Just emailed the following to TalkSport, wonder if theyll read it out?
When I was a kid, my brother said to me "Pick a Team and stick with it..... they are your team"
So for some strange reason I supported Stoke City, Ive had many a year of heataches.... come on we are the 2nd oldest Professional Footballing team in the world, had a wonderful Heritage with players like Sir Stan Matthews, Alan Hudson, Neil Franklin and even Geoff Hurst but the only noticable thing we have ever won was the League Cup Final in 72.
I would NEVER consider supporting another team though, dont get me wrong I look out for other results, especially other local teams.... Port Vale or Crewe. Thats what Footall is about though isnt it? I bet teams like Man Utd or Chelsea wouldnt have so many fans if it wasnt for media intervention, before TV and Radio you supported your local team! That was just the way it was.
Stoke are now living the dream, 20+ years without top level football and now we are showing the world, what Football is about.... local fans raising their voices and keeping their local teams playing for the pride of the club instead of the over inflated pay cheques!!
WE ARE THE POTTERS!!!!
Mr Shearer may just have a shock today.... its alright watching us whilst punditing but actually experiencing The Britannia Stadium will scare him sh1tl3ss!!! :-)
2-0 to Stoke today!!!!! "COOOOMMMMMEEEEEE ONNNNNN!" ;D

I should have added....
"Football is the working man's ballet"
Tony Waddington - Stoke City Manager (1960 - 1977)
