The atmosphere was excellent, think it was possibly the loudest it’s been all season overall.

Think oh when the reds could be alittle slower, either spurs or wigan sang it slow and it sounded really good.
Still, electric.

Loved the Times and BBC referring to the Brit as "the bearpit ".
This is not the first time the Times have desrcibed as the bearpit this season.
Oh when the reds sounds great whem song slow some try to speed it up with clapping.

I agree - best atmosphere this season so far! And not just because of the volume, but more because of the variety of songs.
We need to keep this up for ALL home games though.

I liked the fact that there were 3 decent renditions of We'll Be With You. I think this is one of the better songs we have, and its unique to us, and so should be sung more like on Satdee, rather than once a game (if that). It also means we are still singing a unique Stoke song, whilst we aren't overdoing Delilah at the same time!

The old Orlyggson chant.

Don't make me laugh. ;D lol, that'd be it mate, still it was loud and sounded really good slow. Wigan only made a noise after they scored, with their gay music

Best atmos of the season a bit like the Bristol City game last season...5.30 kick-off...a lot of people are pissed..very few inhibitions..singing in the concourse and bogs...wished every kick off was 5.30... 'Oh when the reds' AT LAST was sung s-l-o-w-l-y and sounded brilliant...just slow it down a bit more and it will be amazing..

oh when the reds is timeless classic when sung slowly, it's when people start clapping the problems start, why do people have to clap in every song it just kills it.

Agree, brilliant atmosphere.
on a personal note I love that time kick-off, it suits for a variety of reasons.
On the other hand I think that the lunchtime and late morning kick-offs are dog-poo and the atmosphere is never quite the same.

Superb indeed .i only have one gripe which is pissing me off please please stop adding the vale to our songs it really belittles our club and half of the prem teams/fans have never even heard of them.Etherington running down the wing feared by the vale is just riduculous seen as we will never play them..

Pity we didn't have one more Home game in the next fortnight instead of at the end of the month when the window closes. It would give another opportunity for potential targets to see what playing at Stoke is all about.

I know it's a personal thing, but I really f***ing hate Saturday Teatime kick offs. You're getting to the game when you should be coming away, you're leaving at a time when you should be arriving for a mid-weeker and every other teams' fans are at home having their tea or preparing to go out for the evening. It really is a "no-man's time". Still, this is life in the C21 , and when Sky say "Jump!...".

I agree although you wouldn't think so if you read Paul Wilson's piece in The Observer yesterday. He described us as being "unusually quiet". WTF?
I reckon he actually wrote Liverpool's fans were unusually quiet and the sub-editor just couldn't believe it and changed it!
