Stoke City Post Match Thoughts

[millers88]

Whatever formation we looking to play in the near future we need wide players in urgently. Bramall is nowhere near good enough for this level and Peltier can't play as a wing back.

Correct, nothing to do with taking the Judas money

You ‘sound’ like a 5 year old. They say it goes full circle.

Grow up.

Your love affair for PW is astounding. Defending a guy that basically walked out on us taking his staff with him.

You were slagging him off well before he left. Putting money to one side, why do you think all his staff went with him?

I think he’s a decent manager and a decent bloke.

Shoot me.

Can’t blame him for moving on with the abuse he got.

Infinitely a better football manager than the last bloke we had. Fact.

Say what you like about Warne, but any one of his sides would have showed infinitely more passion and fight that lot today. Yes, we have a squad littered with players not up to championship quality (not RUFCs fault.... it's the massive££££ disparity in football), but we also have too many journeymen and half-ar$ed types not prepared to put their body on the line.

A Warne side would probably have won that today. Stoke were poor.

So, today the corpse of Rotherham United was wheeled out in a barrow and tipped onto the pitch, where it lay motionless for 90+ minutes of ‘action’ before being dragged off by the ankles at the end.

Cruelly, this ritual must be carried out 19 more times before we will be allowed to bury it.

....and I can't quite believe I'm saying this, but we missed Dexter. There was no support, no overlapping, nothing, when Hughill won & held up the ball, looking to lay off. Peltier just not got the legs

You mean like Portsmouth away when Warne was in charge? Yes we showed infinitely more passion.
Rose tinted spectacles again from some.
MK dons at home against 10 men I could go on.
It was horrendous but we’ve been horrendous with most managers at this level would be unfair to say Warne was worse or better.

[avondalemiller]

Probably the worst performance(if that's what it was called) of the season, so far......

Stoke were poor in our box, as we were poor everywhere. If only we could keep the ball like they did, all we do is hoof it up and lose it, it's like we're kicking up hill all the time.......

We would have been beaten in L2 today...............to say we were poor is being polite.

Today was really a carbon copy of the Fulham match.
Competent at the back , didn’t get hammered but lost on both occasions to excellent strikes at goal.
Hopeless going forward and probably the easiest wins our opponents will have all season
