***Official Stoke v City Match Thread***

Crap half. Crap ref.

de Jong has been weaker in possession than in a long time.

[Dubciteh]

is balotelli the most annoying player we have ever had?

i think we should of signed ricardo fuller instead?

Ricardo Fuller could have been a player imo. I get the feeling hew's not made the best of what he's got.

doesnt he have dodgy knees or something? i remember him failing a medical at someone, on his day hes good but very inconsistent. Balotelli pissing me off with his shot from 40 yards and his moaning at team mates when doesnt get a pass...

balo was in on goal, clearly onside, very early doors. lino flags. in that same minute, the rags score an offside goal.

right there is one of the prime reasons why it it hard to beat these bastards. they get bias in their favour every single bastard week. we don't.

all said, city were shite that half. 22 carat shite.

[Crossie]

We really should be hammering these small timers without having to worry about how shit the ref is. No excuses, we need chances and a pair of balls.

How the fuck can we go from that to this?

To be fair, I think Balotelli should shoot sometimes from 40 yards because occasionally he'll score from 40 yards. We always have a non shooting policy at City over the years but unless you miss a few, you don't score a few. So long as he doesn't do it when he's got an easy pass on we could score from, I don't mind. Same goes for Kolarov.

True but he has been less good than Jo so far in his link up play. Always likely to score though.

we are off the pace in the battle from the off, so we need to come out and give them something to think about. We clawed back a bit towards the end of the half and unless Stoke grab one we have more chance of scratching a way into this as time goes on. Hopefully we will come out a bit sharper.

They really are a joke!!!

[Ted Hughes]

Joke that no one was near post from Milner's free kick.

[Manx Blue]

Get Jo On....Fat Sam Out!

[Crossie]

Tevez, Silva, Ballotelli, are there 3 others forwards together at any other club that are better than our 3?

Come on boys go and prove it.

[Mark (Blue Army)]
