His Mowbray dossier is stuck shut now.
His Mowbray dossier is stuck shut now.Yup. Put it in your Mowbray dossier.
Absolutely loved the bloke at the start of that first season and thought he could do no wrong, but then it all went horribly downhill.
Shame. Nice bloke, but ended up being a poor manager for us.
And his Big Tone doll must be full to brimming.His Mowbray dossier is stuck shut now.
after promotion last yearNot sure he is. Isn't he creeping towards the play-offs with Blackburn. Top of form table ATM.

Never flip flopped.stop flip flopping. you said hes crap. end of
I think he lost interest and the last 1/2 season it was a mistake him staying on.For us!
Poor manager for us. We have other managers who were a success elsewhere, but failed here (Reid, Coleman, Adams etc).
I am talking about for us only.
I used to love Harpo...he was my favouriteI like Ben Stokes. I also liked Chris Stokes and Bram Stoker.
Stoke, not so much.
Harpo Stokes?I used to love Harpo...he was my favourite
Agree.I think he lost interest and the last 1/2 season it was a mistake him staying on.
Persuaded to by Venus but heart wasn't in it & his head wasn't focussed on the task, just going through the motions.
Good for him.Doing well for Blackburn, clearly learnt from the mistakes he made at Coventry.
Where's Zeppo?Before fame.. Harpo, Groucho, Chico, Gummo

Thought he was going to be a great manager and looked that way at first, but ended up being a bad manager.lmao first crap now great manager
you are a joke otis. no conviction in anything you say
Zeppo?Thought he was going to be a great manager and looked that way at first, but ended up being a bad manager.
Very simple to understand. Ultimately he was very poor.
Zeppo was the straight man to CC4L's comedy gold.Is zeppo the Stoke fans name ?
Was a lot younger, probably only 13 or so when that picture was taken.Where's Zeppo?
They look so similar back then don't they. Hard to tell them apart.Was a lot younger, probably only 13 or so when that picture was taken.
Thats the oneHarpo Stokes?
You were one of the hot favourites to go up this season weren't you?Ok, so we may not look like a turmoil club from the outside, and I’m dramatising it is hard to say, but we have some massive issues at this club, mainly poor ethic from the players who seem to think they’re owed the world. We also have two morons at the club who keep messing everything up - Mark Cartwright who, last season, spent a total of I believe £48 million on 3 players (Saido Berahino, Kevin Wimmee & Giannelli Imbula) who, two of which is on loan now and one is a striker who has only netted something rediculous like 3 goals in 40 games (swap for Hiwula and Chaplin? ;pp). The other being Tony Scholes who is a general director, who has generally directed our way into 4 managers in 13 months, 3 consecutive early FA Cup knockouts and a lax attitude to our relegation season. The board discussed the Relegation threat mid way between the 2017/18 season and said ‘they don’t know what all the fuss is about’. We also have the 13th largest losses in the whole of European football despite being what was a mediocre Premier League team and now a mediocre Championship team.
Trust me, you’ll be in the Premier League before we will.
No we were predicted 1st. Though no Stoke fan with a brain legitimately thought we would.You were one of the hot favourites to go up this season weren't you?

Well, if we were a League 1 team I’d agree but we were in the Prem. As I’ve said, I may be dramatising it somewhat, but if the players play bad it doesn’t matter how much you’ve spent. You’d make a better go of the game against Preston than we would.So you had an issue with scouting and the managers spending money? That isn't turmoil.
You have spent more on Afobe than our whole squad (and club) is worth.
Have a word with yourself. Like I said, "Turmoil" and "plight" now seems to be the fashionable thing. Turn Talksport off and back away from the internet.
That's not turmoil or in any way similar to clubs with actual problems.Well, if we were a League 1 team I’d agree but we were in the Prem.

Ohhh I read it as ‘not favourites’ I get you.
We were indeed but I think there was an underlying fear that we’d do a Sunderland.
For us!

Hi everyone. I’m a Stoke City Fan, however I’ve been a long admirer of your club and I have been managing you in every addition of FM since 2011 (if that’s not convinced you nothing will ;p). Now, I come from a club in termoil (Stoke), and I assume that you are likewise, considering the board’s financial situation (correct me if I’m wrong).
So, I have a few questions, one of which is to settle a debate with a friend, and the other is to get a good idea of the fan’s idea of how the club is doing right now.
1) What’re your opinions on Stoke? (Friend says you’d hate us, I said you wouldn’t, because Stoke have no issue with yous I believe)
2) What’s the whole situation with the Ricoh? Why is it like, so far away? Is it hard having to travel so far to get to the ground?
3) What’s your manager like? Does he play good football, and are you happy with him?
Have a nice day lads.
