I know its mid week and with shef wed away but I would be disappointed if we didnt make a 1000 its a crucial game for us. It’s live on Sky also 600 is a fantastic effort Red button or main game?

I heard yesterday that he’s been in Dubai warm weather training as he recovers from an injury.It would fit in with him not arriving for home games in the last month or so along with Daniel Johnson Why would people spread such absolute bollocks? He’s clearly at the club because he thanked Junho for his gift, as did a lot of the players, only 2 days ago 🤷♂️

He glides over the ground just like Bojan did.
His ceiling is likely to be a very high one. Goals and goal involvements are his next step but it feels like they are coming.

Mmaee was outstanding. Hope he’s fit for midweek Looked like hamstring so presume out for the season? I thought calf and I watchedhim all the way down the touch line. The limp got less pronounced as he reached the tunnel. Hopefully just a touch of cramp

He certainly seemed to land on formula's that worked having persisted with his shitter signings for far too long. See Ameobi, Griffin at right back, Steven Pearson, Dean Whitehead instead of Whelan and the absolutely woeful Charlie Adam/Peter Crouch combo.
Had we completed the key centre forward signing he wanted, our history may well have been a lot different. We wanted Dexter Blackstock and got Ricardo Fuller

Carson was absolutely useless and his decision to choose wba almost certainly saved us from an inevitable relegation First choices that season were him and Anthony Gardner. We got Sorro and Faye instead. "better to be lucky than good" was certainly something that could be levelled at Pulis on many an occasion.

Didn't we take 6,000 odd there on our first day back in this division in 2002? Can't see them giving us every possible ticket given the stakes of the game. They'll probably want to limit our support a bit so I reckon this will be it now. It may even have been more than that but it was absolute chaos around Sheffield with Stoke fans running amok and causing mayhem

Goran Popov all set to sign on loan then "apparently" work permit refused. Deadline day signs for WBA with a work permit. Allegedly TP saw him play and then changed his mind. He actually saw him train 😂

Some of the absolute throbbers on here need to grow up, SS and the players getting dogs abuse at HT during a relegation battle ffs. I honestly believe some of you would love us to go down, SS has inherited another shite group of players, Ricky Martin has left. Give the bloke some time to build a squad fir Christ's sake. Our only aim now is to stay in this league, sick and tired of absolute throbbers thinking they are the next pep. Grow up. What dogs abuse did they get and from what part of the ground? I heard nothing from the Sentinel stand at all. No boos. Very few claps. They did get a very nice welcome back onto to the pitch from the Sentinel Stand, particularly Leris and Hoever who were on the touchline by the stand.

There isn't a single decent side in the league. They are all crap including us and including Ipswich, Leeds and Leicester. All of them can look good on any given day but largely they are rubbish teams playing in a lousy league full of crap, ourselves included. It's why setting up to stifle the opposition against any team at home will always result in frustrations being expressed. Setting up to match the physical aspect of a Huddersfield team without a win in god knows how long was pretty stupid and the first half performance was an obvious outcome. The only surprise was that we actually started the first 5-10 minutes pretty well. The league is crap. Put some footballers on the pitch (no Leris, Thompson and Ennis) and we might even look half decent ourselves on occasion. Firstly what’s that got to do with the refs🤷♂️and secondly you’re totally wrong about the championship It has nothing to do with refs and everything to do with the “taking a draw” comments. The only decent sides I’ve seen since we came down are Bielsa’s Leeds side and Fulham. The rest have been crap in reality

What’s this stuff about him apparently reporting 90 minutes late for duty yesterday? Anything in it or made up shite? Seen on twitter. Given the stance Schumacher took last time you would have thought if it was true he wouldn’t have been involved at all. Especially if it was 90 minutes late, if it was just 10/20 minutes I suppose being dropped to the bench could be seen as punishment. I wasn’t expecting him to start both the games anyway with him not long being back from injury Well he turned up at around 1.35, 30 minutes after the rest of the players had arrived and admitted to supporters he was "running late". At best he was 35 minutes late but given that the players generally meet at CW for a pre-match meal and meeting, if he didn't make that then he was 90 minutes late. It's not great whichever way you look at it, assuming it's true. There is some reports that our Muslim players have been given some kind of leeway around meeting times, particularly if food is involved, due to Ramadan.

When baker and Laurent play together, it always amazes me that baker plays deeper with Laurent generally being the more advanced. Given the attributes of both you’d think it would be the other way around. It was a game of two halves for Laurent today, first half he was the worst player on the pitch as a No. 10 and second half as a deep lying midfield player he was the best player on the pitch. I really have no idea what Baker's best position is. Well he’s the only person in the team capable of shooting so I’d suggest a position where he may find himself relatively close to the opposition goal as often as possible may be a start?

I am not doubting what you say in the slightest but that begs the question was he 90 minutes late or did he somehow get lost on the way from CW to the stadium? Will we ever find out mate🤷♂️ I quite like him as a player (maybe coz the others are so shit) but it feels like we need to get safe then get shut

So we assuming he missed the pre match meal at CW and simply reported to the ground 30 minutes after the rest of the squad? I’m not assuming anything mate,I’m just telling you he arrived 35 minutes after the other players I am not doubting what you say in the slightest but that begs the question was he 90 minutes late or did he somehow get lost on the way from CW to the stadium?

They meet at CW before home games for pre match food don’t they before making way up to ground. Is 1.35pm late? Team sheet goes in at 2pm. Yes apparently they do but the rest of the players were there by 1pm which is the norm of late for home games.Maybe that didn’t happen today🤔who knows but Maaee was definitely late and it was also different for Schumacher to arrive with his family.May d with it being Easter Monday it was different today🤷♂️ Also injured players also start arrive around 1-45/2pm which included Gooch and Junior today. Didn’t see Wesley,Pearson or Johnson today So we assuming he missed the pre match meal at CW and simply reported to the ground 30 minutes after the rest of the squad?

Is 1.35pm late? Team sheet goes in at 2pm.

It was good to see his Mrs and 2 kids accompany him to the game for the 1st time today and he also must have posed for photos with fans for at least 20 minutes on his arrival Who we talking about now? Schuey or Mmaee?

Our home form is a huge problem, nobody is denying that but Schumacher seems to be carrying the can for the two previous charlatans He was asked today about going behind at home and how that was the first time we’d got something from a home game after going behind bench he wasn’t aware of People are trying to make an issue out of a nothing interview mate in order to back up their stance That’s pathetic and embarrassing He’s inexperienced at handling a big fan base and being in the spotlight when things aren’t going well Maybe some constructive feedback from within the club, when mentioning the fans could help him out to avoid any unintentional misunderstanding A frustrating start to a stressful fixture where he was probably wanting Mmaee to start ? Late for the game? Not an ideal situation for team morale Be good to see him smile now and then Mmaee was late for the game?

A little dig in both the Radio Stoke and official club interview. Pretty needless, especially when our fans are no different to any others, and that's the first time we've equalised at home for 16 months "It's not an easy place when the crowd turn against you and sometimes we can go under" "It's not easy here, especially here at home. If you concede a gaol, the crowd get really frustrated and it's not easy. I'm walking off getting screamed at. So it's not easy for me or the players. So to respond the way we did was pleasing" He’s so far out of his depth it’s untrue. If he thinks it’s hard to play in todays atmosphere, keeping picking shite like Leris and Ennis and he’ll really see how hard it can be.
