I love Stoke, I'm a born 'n' bred Stokie from a Stoke family of 100s of years, I love Stoke people, salt of the earth, honest, hard working, funny, kind. I do not recognise what my city has become, nor the people who claim to represent it in the name of patriotism. #disgusted

Many Stokies laughing at Vale foregoing chance of promotion, but we should instead applaud the owners voting for the greater good instead of their own club's interests. We should be proud that both of our city's clubs have decent, caring local owners. #scfc #pvfc

Serious question, Stokies, as we're not going up or down and there's 8 games left. Should we prioritise playing our own younger players, like Forrester, DWP, Campbell, even DJT and Tezgel, ahead of loanees or those who will be leaving in the summer? For me, it's a resounding YES.
