Stoke fans ‘Shelvey ran the game’…’All of these things were Benitez’…’Can’t describe how much I hate Mark Hughes’

Stoke fans ‘‘Depressingly, most likely outcome is a 0-1 defeat and Hughes stays’…’Rafa will know how to set up Newcastle to get a result.’

Stoke fans ‘Oh no, not the beer monster, donkey jacketed Geordies.’

Stoke fans – ‘Straight swap, Ryan Shawcross for Rafa Benitez…’

Newcastle supporters beware, Stoke fans are travelling in huge numbers (for them) on Sunday and we face the embarrassment of being outsung by them!

‘We can only sell the seats that are in the Stadium unfortunately! And of course you are a one team city……………..we have the mighty Port Vale in ours!
