And that's despite us playing Chelsea, Spurs & Liverpool away.

Solid as a rock.

Impressive record. Just a few more goals and all the moaners will have nothing to moan about

don't you believe it - they always find something however innocuous it may seem to the rest of us :roll:

Is there anything wrong with striving for perfection?

The big problem is the good performances have come away from home in front of 1500 to 3000 clarets. The home performances have been a bit me with nearly 20k a time watching them.

Pressure ? At away games the support get behind them at home they don't. When we got promoted it was pretty much acknowledged that we would be trying to emulate Stoke (rather than Swansea for example). Support at the Turf couldn't be less like Stoke if we tried, it makes a huge difference and every player and manager will tell you the same.

I think you have been in Vegas too long. Stoke is not very loud anymore, they had too pump crowd noise through speakers in 2010 and it only gets worse.

The noise from the CF stand is equivalant too the away support in numbers and backing. The gripes are about the other stands not joining in but they're not at away games.

I've watched Stoke 3 times so far this season, I very much beg to differ !
Agree regarding the other stands, point remains the same though - we aren't helping the lads out at home
