That is the only time in the Premier league, I think. So I'm with you - about time we got another good result there. Will be tough as Hughes will be setting them up to defend hard - he doesn't like us either since Fabregas had a go at him after a Blackburn match at the Emirates. Something about the fact that Hughes should be ashamed at the style his team were playing as it was not good enough for an ex-Barcelona player. I remember being very amused by it.
Fab asked him "did you really used to play for Barcelona? That was not Barcelona football" apparently. The Stoke fans seem riled about something Ramsey has allegedly said. Any idea what that is?
I'm sure it will be on Oatcake fanzine, they talk more about Ramsey than they do about their own hideous club.
It was something like "Ouch, watch out you clumsy git" when Shawcross 'tackled' him. Take offence easily do the Stoke fans.........
I know they're pissed off because apparently Ramsasy never accepted Shawcross' apology and him putting his fingers to his lips when he scored against them this season really riled them.Wasn't there also something about Flamini threatening to break Shawcross' legs ?
The Flamini thing according to the stoke lot is that after Wilshere had been poorly tackled a few times by one of their players Flamini came over and told him if he kicked Jack again he'll blind him by scooping his eyes out with a spoon....
Told you they took offence too easily............ Is the French version of spooning the same as ours?
cant wait to see them take on Flam - they will **** themselves. film titles to describe the meeting There will be Blood The Arsenal, Stoke, and Stoke women [aka The good the bad and the ugly] Alien v predator
Talking of neanderthals,a Millwall fan from Gosport was yesterday sentenced to 20 months in jail for being involved in the attack on Piebury Corner before the EC game against Napoli
Mate was saying there were a lot of pro EDL songs/chants when they played the Spuds. Nothing racist per say but were I a betting man I reckon you'd find one or two racists in the EDL... Wasn't that Flamini comment, to which there's nothing to back it up I add, aimed at Marc Wilson? Someone who's faked a footballing career (wilson, not Flamini!) for years. Truly, truly an awful player and seemingly only on the pitch to rough up opposing players. It's like they're employing ice hockey tactics by using goons! FWIW I think Stoke actually are making an attempt to play football these days unlike the Pulis era.
The Stoke fans on Oatcake fanzine are not exactly well disposed to French people including Flamini (not unusual I must add), and seem to be stuck in some kind of 13th century time warp where its the British vs French in the hundred year war all over again.
'tis indeed a fearsome place, the Oatcake. I wouldnt wish to venture there after dark.................
