On the day we lost one of our beloved heroes at Stoke, we simply... lost. Our way. Oh and the game. @stokecityfc.bsky.social we need to address not just another manager but a decade of failure of leadership and imagination. That links players, fans, board, manager and staff to a club-wide vision.

It's the cause of course... but the commute is a hell of a bonus ☺️...
