, and call it satire, it doesn't mean it is. What are admin. doing, are they sitting on their hands? Disability comes under the equality hate crime acts, and there is no doubt, criminal offences have been carried out on this thread.

This thread does Stoke fans no favours, some of you are proper stupid, or just like arguing.

I go a few away games and the less popular ones are okay for sitting. S Wednesday was a sell out so no chance of sitting, we moved to the front. . Swansea was okay because there were plenty of empty seats. Southampton was okay but had to move to find a seat. It's hit and miss. Most people are happy to sit down but it only takes one or two kids to decide to stand then everyone has to, bit like a domino effect

This whole thread is not just about what goes on at football matches it is about the society in which we live. Today we live in a selfish world where violence is rife and there is little respect for the older generation. The rules in a football ground are very simple but very difficult to police. There are seats in football grounds for a reason and that is safety and the order that it creates has respect for everybody. The comments I am reading on this thread are nothing less than disgraceful. It clearly shows the morons we have at matches.

The sooner all the grounds have safe standing the better , then peope get the choice , lots of people like to sit especially older and smaller people or family fans , would be great if here was a way to sort this .
I get that plenty want to stand but selfish posts like this show me why some Stoke away days start going down bank once you enter the ground , the number of selfish pricks with two brain cells between them is always in evidence and it can ruin a good day out .
Not just a Stoke thing of course but in limited space they are much harder to avoid

If people are too stupid to realise what is an exaggerated response holding up a mirror to and satirising the questionable worldview of the initial post then I fear for the future of comedy in this country. That said, it amuses me greatly to imagine some of you watching a Frankie Boyle or Stewart Lee dvd and failing to comprehend the ironic detachment and antiphrasis that they and comics like them employ to highlight the ridiculousness of views that some (and it's an ever increasing amount) people hold. Do yourselves a favour and never open YouTube and enter the search term 'Jerry Sadowitz' 🤣

At Cardiff away the stewards saw me looking for my seat number and just said
"just go anywhere, but if you want to stand, go at the back and if you want to sit, go nearer the front" which was pretty much common sense
