anybody interested in english football?

Ah well Stoke got to try harder Stoke 0 - 0 Wigan but what about our little Port Vale 4 - 3 Huddersfield. Well done after being 3 -1 down with fifteen minutes to go. Nice little earner for the club I think.

and Robbie will be happy too!

Yes Robbie sure will be. He has been around the city on a visit over the last few days. I met him years ago before he was famous. He helped to promote the divi cards for the co-op - I know that sounds a joke but it is true. His mum had a flower shop in the city so I believe.

So happy that he'd prefer to go and watch Arsenal v Man U. To be fair though I don't get to as many away games as I perhaps could so I can't knock the lad. Brentford at home next week so I will look forward to seeing him there.

Home is where the heart is and for Robbie that is Stoke on Trent. He does some wonderful charity work for our city but of course not many people know about that side of him. There will always be a warm welcome for his at The Vale no matter who he goes to watch. I know this is really a football forum but I have to stick up for Our Robbie he is our own "home grown" star.

Absolutely and speaking as a Valiant I'm very grateful for what he has done for the club and the city but it would still be nice to see him at a game. Assuming he's still in the country then I'm sure he'll be there on saturday for the game v Brentford.

so mazza are you and stoke ready for man u this weekend? they will not be in a good mood after losing to arsenal...

Well hi there dcchris well yes could be difficult this weekend but hey we are in good spirits (no no not the lager type) hope Delap has got his throw in well practiced but whatever may the best team win yes Stoke of course.Good luck to Vale as well, let us not forget them.

Hi dcchris oh just a minute while I get up, it's ok I was just bowing to Man United and their great superiority. The high spirits I mentioned must have been of the lager type after all but at that ground it was awe inspiring and think Stokies must have been overwhelmed at what they saw. Bad weekend for all our teams here, Stoke, Vale and Crewe Alex. I hold my hands up and say not good at all.

not a good one for arsenal either. well on to the next match

Hey does anyone know where I can watch Hull City????I'm in Gliwice...is there a sports pub nearby???

Hi dcchris, 2 Stokie fans will have a good afternoon on Saturday. A local couple have just won over 2 million pounds on the UK lottery. They had a chance lucky dip ticket at the local Morrisson supermarket and their numbers came up. They will be presented with the cheque just before the game. Don't think they will care whether Stoke win or lose, silly devils are to continue going to work.

I think I am a bit lazy cuz I would pack that in. Good Luck to them I say.

must be nice

Who will win tonight England or Germany. Not holding my breath for England but well it could go ok. Cheers everyone!

hmm germany tend not to perform well in friendlies so who knows?

Think I might need a vodka or two and a packet of crisps for this one

Well things look good at half time Eng 1 0 Germany. Won't hold my breath just wait and see how things go - another vodka I think

England 2 1 Germany did the vodka do the trick I wonder? I can breathe again.

lets talk about football!! Should Gallas be sold for Arsenal?

hi dcchris mazza in hospital but says Gallas should go on a free transfer so we stokies can have him he is a good player

hi! wenger has been well known 4 transforming young players into superstars, was surprised when he got gallas at 30. n now silvestre. maybe its the french connection or coz no team has ever won the premiership with just young players. think they should let him go before he causes more fracas in the team. he let viera leave coz of the same reason so gallas should not be special. soz 2 jump into ur conversation guys

Arsenal is my team, but it's so hard to get live games in the US at a decent time to watch. It's a half-a-world away.....

a big win perhaps for the boys. looks like they will keep gallas. one big family.

man city vs man u and arsenal vs chelsea. no drogba or joe cole for chelsea. no pressure for arsenal being 10 points off the lead no one believes they can win the league... except for me hehe

sweet is the taste of victory today

have you seen that ludicrous display last night? *says in an English football fan voice and accent* (sorry seen The IT crowd the other night and they were making fun of footy fans :P)

Yep great result. Not a bad result for my lot either.

szarlotka sorry who is your lot?

Liverpool

oh nice one as long as it isnt the spurs!! haha no I like the pool they are having a great season
