Not exactly a 'hands off' www.stokesentinel.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/stoke-city-transfer-news-live-4536973No James McClean in first two league games, whispers of a move to Celtic - do you want to put that to bed?MON: I think that’s probably just a rumour that’s been created by someone - and it certainly hasn’t come from our end. James isn’t a player, equally, that we are looking to lose at this minute in time. The nature of the transfer window is such that you have to be flexible and if any situation arises with any player you have to give it consideration, particularly where we are at this minute in time. We have to obviously deal with the rules of Financial Fair Play and deal with too a squad which is bloated. James is no different from any other player in the squad and if the situation arose we’d have to consider it but at this minute in time, I think that would be highly unlikely. Depending where we look like ending up financially near the end of the window, it might become a "come and get me".
Please.
Edit:
Could actually see Mince going there too.Pissing myself at “mince” name ...totally brilliant 😀👍

I want to know what Mikel and Badou had to eat at the Harvester. It’s all part of the mystery sighting. Maybe they were “mystery diners” ...

I know that some of the gadgets used to monitor the players, often mean they are told to stop and rest ...I think they need to bin the gadgets and pre seasons in Dubai or wherever..as we are usually dreadful when the lads have been to those type of places. Do it the old fashioned way ...the Waddo used to get them running up trentham hills, occasionally some beach ..In .Wales and they had to run up and down the sand dunes..Play a game of footy in the soft dry sand, then a run down the beach and back....The gym set up was like the one Rocky Balboa used when he fought the Russian.. (It’s all sounding a bit monty python now ). 😀

Macca is one of our better players ...don’t understand why he deserves any criticism, he works aard, gets stuck in, not frightened to take players on..and puts plenty of crosses in..gets back to help defend ...I think he’s exactly the sort of player we need to get out of this division...

Obviously Campbell and Powell will rightly get plaudits but I thought Batth and Cousins were superb. totally agree

My Dad ...we moved in 1967 when Tony Waddington sealed the deal and signed dad for the club,. Stoke City was like one big family, the fans were amazing, dad loved the atmosphere.and the people and we made it our home.

I don't know who sprayed the original but I do know who redid it on the new wall they put up when they redeveloped that bit of the A500 in the early 2000s... With reference to another post on here, was it Banksy? Can confirm it was not Banksy, as he was referred to as ‘Mrs Mills’ in our house ( for the young’’uns on here, she was a pianist of sorts ) plus we didn’t have that colour spray paint.😱

One of the greatest, if not the greatest footballer player the world has ever seen, a lovely man whom I’ve been privileged to meet, hope he recovers, such a legend !

Great to see the crowd showing a bit more appreciation now as well and even singing his name! totally agree, I think McClean has been brilliant, he works hard and gets plenty of crosses in, he’s not frightened to go at defenders and take’em on ..

No fight in him, and no end product...he’s frustrating to watch...and the fact he’s moved on from so many clubs surely indicates summat’s not right eh ?

It was very moving, it bought a tear or two from me seeing dad up there. Well done and a big thank you to Stoke City, And as for the fans...The best fans in the world Stokies bar none ...dad played his heart out for the fans he never forgot his working class roots and the way stoke city fans made him feel welcome.
Oh yes and the roar from the Boothen end ....what a sound !!

I do hope so ...I’m a bit fed up of manager after manager ...Mon seems to have things under control ...keep it simple and get the team spirit and confidence back in the squad ....get rid of the negative players who try to influence the rest and cause trouble .....he’s seems to a very professional manager ...and very open and honest...fingers crossed I think he’s a “keeper” ..👍

The frequency of players showing glimpses of good form then suddenly losing their ability to sustain that form and turn to shit. I'm starting with Bauer in this OP but it may have started before his arrival. Bauer came in, and turned in some real good performances leaving us feeling pretty confident we'd found a gem, overnight he completely reversed that form. Since then we have seen similar reversals, BMI, Baath, Edwards, CCV, Woods (twice), Ince and most recently Gregory and Cousins and there are probably more you could add. Until the club find out what the cause is, each and every manager is going to have an incredibly bumpy ride, as this as been happening through five managers now and is still causing concern today. I believe it is a dressing room issue but who or what is the cause I have no idea. totally agree it’s usually around the 2nd or 3rd week, summat drains the spirit and enthusiasm Out of them ...not to mention any footy skills they may have possessed .

Ince is a show pony with absolutely no end product...pointless extravagance..can’t tackle, can’t cross ...I’d be surprised if he can lace his own boots up ...
