[Hawky]

I'm a Leeds/ Everton fan.

I'm a Leeds/ Everton fan.

[eFestivals]

How can you be a fan of Leeds/Everton?

perhaps he likes not having much money?

[adam1234]

Every away game, they'd set up for a point.

Imagine being a Stoke Fan...... zzzzzz

[thetime]

Sparky is doing a decent job

[Hawky]

I'm from Leeds... love Leeds.

Dad supports Everton and I've followed em since I was a kid.

Hence I like Leeds/ Everton.

[eFestivals]

Sparky is doing a decent job wit the squad he inherited

It's when his own players are a big chunk of the squad that you need to start to worry.

[Hawky]

I'm 20, so I'm not a glory hunter Haha.

[DomDom1984]

I hate that "imagine supporting such and such a team" attitude.

I support a team that have won two games all season, drawn four and are doomed for relegation when next season we could have had the travelling support of Hearts and Rangers hitting us, and instead will be getting crap all season.

Now ask me if I'd even consider the idea of supporting another side.

In my 20 years as a Leeds fan I've seen it all Haha! Champions league! to league one. But I still attended when I could afford to. I suppose you could say I support Leeds and follow Everton.

[eFestivals]

Haha. He won't have money to spend at stoke which might negate the problem.

he's already bought Stephen Ireland.

Which rather proves my point.

[Hawky]

That assaidi has scores some cracking goals for Stoke.

[eFestivals]

That assaidi has scores some cracking goals for Stoke.

he's a Liverpool player.

[Hawky]

But he's on loan at stoke...

[DomDom1984]

Yeah, I don't really see what the point of pointing out his parent club was.

[eFestivals]

Get the point now? It's not his own player.

[LondonTom]

This dispatches episode is grim viewing. Far too many knuckle dragging football fans, combined with crap policing and stewarding.

[DomDom1984]

Oh right. So it was Liverpool that ordered Mark Hughes to take him. Gotcha.

[eFestivals]

Oh right. So it was Liverpool that ordered Mark Hughes to take him. Gotcha.

no, Hughes picked up a freebie from which there's no pressure or reflection back onto what he does. No one gets slated for a bad loan signing, just as no one gets credit for a good loan signing.

When Hughes opens the wallet, the money flies out but the team gets worse.

[DomDom1984]

Well, Pieters has hardly been a disaster either? And he splashed decent cash for him. Arnautovic certainly isn't a downgrade on what he had either.

Fair enough on Odemwingie ( although given that he had a good record in the EPL once upon a time, it's a decent risk for a player exchange ) and Ireland, but you find me a manager that doesn't bring in duds, and I'll show you my ten foot cock.

[eFestivals]

I'm not saying that others don't do poor signings, I'm saying that Hughes does more shite than others.

Come back in a year or so and tell me he's doing fine. Here's betting you'll find him unemployed or Stoke in the relegation zone at that time.

[strummer77]

What a load of absolute rubbish! What the stoke haters don't seem to understand is that you are making us stronger. The more hate we get the stronger we are, the more passionate the fans are. It creates a feeling that it is us against the world and everybody is against us. I just hope it continues because it gives us an extra edge.

The media created a monster that everybody bought into. It's pretty ridiculous really if you watched stoke v arsenal at the weekend stoke were the better side and played good football. This is against an arsenal side who are supposed to be one of the best football sides in Europe.

[pink_triangle]

You don't hear that very often.
