No, you wouldn't, would you? Except for most of the Stoke fans in the pub where we were sat (with one other blue family over the other side, the lovely ones who's grandad came over offering a puff of his heart spray after Dzeko's goal ;D ) who screamed with joy when QPR scored and were shaking their heads at the end. Hate living here.
I live in Stoke on Trent too actually. The bullshit about money ruining the game is just annoying as fuck. Ive been to a few Stoke games as a proverbial neutral. They call Disneyland "The Happiest Place on Earth", the Britannia Stadium is the complete opposite. All they do is give the referee shit, and they chanted "boring" when Valencia were passing it around. I remember some old guy trying to convince me that Stoke were outplaying them. Fucking hell.
Unbelievable! So it's not just me then! I live in Stafford and when I went into my sixth form common room yesterday, everybody was congratulating me, saying how happy they were for us, Chelsea, Arsenal, West Brom, Wolves, Villa, Birmingham, Newcastle, everyone, except the fucking Stoke fans! They were all miserable! I really don't understand it, I was getting 'yeah but you bought it though didn't you'. Incredible.
Yesterday wasn't just a victory for us, it was a victory for football. It shows that arrogance comes back to bite you on the arse, and it shows that if you support your club through thick and thin then maybe one day a rich Arab man will descend upon your club and make your dreams come true.
