you question my intelligence?
the humble conclusion has to be to question your own.. or at least question your authority to call for the heads of players and the management team.. when youv'e just said you dont get to watch much football.
im not going to insinuate that to comment posters have to be experts... but surely if your knowledge and understanding is limited by geography then a little humility might be more appropriate than your usual tantrums!

Fromafar07 Have you actually seen Stoke play live? i.e. at the ground.

someone asks for an opinion from spidey and fromafar and before they give one they get folk on the bandwagon of personal opinion ...to be honest both like all of us do have valid points to make ...not always right in my opinion but then neither is smudge ....inho

fromafar, I find it hard to believe that someone who is English and claims to have an interest in football has never seen Beattie play. OK he hasn't played for Stoke yet but he had a long career in the Premiership plus 5 England caps and you have never seen him play? Surely the Premier League and England games are televised in your neck of the woods and surely someone with such an interest in the game would have watched them? . I was thinking that myself. So i was right after all about him admitting he had lost contact with the English game for a number of years , which he totally denies ;D |

So you now admit to never having seen Harewood or Beattie play, yet continue to spout off like some kind of all knowing oracle when it comes to the performance of Pulis as a manager? Un fucking believable. And if you have such an issue with Pulis, why, when he was live on air on Fox Football Fone In and you called the show, did you not share your opinions with the man while you had the chance?

fromafar you have proved that you pretty much totally sold out to America when you went over there. Only when you had the convenience of cable TV and Stoke happened to get promoted to the premier league have you bothered to take notice. (armchair gloryhunter comes to mind?)
I've moved away but still followed my team whatever division we were in and whether it meant listening to radio stoke or watching text updates on the internet. And no it isnt a pompous to question your knowledge it simply proves you know less about Stoke and football in general than virtually every other poster on this website FACT.
So dont get all uptight when we dont listen to your inane negative drivel after a defeat.
And by the way not knowing who Beattie is or seen him play is pretty poor

i always get some good laughs from the dope squad, Dubaistokie, Statesidestokie and KKKen ( the only member of the Klan that is english). you dopes read what you want to read when i make posts, you leave words out at your will, maybe its lack of reading skills. But if yo uwant to get to read them for you, you wil lsee that i never said anything about HArewood, besides asking an extremely simple question of "why would he be good for Stoke" ? as for Beattie, i dont really care that i dont know much about him, i knew he played for England, but unless he plays for Stoke, why would i pay much or any attention to him ?? or others for that matter ? Im a Pittsburgh Steelers fan, i know about their players, but i dont go around concentrating on the players of other teams !!!
However, Dope Squad, please keep up your posts to my threads. i need the laughs !!! ;D ;D ;D

If you know nothing about football why do you pretend you support Stoke???
I have family members who dont particularly like football, but still want Stoke and England to do well. They dont pretend to be experts and dont come onto message boards critising and moaning when they dont know what they are talking about!!
You have never seen Stoke play in person and have not seen the improvements the team has made since we were way down in League 1 with the Chic Bates' and Brian Littles.. Yet you come on here are try to insult loyal Stoke fans like Fornside who have seen it all.

Post by fromafar07 on Jan 14, 2009 17:49:26 GMT
Ok first things first. Stokelad, who are you ?? 2nd, who is Fornside ?
3rd ive been a Stoke fan since 1966, and regulary attended most homes games. I did attend 1 game in person last season. admittedly, after moving to the States in '76, it was pretty difficult to keep close watch on them beyond what my family back in Stoke and England told me. So, with the advent on the internet i was able to re new my support for them and have been following them closely now for 7-8 years. Dont teally give a crap about any other team, dont pay any specific attention to any other teams players, i do watch other teams play just to get some football in. After all, this is America where soccer is a growing sport not THE sport. World Cup, European cup, always watch them !!
SO, now you know the real facts, dont you feel like a real ass ???
yes, i thought so !!

I think what people are taking issue with is the fact that you seem to think your opinion is the only one that counts, while at the same time admitting you have a very limited knowledge of football. You constantly criticise the team, players, management and every aspect of the club, and seem hell bent on insulting people who clearly have a much broader knowledge of the game than yourself. If Stoke is the only team you watch, and you have absolutely no interest in football outside of watching Stoke, then which teams are you comparing us to in your analysis? You constantly argue that the team is playing the wrong tactics, the wrong style of play, and using players who are not up to the job, but if you don't watch any other football then I fail to see how you have any grasp of what it actually takes to survive in the Premiership. Perhaps if you offered some respect to the opinions of others who LIVE for the game, you would not find yourself being the laughing stock of the board.
So, now YOU know the facts, why don't you fuck off and watch the Steelers as you seem to be completely lost when it comes to real football. (by the way, what part of the States do you live in? If I am correct in thinking it is North Carolina, why the hell are you a Pittsburg Steelers "Fan"?

Fromafar, if you have been a Stoke fan since 1966, I'd guess that makes you about 50. In which case, your posts make you look deeply immature and quite childish.

Right lets have a bit of normality here for the love of God.
Yes,everyone is entitled to their opinion on this site but can we please have a bit of maturity.
Anyone looking for juvenile bickering please go on the teenage chat rooms.
I know Fromafar from school and a group of about 6-7 of us(including the aforementioned) attended every home game ,on the Boothen, including the halcion days of Mr Hudson and Co.God what days.
So I know he is a true Stokie.
However he can be prone to the occassional gaff.
Come on guys and gals.
Harmony is required.
We can all feel that something special is around the corner.
I expect people to listen to me because I was 50 on Sunday,but I might have told you that already.

LakelandPotter, living in America for the past 32 years, football isnt exaclty a national past time. I only started getting the Fox Soccer Channel on my cable TV 3 years ago. I only started keeping up with Stoke, closley, 7-8 years ago. Beyond that, it was updates from family in England. Big fan then...  |
