WOOOW....how much television coverage is this getting!
I bet were gonna get all the decisions tuesday, but surely thats not what anyboday wants... buckling under the pressure , weak refereeing.
Top idea from Tony though, cant see a floor in it, they should be under as much pressure as the football clubs.

Deffo price... look at the turnout at bolton recently my ticket was £20 and its a 15 minute drive for myself. Everton was £33 , crap stadium, restricted view, no thanks.
I dont no how much Sunderland tickets were but i no its probably £40-50 petrol.

This will be your reply ....
Dear sir/madame,
Thankyou for your letter. We undertand that you are unhappy with a decision that has been made in a football match/ an official / beachball / rasist abuse.
We are unable to investigate individual cases, but believe our officials work very hard to ensure fair play.
Many thanks

On the whole, the football has been much better this year, the 2 out and out wingers is great to watch and great now tuncays back in , but defence needs sorting...crazy to think danny collins has been our most consistant defender this season!
January must get a centre mid and fullbacks in.

Its a good idea...if theres a bad decision....20,000 ppl are blowing whistles....that noise will be deafening! Will make the atmosphere very intimidating !!
The ref's will think twice before making a decision, sounds crazy but could actually influence the game....remember the noise/atmosphere against man city in the first season up....very intimidating !!! Loved it...remember Beattie commenting after the game on the noise.
Get your whistless/sing your hearts out....and make sum noise !!!!!!

Our run of bad luck will turn around ....
4-0 win
1-0 Jones heads it against the post....but bounces off the goalkeeper and into the net.
2-0 A fantastic passing movement if finished off by Rory Delap, with a 30 yard volley
3-0 Turner makes a horrific 2 footed tackle that is so bad, no one ever even mentions shawcross/ramsy ever again. Wenger moans about Sunderland in every pre match interview ...oh and stoke penalty - Fuller scores.
4-0 Alla old trafford last week, tuncay goes down easily in the box and puts his hands on the ball, the ref says play on, tunny scores!
If Carlsberg did football matches....

Anyone else think we have a great chance on Saturday against an under pressure Sunderland team, looked awfull at defending against newcastlea giants up front.
Despite the results we have played the best football I've seen us play in a long time recently , tunny and bego to remain in the team hopefully...
1-0 for me, quite optimistic , anyone else ?

Robert Huth to score first and Stoke 1-0 @ 110/1 Jonathan Walters to score first and Stoke 1-0 @ 55/1, Ryan Shawcross anytym goalscorer @ 10/1, Kenwyne Jones to score first and Stoke 1-0 @ 40/1, Man Utd - Stoke @ 40/1, Stoke - Man Utd @ 22/1, Had £2.50 on each  |

Im sick of tuning into sky sports to hear what murphy thinks or that rooney's having an affair or karl henry's now more hated than the nazi's. What happened to just enjoying football? 2 main problems for me: 1. Arse Wenger .... literally just him, a horrible person that stirs things up, and causes mass controversy. If after the shawcross incident if he'd have said, 'it was late but and very unfortunate, Ryan's apologised personally and hope's as we all do for a speedy recovery'.... we would never of heard anything about it ever again. Now a newspaper article starts.... Ryan Shawcross, who broke Aaron Ramseys leg in 2010, today reveiled th....... Will he ever shake that now? Answer probably not. Real shame. 2. Inconsistent referee's. I see tackles some weeks that the ref doesnt blow up for, i see the same thing the next week and its a straight red. It's insane. Something has to be done, im surely not the only one that sometimes walks away from the Brit angry and fustrated purley because of a poor decision yet again. I spose the media spotlight is huge in the prem, i saw stuff 10 times worse in the championship, but it gets little coverage. But will things ever change? Can they ever change? Or is this is now, and i should just get used to it and stop moaning???  thoughts? |

He was pretty poor but one of the worst decisions was the linesman when Walters went through As for 3 pens...........you're having a laugh right? Handball, yes. Huth, never.............no idea what the third was Kenwyn getting held in first half in the area, well for most of the game. Anyway the handball was obvious to all, and was it Collins or Matty that got took out and ref didnt give a card? |

I was at the game myself, totally agree with you. I counted 3 potensional penaltys, jones was man handled all game, fuller 1 was deffo free kick aswell , was just horrible to watch .
Linesmen were equally as bad, just so poor

Dont believe that if it came to it, the premier league wouldnt do it.
Who remembers this from 2006 -
Serie A sides Juventus, Lazio and Fiorentina have been demoted to the second division for their involvement in Italy's match-fixing scandal.
Juventus were also stripped of their last two Serie A titles and had 30 points deducted, meaning they are likely to stay down for two seasons.
AC Milan will stay in Serie A but will start the season docked 15 points.
All are barred from playing in Europe - Juventus, Milan and Fiorentina in the Champions League; Lazio the Uefa Cup.
Completely different situation yes, but they do make example of big clubs.

A welcome win away from home and a much needed 3 points, well done.
I’d also like to say well done for keeping my football team up in your first season with us. Well done for stabilising us and then getting us promoted to the Premier League. Well done for keeping us here, and now attracting world class players to our club. Well done for sticking with us, defending us in every interview, praising the fans showing a real passion and love for this club whilst a minority of fans will continue to dislike you and your ability to manage.
I have won the league with Stoke on Champ manager but in reality it's not quite that easy. Some people on here think it is.
You are the best thing to happen to our football club in recent history . Well done.

Watched the game with my dad, and we both agreed salif was the best player in the first half, albeit we played awfull the first half.
He won tackles, passing was good and did his job well infront of the back four.
Anyone who says he was awfull has just got it in their heads he's awfull week in week out and no matter his performance will slate him.
Credit where credits due!
And off the top of my head i remember 2 sliding tackles that broke down newcastle attacks, and when he won headers actually headed them to a fellow stoke player. 8/10

Newcastle to be infront at halftime and stoke to win was 40-1 !!! nice little £200 for me ...GOAAARRRNNN STOKE !!!!
New at halftime we'd come back and win, look at the quality we can bring off the bench now.
M.O.M 1st half - Salif was quality, suprisingly
Overall gotta be Jones again, 4 in 4 is that ???? Collins was class aswell !

Mark Hughes comments made out he's just ended his career???!
'Dont no why anyone would do that to a fellow professional'
HHmmmm i think he needs to look at Danny Murphy throwing a football in ryan's face in first half ... hypocrit... wenger no.2
Albeit, late poor tackle.

Walk to the game down the side of the canal, even though this is a longer route. Stand at front row to watch the players warm up, but MUST be in my seat 30 rows back as the flag is carried up onto the Boothen End. Never at any point of the game go downstairs for drinks, food, or use of the toilets, no matter how much they are needed. Put the stop watch on as soon as the added time bored comes up. |

Good to hear from Pulis, glad they hung onto him, and has a role to play.
He will struggle to get minutes though, despite his talent, let hope he can be fitted in somewhere maybe a different strike force away from home? ?

Sorry to possibly echo what many will be saying on here, but ive watched Stoke through the good and the Very very bad, but this is amazing. Eider Gudjohnsen and Jermaine Pennant I literally thought it would be wilson and salif, these two are different class, signings that are taking us to the next level, the level that some said Pulis will never be able to take us to! I cant believe ill be watchin these players next home game, cannot wait now! I heard sum1 say at the last home game 'im going to try and sell my season ticket after that'! Some people need to get a grip, these are great times for this club!! |
