Found this on the Oatcake yesterday and thought i'd share because most of it applies to a lot of posters on this forum.
I have edited out the swearing
"I'm sorry, i give up with some of the morose, miserable *** *** that hover round this site.

I thought tonight we were good, first half bloody good with a albeit weakened team but still showed Stoke fight and grit. The fans were fantastic and they were the only ones I could here on TV in West Africa.

I even took a call from my old man who was at the game with a few of my other relatives and he's been all over with Stoke even in the 70's to Amsterdam and loved every minute of the experience today, including the game for some of you morbid ***.

For those who keep on about forget the past and look now, ok, but, I remember the good days at Wycombe many moons ago and the bad days at Swindon. I love it now and can't wait to come back to the UK in the summer so I can finally purchase a season ticket and watch my team week in week out.

I'll always back the team and whoever is on the pitch, but some of you on here don't deserve any success and really need to get a grip of yourselves and see where we are compared to a few seasons ago.

Believe me, I've been in the forces for well over 2 decades and to keep the support up for Stoke in the never ending piss taking of the Army has been hard, but a macabre pleasure, especially now that we are noticed more often and get up other supporters noses more often. I love the underdog spirit and the back to the walls mindset that I can tell others to *** off, we're Stoke and a proper team with proper fans, not gloryhunting ****ers that some on here sound like.

But, reading some of this garbage on her is stomach churning and I'm off for a while.

Some of you may say good riddence, but I don't care, as long as real fans with Stoke at heart keep supporting the lads and the manager.

The nouveau riche newbies and arseholes can do one and take their moaning, negative attitudes somewhere else. *** me, if some of you guys won £10m on the lottery you'd moan about not winning £11m."
 
I have had more reincarnations (on here) than Doctor Who, and I just want to say this Professor Pulis is NOT one of them.

So Professor, where do you stand on this debate, or should I say in a true academic sense,

This House states that Tony Pulis is a complete and utter tosspot who does not care for 'this football club' OR 'this football club's fans" and should be dismissed forthwith.

Are ye for or against this motion?
 
Again the poster seems to miss the point. No one would ever suggest that we shouldn't support the team and nor would anyone suggest that regardless of the result it will have been a great experience for travelling fans who may never experienced the competition or foreign cultures in the past!

The point is that its not about a piss up, its about being proffessional and playing to our best potential whether that be 1st or last!
 
Oh and another point! Everyone is laughing there bollocks off at AVB and Chelsea because he wont play his best team and there results are poor! Yet TP is a master because the "payers worked ard" and we on lost 2-0 over the two legs? Have a word with yourselves!
 
Another poster wearing blinkers. Yes we are all grateful from where we have come and yes we are grateful to Pulis for getting us here. The only thing that irks me is that the man in charge Mr P cannot take us any further and does not care about the Stoke fans whatsoever and constantly mugs us off.
I too can quote extracts from other sources and this was one from last nights evening Sentinel -

http://www.thisisstaffordshire.co.uk/Potters-need-belief/story-15295832-detail/story.html


I FOUND Martin Smith's column (Sentinel, Feb 2) particularly interesting. It concerns Stoke City's abysmal away record against the 'big six'.

I found it absorbing because we have played with fear and trepidation in these matches and Stoke could do better if we played with more belief.

I have a theory concerning Tony Pulis's mindset. It is well-known he was a journeyman player in the lower leagues, for which there is no disgrace.

But having never trod the boards as a player at the 'big six' regularly, now he finds himself taking teams there. It is all very daunting for him, perhaps he is even starstruck and in awe.

It is the only reason for the dire, negative tactics Stoke employ on these grounds, and even TP's constant references to top players (or even top, top), top manager, top stadium etc. I am waiting for him to inform us of the top club shop of forthcoming opponents, or even top, top burger vans!

We are not interested Mr Pulis, only that Stoke City try to win every time they play.

NOW? having read that link Nicky ..

I wish I had kept my mouth well and truly SHUT... NOT on your'e effin nelly. I remember playing Ajax and the other teams. Put it this way... Greenhoff and Hudson etc would have played Valencia off the pitch END OF.

He's right about going to grounds where 1500 plus a sheepdog used to turn up. I was ONE of those FANS. I also remember going to Carlisle for one night game finishing work early and it effin snowed and the end we stood in was roofless. I think there we're more sheep in the field behind that end that fans.. that guy (poster) needs to get a grip. I notice HOW he say's. " I can't wait to come home and have a season ticket" TRY watching it every week. Then I will listen to him not before.

Or is it Tony Pulis talking too himself? That is the first sign of madness.

This is a forum and we can WHINGE all we like.
 
Damn right they would Potts.
My bad Stoke night way back was at a freezing gale swept Leyton Orient match during February, the terrace behind one goal was railway sleepers on a mud bank!

And we lost 3 -1 I think, must be way over 50 years ago !!!

Morning Nicky

That game at Leyton Orient was before my time .. I'm pushing 60 but Jesus did they have floodlights back then? Hope you didn't slip on one of those sleepers <laugh>
 
Nowhere near my first game(which was Everton at home in 68 and Roy Vernon scored), but I think the worst that I have felt was having slid all the way down the Mud Bank at the old Wigan ground after Alan Ball's team had just been duffed 4-0. Compared to Ball, Pulis is indeed the Welsh Mourinho!
