I thought Shawcross was lucky not to see Red for that stud up 'tackle' on Koscielny. He could have seriously injured him. I also thought it was funny to see him crying to the ref about Arsenal timewasting.
Ironic moment of the day.Being told by the Stoke fans that our support was ****ing ****.Stoke didn't take a full allocation of tickets for the game,not only that they couldn't even sell the tickets they were given.I can safely say that their's is the smallest support that i've seen for a home game this season
Shame that you could only win by a deflection so the score should have been 0-0,how boring of both teams. At least Arsenal did better than Wales.
Everything about Stoke is ****y, their managers post match comments against our players is the biggest load of horse **** i've seen. It was a LEGIT GOAL so I don't know what the **** that ****'s complaining about. The ****'s just mad that even after the physical approach, that his sh!t thug of a team still lost.
People often laugh at Wenger with the 'I didn't see it' stuff, but his post match quote was as pathetic as I've heard from a manager. It'll never be held against him though.
Only saw MOTD highlights of the game and I have to say we looked in control and there was that urgency again in our play that we have been screaming for. From what I saw Nacho looks like he's played for us a couple of seasons already and even though its early days he has a calmness about him similar to when Sagna arrived. As for Stoke and Tony Syphulis I don't understand how this guy has not been brought to book for the tactics his team employs particularly against us. His philosophy seems to be if you can't get 3pts then take a souvenir (a leg ) home with you. Good win for us in what is never an easy game physically.
Us Stoke fans hold it against him! There's a thread on our board "It's always everybody elses fault and never Pulis'." We dislike him almost as much as you guys...
Giroud seems to get shut down against the big teams...and the overly physical ones that the PL is famous for, such as Stoke. Must say I agree with you, Giroud is not the answer.
Cym whilst Pulis remains our manager you will see less and less Stoke fans travelling away. I have now given up as well going away from home. What's the point of watching him park the bus only to hope that we may grab a lucky goal. Then when it goes titts up like it always does bring on 3 attackers in the last 5 minutes to try and grab a goal. It's toss mate and 80% of Stoke fans want him gone!
Waddo I think it's nearer 90% S^^t tactics yet again. As for saying we deserved a point. Gunners you are RIGHT. He's a disgrace to the club and the fans we're all saying it! Good luck for the rest of the season.
Cym if you read most Stoke forums " The Oatcake" being the main one you will see that most "honest" Stoke fans have had enough mate. There are still a few (look where he has bought us disciples), but even them are waning fast. Pulis is a professional con man that has been blagging his way this far forward with the promise of better things to come. I'm sorry Mr pulis but we do have better players than when we were promoted but they cannot play the ****e football that is being asked of them! I've just read some stats on our first 5 seasons in the prem against the so called top 4 sides in the prem Played 20 W0 D0 L20 F6 A55 GD-49 PTS 0 Goals Per Game:0.3 Goals Against Per Game: 2.75 Out of the last 22 away games we have won just one and that was against Westbrom who we always beat! ^ That is worthy of a sacking in anyones book!
You would think that now he's established you as a PL team he'd want to progress as you're not going to start as one of the favourites for relegation any time soon.Do remember the quote by Alan Durban when you played us many years ago
Cym was that the "if you want entertainment go and watch a bunch of Clowns quote?" wasn't Durban Welsh as well as Pulis lol bloody Welsh gits ha ha!!!
I was at the game yesterday and my feeling is the system Pulis has employed successfully over the last few seasons is now not working. The old Stoke from Previous seasons had the Physical side very defense minded bit of a 0-0 of 1-0 team but with an eye for a Goal. But the goal threat is now non existent so the beat result for Pulis is a 0-0 draw Premier league football is moving on and Pulis is not keeping up.
That's the one I think it was after a 0-0 draw at our place.I'm sure MOTD said at the time that they were really struggling to show any highlights from the game What is it with Welsh manegers and **** football Durban,Pulis,Mark Hughes
