    Lifting that, an appointment as dull as Stoke itself

    Just an insight into the club under Alex Neil from John Percy:

    “As results nosedived, during the November international break the players were given a week off and it is alleged that Neil went to Dubai on holiday. On their return Stoke lost three on the bounce, conceding nine goals.

    The mood at the training ground was low. The departure of popular coaches Kevin Russell, Danny Pugh and Jimmy Hunter did not go down well with some.”

    He's an arrogant prick - taking a holiday instead of working with the players. His ego has gone off the chart since he got us promoted and another club headhunted him

    I remember a game against them at the SOL under McCarthy when they brough just over 100 up. About 112 someone reckoned.

    Swansea should keep tabs on their manager, Stoke chairman will have been kissing his hoop promising him the world afterthought match if last time they were in the manager hunt is anything to go by!
