Some of the posts on here recently (and since the start of the season!) stating that signings are useless etc and we should of gone for etc
People need to get perspective in their heads!!
We are Stoke for Gods sake. We simply are not going to attract the likes of players that everyone would like, or thiks we should be signing just because we have Premier League badge on the shirt!
1- We dont pay daft wages
2-Agents willl always try to get better deals/clubs for players.
3-Our style of play will put certain players off
4- We are just not very glamorous!
We have to accept that the players we get we should be grateful for because we had to get some in as last years squad wasnt strong enough!

true mate-
we all have to realise that Stoke are skint and if werent for Coates we would be in the crap.
I cant see how we are going to be in the big cash that most think we now are.

If the good performances and good results we have had this season had happened last years, say in tye cup etc, 100% on here and Stoke fans everywhere would have been ecstatic.
A lot of folks are being like spoilt kids!!
Dont get me wrong, Im not 100% happy with Pulis judgement and style and some signings! But come on we are only Stoke and what we HVE achieved is pretty impressive so far.
Just hope we can push on from here???

I don't think people think we've got United's money, but it does make me laugh when we are dissappointed if we have not beaten 'every' team at home and 75% of teams away from home in our first taste of the prem!

I think I'm getting the message here. Take your relegation like a man, be grateful if we even win one game and don't complain about ANYTHING! I think that just about covers it.  |

I agree, we are only Stoke, and we should realise that when we go shopping for players. Sometimes it feels like we aim beyond our pulling power, (Ledley and Pennant) and keep trying to get those players in right up until the 11th hour, when we are left with having to bring in players that the manager does not really want (tonge and Soares).
If we set our sights correctly maybe we'd reach a middle ground where we attracted players that wanted to play for us and the manager actually trusted.

I've never been 'thankfull for what I've got' when it comes to any commercial transaction - that's asking to be shat on.
