Stoke never play well, bunch of giants with no footballing talent

Unlucky Blackburn, 3 points next week

12 shots on target and we only scored one, not good enough.

In Steve Kean's new contract, does he pick up a losing bonus and an extra bonus for his team shipping another three goals?

RRP, yes we get it, you do not like Stoke, so do us all a favour and change the record, move on and deal with it.

Just telling it how it is

Stoke spent £20 + million on players for their height and height only...if Blackburn had that sort of money they might be in a better position

Thanks RRP but really, cannot see where the 3 points are coming from. We played ok against you guys and lost - we just can't seem to address our deficiencies - conceding goals and not scoring enough. Kean has dismantled an organised team and installed his own ideas.

You deserved to beat us! No idea how we got the 3 points to be honest

From my point of view...you have the players, the talent and the skill to get out of this, but for what ever reason things are just not working out...REALLY hope that changes

RRP, listen to yourself. If Blackburn had that sort of money Well according to the idiotic Blackburn owners they do.

If i had a million pounds RRP i would be a millionaire, but i don't. You can have money, but it doesn't guarantee to bring you success and with the Venky's as owners and that clueless numpty of a manager, Blackburn are heading for relegation.

The only good news is the money i placed on them to go down at the start of the season is looking like a great bet and the odds were good too.

dirtyseirrah (U1474) - Well pardon me for trying to look for the positives in a side, i just so happen to have a soft spot for Blackburn along with some other teams and would like to see them do well

My point on Stoke is, they HAD the money but still decided to go out and buy players who cant play football, the only thing going for them is their height..at least Blackburn try and play the right way

Well the last time i looked it's Stoke's money and they can do with it as they please. They are a well run club and they last time i checked their manager isn't going to sent to jail for tax evasion. So i would get off your high horse on telling another football club how to buy players, when your manager is a dodgy
