It is appalling from the owner but yet again it just goes to show that the people who are supposed to do 'fit and proper' work or ensure the safeguarding of these clubs do absolutely nothing and just stand idly by. As put in the statement Bury was an omen of what can and is happening all over the EFL but they're just doing nothing about it. Reading isn't the most impressive or historic club by any means, but their fans don't deserve to have to sit there while people with no connection or affection for it destroy it in front of their eyes. Selling the training ground leaves them with virtually no assets and makes selling them almost impossible as the owners will still want a sizeable fee despite this and means they'll just keep draining it dry. We might be shit but we won't have to worry about shit like this for a while at least. For those who want the Coates family out of Stoke, this is what most clubs with foreign owners end up going through, asset stripped for greed

"What's the irony?" To quote our most celebrated poster... "It's really obvious to see if you want to." I can see clearly thanks. Harry Kane continues to make teams worse. Please for your own well being. just stop now. Bayern.

There is some truth to what Bayern is saying. In a truly big game ie France in the world cup, his messing about dropping deep meant early doors France could squeeze up and they looked dangerous. The same happened after we equalized. He should stay up top for England. I would think opposing centre half's would be happier if he stayed up top, they would know exactly where he was and can keep a close eye on him. All this dropping deep trying to pull a cb out of position, creating space for others to run into, centre backs not sure where the next threat is coming from, who to mark, ridiculous kane, just stand in one place so we can lump the ball up to you. Basic dave Bassett tactics at their best.

Great for the club and see all the positives but it ruining the game for me. 1. we tend not to do well when the offer game, only remember the Blackpool game as a positive. 2. Now more spare seats around my area/ground in general it is now like a kindergarden session with little ones running up and down gangways and parents not being able to control them at times shouting/ getting up and down every two minutes. I would have a ticket in the family stand if i wanted my viewing of the game interupted all game. I have taken my kids when they were very young and know its hard to keep kids who just want to play under control and entertained but respected other fans. I just want to concentrate on the game and be vocal. Mr Grumpy signing out. Sounds like the pie brigade, Arrive 10 mins late, shuffling along row looking for seat. Leave 10 minutes before half time to get at front of pie queue. Return to seat 10 mins late pie in hand, Leave 25 mins into 2nd half for toilet time, Back to seat, missed 1 goal but not to concerned, Leave 1o mins early from end of game, beat the queue. Miss the 2nd goal. Sad but true.

Can he just play one game for them , still qualify for national service exemption? I think he has to win a medal I've got a Bridgnorth 5 a side league, challenge cup 3rd place medal from 1996, would that count. I don't mind posting it to him

Surprised by that didn't expect 5 at the back.
Campbell lone striker?
Not alot of defensive cover on bench, Thompson and Leris at a push.

As long as everyone’s fit to start I’d go the same team but probably Thompson in for Gooch. Then hopefully we actually have a left back fit in Stevens for next week. Thompson will be needed for the midfield role usually when Burger goes off on the hour mark. Gooch at LB for me until Stevens is back

I welcome the start of safe standing, which alot of stoke fans have wanted. Personally I would keep seats in the new corner location for the away fans and creat 2 safe standing areas at the back of the south stand and boothen end purely for home fans.. If we ever get back to the Premier with big away followings we could end up with all the south stand and corner being away fans with safe standing while the whole of the home stands would still be all seaters. If we ever get back into the PL, there is not a chance in hell away supporters will get the whole of the south stand and the corner. Why would we do that when we will easily be able to sell those seats to home supporters? But they would need more than the corner. So less safe standing area for home fans however you look at it..

Should’ve been done in the boothen end. It’ll be a sparsely populated part of the ground following this. Final nail in the coffin.

The first yellow was ridiculous, setting him up for a second yellow which was something he probably had to do if it was a bookable offence at all. Don’t be a twat and kick the ball away and put yourself in the ref’s mind as a player he needs to watch….like bloody ground hog day though. He deliberatedly blocks a player with the ball not even close by. Yes that's a sending off by all standards. Unless it's the carabo cup final and your names Endo!

