Welcome to Stoke. Photo by Two up, two dow, Some Rights Reserved.
Stoke City will sign Newcastle’s Joey Barton, Nicklas Bendtner from Arsenal or anyone who has never had the misfortune to visit Stoke.
The Potters have money to spend following their European qualification, and have made approaches for several players – in the hope their targets have never been near the north west hellhole.
The News Grind understands that Spurs midfielder Wilson Palacios is keen on a move to The Britannia stadium, having been hardened by a harrowing stint at Wigan.
And with London’s streets looking more like a war zone it is understood the Honduran star would not feel out of place in The Potteries.
Peter Crouch will not be making the switch north, his agent has confirmed.
The England striker is keen to remain in London after coming dangerously close to moving to Sunderland last summer.

Wow, this is a really well written article! I am so impressed that you have managed to get a picture of a run down building in Stoke! I really do hope you reply with your hometown, as i would like to repay the favour and google ‘old buildings in (enter ‘hellhole’ here)’.

What a terribly written and venomously written article. You can’t even call this ‘news’. Stoke-on-trent is by no means paradise island but how dare you belittle the club with your bile based upon its geographical positioning. Stoke are a team on the up without delusions of grandeur and seemingly becoming everyone’s favourite underdog and gaining more admiration as time goes by. jog on and learn some real journalism

wow, an old run down building makes a city a hellhole?? cant you guess this article was written by some london ponse! Well im from stoke but unfortunately have to spend my working week in london and have got to say that coming home is paradise in comparison! Why anyone would want to live in an overpopulated, overpriced, dirty, noisy shithole like our capital is beyond me!

Let me guess, you’re from Manchester, right? Birmingham maybe? London?
Stoke may not be perfect, but this week, I’ve never been more proud to live here. While the rest of England decided to show how misunderstood they were by stealing a new TV, our police didn’t even bother to don riot gear, because they knew that in Stoke, we don’t sink that low.

Jesus Christ do my fellow Stoke fans really have such a dreadful sense of humour?
And we call Arsenal precious, christ.

Absolute fucking prick. I notice how you didn’t have the balls to post your home town. Hmmm “I know, I think i’ll critisise an area but make sure my roots can’t be scrutinised” lazy writing by a no mark cunt who wont (regardless of how many requests there may be”)’ give us the pleasure of disecting your home town. Hope you choke on your half a lager shandy y’soft wanker.

This is such a nasty attempt at being funny that just sounds like some ignorant arse in a pub. Shame to have thought that it was funny.
