Fair do's I can remember the first time I heard Delilah done by TJ away at Shrewsbury in about 1988 (when we were proper poop) - Peter Beagrie scored a late winner from memory, saw this shaggy haired bloke climbing up a floodlight pylon and a mass of people responding to his chants before the...

Was a bit of a pisstake to be honest, was good fun doing it though :-) Doubt we will ever see it again - "immitation is the greatest form of flattery" etc and all that jazz. Can honestly day that after Crouch scored (and the minute or so of disbelief at what I had seen) and the...

Re: Your Team vs Stoke Alright boys, still browse since I joined before the cup final, like to see how you guys are doing as you seem (in the majority) a decent lot I'm amazed you have 9 pages of how to beat Stoke :-) Does that mean we have arrived? lol Home form hasnt been what it was...

Years ago mate it would have been the last game of the season! Its only the greedy FA that mean we still have games left now. I think it would be perfectly fine for City to wait for Stoke to do one tonight after the game then come back out for the fans with it, don't rub our noses n it before...

Thats the attitude SO69 :-) Thats how the mighty fall my friend - you cannot take any game as an easy ride in this league, or you come a cropper (as Arsenal and Liverpool seem to find out at the Brit) Yes you are nailed on favourites to win the game and SHOULD do so, but playing half heartedly...

Alan Ball - took us both to our lowest ebbs.... The only credit he will get from me is for resigning The strange twisted fates of our clubs means he was sacked from you after a defeat at...Stoke City.....a rip roaring 2-1 win for us if memory serves - was a cracking atmpsphere at the Vic that...

Evening boys Congrats on yesterday, not the best match ever but you did what was needed and outplayed us, we didn't really perform as we can but as mentioned by one of you, we have a paper thin squad and the efforts of the past 9 games and injuries to key players really affected us No Fuller...

Harsh. Living in the last bastions of North Staffordshire (Biddulph, on the border with Congleton) we try to defend our county from the infidels from Cheshire, we even used to have a castle on the county line. However if you suggest to anybody to travel to Macclesfield, you may get a sharp...

Cheers boys - it will be an experience! Congrats on last night, was cheering you on :-) And hoping the ref might dish a few reds out, but that was churlish! Looking forward to Saturday now, even if we only have half a side left lol Good days for both of us - a far cry from 1999! If somebody...

Amen Brother!

"BNP Stronghold"..... Don't let the facts get in the way of your rantings my friend :-) (From the Beeb - yesterdays elections) Stoke-on-Trent seats at a glance Party Amount Seats Labour 56.7% 34 Conservative 3.3% 2 British National Party 0% 0 Liberal Democrat 0% 0 Others 13.3% 8 I'm a...

What colour scheme you guys hoping for? Like your white one with the diagonal stripe down (like one of our retro ones from the 70s) Do you tend to stick to one or two colours? Also liked your Red / Black stripes (a bit like the one above but AC rather than Inter....) Not sure how you can...

You have to admit thats a pretty cool away kit though :-) Have mine already!

Says we have been given extra on top of our 25,082 allocation (but not how many), but does now guarantee that anybody in our 'silver' scheme (non season ticket holders who attend regular games) are going to get one, and 'foundation' members (who aren't season ticket holders - these guys pay into...

Only for a bit of friendly banter my friend before the final. I bear no grudges or malice towards you chaps, I'm pleased both have reached it and one of us will get to win something for a change! Reactions of sensitive folk on both boards are a bit silly, schoolground insults typed in without...

That comes from being stuck in the centre of Manchester, Birmingham and Nottingham mate, its bound to cause problems! [Insert your own 'Shameless' reference here when talking about the ugly stick]

Take a chill pill dudes, its all a bit of fun :-) I've seen worse punk bands over the years with far worse lyrics! Probably even played in some lol

Harsh Not really sure where all the hatred of Stoke comes from, we are only 30 mins down the road, its not really a 'shithole', I've always thought manyh parts of Manc and Stoke were pretty much on a par, especially around your old stomping ground. Bar a few seasons where we were both shit not...

Re: Tony Pulis Nope :-) It sounds like some American newspaper article using bits they found on the web lol

Re: It had to be Stoke!!! Yep he did - I had a good drink in the workingmens club somewhere on the Moss Side estate pretending to be Scottish :-) - when you need a drink, any port in a storm! We have both been through some fairly shit times, good that one of us at least will win something...
