Stoke City FC – Awards Of The Season – 2008/09

Sunday, May 31st, 2009

  Blatantly plagiarising from my friends on the Tottenham and Manchester City blogs, though I suppose it takes one to know one, right Matt, I’ll put together my own Stoke City end of season awards ceremony, with various categories of awards.

End Of Term Report

Friday, May 29th, 2009

  In this season of great over-achievement for Stoke, players in every area of the pitch, from the goalkeepers to the strikers have played a part in allowing us to amount to so much more than the parts of the whole. As the season’s now over, I’ll run through how I rate all the players’ [...]

Monday, May 25th, 2009

  Who would have thought that, when we first took to the Premier League field at Bolton over nine months ago now, and returned from it dejected, having been thoroughly beaten 3-1 by what we saw as one of the division’s weaker sides, that this season would turn out the way it has done?

Premier League Manager Of The Season – The Winner Is…

Friday, May 22nd, 2009

…Alex Ferguson. Typical. A crumb of comfort to those Stoke fans saying that Tony Pulis should have won it will be that the Potters’ boss came in a very respectable third, narrowly behind Fulham’s Roy Hodgson.

Tuesday, May 19th, 2009

 Inspired by the bizarre and unsightly new Bolton kit which was recently released, I’ve decided to write a little end of season, soft piece on all the less attractive football kits we have seen our teams take to the pitch in over the past couple of decades.
