Re: really pisses me off

We're struggling to keep possession no doubt. It comes with time, they will get better i'm sure of it.

i am referring to the stoke fans reaction to every misplaced pass we make

Short sharp passing would work a lot better, and the long punt up field when we are under large amounts of pressure at the back.

Cheer at every misplaced pass/miskick. Cheer every foul their team make. Go fucking mad, waving arms at every tackle made by opposition as their players fling themselves to the floor like they've been hit by a snipers bullet and shout handball every time the ball hits a player above the waist.

If i remember rightly that is what we used to do when teams like Chelsea/Arsenal came to COMS, now we are getting it coz of all the money we have spent. It fucking winds me up as well!!

I've been saying this since Keegan's time - if we could only hang on to the ball for 5% more of the game we would be doing team's serious damage! And possession that counts - not sideways passing across the back!

I sense a tad of bitterness?

We (Stoke fans) are just passionate mate, as are our players.

100% committed and passionate.

With the talent you have in your team, you’d only need 10% of what we have in terms of that kind of spirit and you’d go far.

As it is, you look very disjointed and uninterested on the pitch.

We matched you with 10 men for god’s sake!

You should be expecting more from your team after spending hundreds of millions of squid!!

we are a massive (dont start) game for clubs like stoke, we need to look at the way uni*ed and chelsea deal with the smaller teams for whom we are a cup final and learn. hat off to the stoke fans although last night was quite quiet compared to last season.

If you call 'matching' getting 10 men behind the ball, then well done. Lots of teams adopt this tactic when down to 10 men, its extremely hard to play against.
