So unless they've moved in together it's breaking social distancing. The 2m is for general out and about. You should not be meeting anyone outside your house unless it’s at your workplace. So even if they stay 2m apart, they should only be doing that once spurs re open their training base. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel sorry for old Ade, yes he wasnt the greatest player but he chipped in a few goals and tried relatively hard. His price tag was criminal but that's more that clown Taylor's fault. We had a lot of worse players, Junior Lewis god knows but 1p too much, Lee Marshall 1m, Matt Jones injured never played 4m, Trevor Benjamin 1m just a few! We had some truly tragic players over the years! Brian Carey and Michael Trotter 😃 Edited 23 April 2020 by Foxin_Mad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very true, Carey was so slow and had a turning circle larger that a Citybus! They did a job at the time as did the likes of Coatsworth, Willis, Phil Gee etc. I think Mark Draper was about the first 'big name' player we got in that era. They wernt talented but gave 100%. 1 hour ago, Spudulike said: Matt Jones did actually play a few games and even scored in one (Middlesboro, I think).

Basically Stoke have never had a better cumulative GD of -2 Tbf couldn't this also be a good thing as if they spent more time in the lower leagues then it is likely their cumulative goal difference would be positive, so it's probably partially indicative of them punching above their weight. For example, if Villa stay up this season and have ten more identical seasons their cumulative goal difference would be diabolical but they would have been in the PL all those seasons.

Bruce has done a good job this season, more points than Benitez ever had at this stage I think I might be right in saying and when you put that to the fans they're just like yeah but we've just been lucky. They're a weird bunch. And really they have spent some money the last few years. It may have been a bit up and down but aren't they at the same level as when Ashley took over? Bruce has done an all right job, and yes he has more points than Benitez did at the stage, but then Benitez' side finished very strongly and Bruce's boys could well fall short of that fairly modest target. The additional comment about being lucky does hold water to be fair. By almost every metric we've played terrible football this season; goals, shots, shots on target, xG, xGA, number of saves required, possession and so on and so forth. We deserved nowt from our games against Chelsea and Everton and yet came away with 4 unlikely points. We are nowhere near the level we were pre-Ashley. We were regularly in European competitions, regularly competing in the latter stages of the domestic cups. Since he took over it's regularly in relegation scraps, two relegations, only once getting past the 4th round of the FA Cup. Couple that with the state of things off the pitch and we've been neglected by Ashley since he took over. Little to no investment in the Academy, the Training Ground, the Stadium, let alone the squad. Our commerical revenue was comparable to Spurs before MA took us over, now we're ligth years behind them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their squad seems generally dross, i'd say they outperform themselves every year Not solely his fault, but the buck stops with him. He appointed Dennis Wise as DoF, who then signed players on loan based on youtube clips (which lead to Keegan quitting and winning a case for Unfair Dismissal), he appointed Joe Kinnear, twice. He appointed Keegan and Shearer, inexplicably. He sacked Hughton who was doing a good job in trying circumstances. He ordered the dismantling of the squad that got us out of the Championship as Champions at the first time of asking.. I could go on. The current squad players are limited, on the whole, and we've been fortunate in quite a few games.

Leicester_Loyal Posted 24 April 2020 Share Posted 24 April 2020 (edited) Surely it's accepted that we (as live spectators) aren't not gonna be watching the rest of this season now? Anyone aware of what's happening with refunds or whatever, surely they should be starting to get it sorted now, it's nearly May. EDIT: Looks like I've missed an email. If games aren't able to be played with us there, we either get a refund or money off next seasons ST?
