What they need is someone who loves the city, internationally respected and available - step forward Phil 'The Power' Taylor.

Interesting fact about Stoke: their squad has the most Champions League winners in it this season of all the teams in the Premier League.

What seems to happen is a team has a few good years in the top flight before the fans and powers that be decide they can suddenly become the northern European version of Barcelona. Team then go crashing towards the Championship before club panics and gets in a firefighter manager and the cycle starts again.
Stoke is a shit hole

I think she plays for Man City?
A possible candidate in the future for the England job, but she still has a couple of years playing at the top level

Moving into international management from the PL, is now a backwards step.
Good shout.
Looks like he could tear paint off the walls if they were losing. He's never been used to that. Good timing as well now he's hung up his darts.
Do behave!

Personally I'd go for Eddie 'The Beast' Hall, also local and just retired. Definitely a man who can handle the weight of expectation.
This feels like it's turning into the Viz letters page.

They have 5 players.
Jese (Real Madrid), Darren Fletcher (Manchester United), Bojan Krkic (Barcelona), Xherdan Shaqiri (Bayern Munich) and Ibrahim Afellay (Barcelona)

A few summers back I was watching the finish of a stage of the tour of Britain (or whatever it's called).
The month before Le Tour was all chateau, fields of sunflowers, vineyards and elegant people indulging in epicurean delights.
The stage that finished in Stoke was Cash Converters, bookies, boarded up pubs and a street drinker with prison tats, a pencil lead roll up to match eating a happy shopper sausage roll.
It's a khazi.
I wonder what the average weekly wage is of those 5 players.

Pretty sure Jese has never appeared in a CL final, Fletcher was an unused sub, as was Kric and Shaqiri. Afelleay did play in the CL final, he came on in the 90th minute.
Stat's eh?

Shirley if they were in the squad or played in earlier rounds, then winners they are, especially if they have medals indicating such?

I'd kind of assumed that people would be able to see beyond that obvious point.
