The article is a long one, so i better not post it. But there's the link, don't know if it's relevant or anything or whether it's been mentioned before, don't know how valid it is either, but seem's like they're jumping the gun a bit, if it is true. I for one think Stoke have a chance of staying up but it will be tough, very tough.

i hope they stay up now cause they have already payed out on them

Haha yeah would be pretty funny that. I don't see why they would do it though, especially after one game ? They lost it 3-1 to Bolton yeah fair enough, but the game after they beat Villa 3-2 or something right ? So they can't be that bad or as bad as Derby as they say somewhere in there because they have already equalled the amount of games Derby won last season

 

[marty davidson]

so silly paying out after 3 games like it would only motivated the players the avoid relegation

Stoke where probably the seasons biggest surprise by beating Villa

Paddy Power have gone off the deep end. Admitedly Stoke's opening loss against Bolton was something they'd rather forget.

However they're 2nd match saw them put 3 goals past Aston Villa, no mean feat, and grab 3 points to boot.


Also a 2 - 1 loss to Middlesbrough in the dying seconds of a game courtesy of a Tuncay goal is no disgrace. It's respectable.

I predict Stoke my not be staying but I wouldn't put money on that. They're better than they look.

Yeah, I heard about this.

Stoke probably will go down but at least give them a chance for crying out loud!

 

[spellbound]

Maybe the bookies should start to pay out the spurs bets as well.

lmao.

I think they'll go down, but they look better and more efficient than I thought so they've got a chance that they'll stay up.

One more thing I want to say;

C'MON STOKE!
