To be fair, to vale it might as well be, itโ€™s a once every 25 years kind of game, they win even less regularly than us in those kind of games ๐Ÿ˜‚

Thatโ€™s like asking if you consider Leyton Orient big rivals ! Only if we are in the same division ! They hate us, most Stoke fans donโ€™t even care about them unless we are playing them

Because we sang Tom Jones, so they desperately scrambled around for a song with some relevance to football, and that was best they could manage

I find it quite amusing that a full house at the vale, would be considered a poor league attendance at Stoke, tin pot club, tin pot stadium. Odsal is the Wembley of the north, you absolute divets

The murder of Charlie Kirk was criminal, wrong, and should be condemned.

And Charlie Kirk was a horrible, hateful man who spent his life radicalizing young people to embrace their worst demons by targeting women, people of color, immigrants, and the marginalized.

I refuse to sanitize him.

Yes, the didnโ€™t have the money when he first owned them, they sold them and used the money to found bet365, bought them back in 2006 when they were racking it in

Spent plenty 2nd time round when they had money, spent about ยฃ50-100M every season between 2008-2017

Stoke is not owned by Bet365 anymore, but is owned by one of their founders, Jon Coates, son of former Chairman Peter Coates, heโ€™s worth about 3 Billion, so can afford Stoke Cityโ€™s current losses

It may have even been something to do with the Stoke city lottery, or prize draw of the era in the sentinel. Picture a bottle oven with arms and legs and a face drawn on it, and the words Stoke City above and below the face. Red ink (or black in a paper) and the rest white

I only ever saw the bottle oven mascot on paper, never as a figure with a human inside
