      Maybe I need an alternative site or something where it’s a little more light-hearted than debate. Jesus, one Man City draw, and we’re blooming up in arms – so bloody what???????? I would love to sit at the top almost 20 points clear. I wouldn’t even bat an eyelid to 3 draws on the bounce!

      Referees this referee’s that, I’m sick of it! Far too serious and conservative.

      This is supposed to be New Years Day, WTF. Maybe some of us need to get back to work!

      Going bonkers just having to read the same stuff about bettering the game, Referee’s and decisions!!!!!

        Well you are right Newblance..the game has become statiscally controlled by those who wish to think it is a science…science it is not and fans do take it as life or death most aspects of the game. We have to acknowledge the fact that it is run by the media now and if for example one of the media nerds wants to develop issues on ca certain player or manager they will make it a β€œproject” Truth or reality does not enter into it, the fans get sucked in, hysteria prevails
        I believe because of the above fans do not love the game as much now because they are pre conditioned We also have an ever increasing armchair fans, they are important for the media because they in turn attract the β€œads” and revenue they enjoy at some stage the bubble will burst and we may get back to a less tribal fan base and start enjoying the game of football from 22 players

          Sorry, have I missed something? Is there another thread where this one then makes sense?

            to get back to that handball decision imo Dean called it correctly as the players arms were not at his side plus the ball hit him plumb on the hands not on the upper arm which is normally the contentious area-obviously the handball decision the day before which was not given added a lot of comparative fuel to the fire.

              Especially at Stoke!?

              SSN’s report that the Board are considering the future of Mark Hughes. Sounds like he’s on his way.

                what can Hughes do with what his got-nothing — much- — whoever comes in will also battle

                  Pwy, good point but Owners and Boards panic on the back of such a run with relegation beckoning which is why the majority of the changes happen at the bottom end of the table.

                  Seemingly the Stoke fans have turned against Hughes too which is never a good sign.

                  Allegedly Stoke want a British Manager which if true reduces the field considerably ironically short term Pullis could probably have stopped the rot but he’s off the market now.

                    The board sold stokes best player and didn’t replace him with as good or better so the team went backwards!! What a surprise stoke have gone backwards, stop the press!!

                    Some clubs boards are just plain stoooopid

                      To be fair goat I don’t think anyone at Stoke wanted to sell Arnautuvic but according to Hughes it became “irredeemable”.

                            But who?
                            All the usual shit British managers have recently gotten new jobs, as per their union rules.
                            Allardyce
                            Pardew
                            Moyes
                            Pullis
                            Bruce
                            Et al

                            Maybe Gary Monk is the only one left?

                                    Can’t see Rodgers taking the Stoke role I think his ego might get in the way of taking it on be a great challenge though.

                                          Rodgers is a good shout for Stoke, we’ll find out once and for all if he actually knows what he’s doing…