If Plymouth get relegated, how can you blame that on Schumacher? When he left them, they were well clear of the relegation spots. Its a fact he will have a aged two relegated teams for roughly half their games this season whichever way you call it , it says hes a relegation manager at this level if it happens. Plymouth were always going to low down in the Championship, they all would of expected this season to be tough. and to finish 1 place above relegation will be success for them and there 2 managers this season If we finish 1 place above relegation we'll all be disappointed in the season, after spending heavily again we will demand answers and probably a few more sackings to follow RM. Think your comments are a little short sighted and not really giving a reflection of expectations at both clubs

If Saints do get promoted this season, do you think there is a chance he could go out on loan next season? If so, would you want Stoke to take a punt on him? No I want us to get our own striker, develop him and improve him for benefit of scfc not to benefit another club.

Is this the club we’ve now become Yep, our support is split. We should unite as 1 and show what our support can be like. Unfortunately we have to many who just want to do there own thing and not be part of a bigger support group. Out support was split over the last few seasons beyond any form of repair by the blockheads from block 19 singing and clapping at 100mph, and there pathetic IRA songs. The rest of the boothen refused to join in with them and the split was born. Gone are the days of one section leading and the rest following. Every body wants to be top dog now and do there own thing. United strength is stronger!

I've been in shops, cafes pubs and the female staff have called me luv, sweet, darling, so far I've been able to carry on my life without having some kind of woke meltdown.
Yep, the world has gone mad...well not the whole world just the left side and media

If he's fit and looking decent in training, I would be tempted to put him in a 3 with Rose and Wilmot. He's a danger from set plays and a decent organiser, and would give us balance on that side with his left foot.. Another player who becomes better in our mind the less he plays

Just like Bae, there’s a great player in there. Hopefully just abit of time Not sure he'll be a great player, will need a lot of work to be comfortable with his right foot or defenders will soon work him out. Over to the scfc coaches and the lad himself if he wants to improve his game threat. Saying that he did at least look like he can put a pass through for the striker to run onto. A skill weve been void of for far to long.

I actually feel sorry for the Coates family. They appoint managers in good faith they will be successful, they back them financially far greater than majority of championship teams,they don't stick their noses in and they give managers freedom to run football matters. It all goes wrong despite all this, they have to cough up to pay off the management team and the cycle starts again....they must be praying please let us finally pick a winner.

He must be completely besides himself with stress, frustration and worry.

Has SJW done his coaching badges? UEFA A and B I think bud Many are saying SS is not experienced enough for the job, don't see how appointing SJW as manager would ease those fears.

I was at that final game against Leicester i even shed a tear , now , oh my , i feel like our club is falling into the darkest deepest abyss with no way out ,what do we do , where do we go , i feel like crying but i'm totally numb with the disbelief to what's happening to our beloved club , gonna have a beer and try and get some light relief on my birthday but somehow i won't stop thinking about it Bolton, Pompey. It looks like you can add Stoke to the list of Premier clubs who have fell down the divisions. Like you I'm in disbelief how we've got so many things wrong so often We've backed every manager with good money season after season bit it just doesn't work out.

Who do you replace him with though? the other options on the bench are even worse Gooch Gooch..... He was embarrassing last time he played full back, gave ghe winger so much room and time he lit a cigarette before he put his crosses in, 2 of which led to Blackburn goals.

Think this could be a masterstroke... Fuckwit out Hero in. If this is part of a cull to sort out the toxicity at our Club then I'm all for it. Who knows? But at least JC is being proactive. Reckon SS might be feeling a tad better tonight?? I think your right about the cull of toxicity, a new man who wants the best for the club close to his heart, no history and cliques to hide behind. He'll we able to talk to all employees at all levels with no prejudice,no one worrying about what they say to him In case it comes back to bite them. He'll be able to build a picture of whose pulling in the right direction and who needs shifting out.. he might even give mmae a body check to show what a real forward is all about
