eddie Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Bloody project manager wants me to do a presentation to a couple of directors tomorrow afternoon. Chances of me getting to the Potteries in time are now nil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doha Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Hi PrivateDerby is correct. We were taken over in November by a wealthy single owner and the target is to return to the Championship. For pubs I recommend the Bulls Head in St John's square. If you're coming up from the A500 it's in a square to the right of the KFC in Burslem town centre, just in front of the town hall. It's affiliated with the Titanic Brewery. CAMRA rated and all that and will ( usually) have a barbecue on. There's also The Leopard a bit further on - http://www.bbc.co.uk/stoke/content/articles/2007/05/25/leopard_history_feature.shtml If you're coming from the A53/527 I recommend you pick up some Oatcakes on High Lane on the way to Burslem, they are ******* mega. Bacon, Egg, Sausage and Cheese. Get on it. https://maps.google.com.qa/maps?ie=UTF-8&q=high+lane+oatcakes&fb=1&gl=qa&hq=high+lane+oatcakes&cid=0,0,1701022622056194071&ei=ItjkUa70I43LrQfuuIC4Dw&ved=0CHwQ_BIwAA You'll be sat in the 4500 capacity Hamil Road end. I'd sit at the bottom because the angle is shallow and there's a scoreboard hanging from the roof. http://www.thisisstaffordshire.co.uk/Port-Vale-Derby-County-challenge-true-test-says/story-19523898-detail/story.html http://www.thisisstaffordshire.co.uk/Port-Vale-Micky-Adams-looks-tie-midfield-deal/story-19524009-detail/story.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boycie Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Hope the game has more taste than them bloody oatcakes mate. No offence, but, wtf? Anyway, Thanks for the heads up. Port Vale are my favourite potteries team. Oh arh! van der Laan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boycie Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 I'd have thought Robbie Williams may have bought the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boycie Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 I did a blindfolded taste test once with oat cakes. The one with meted cheese and bacon in between two pieces of damp cardboard won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doha Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 I hope you aren't confusing the dirty ba3tardised Derbyshire oatcakes with the glorious Staffordshire variant Otherwise you need sectioning. I'm looking forward to a good game in beautiful weather. Be interesting from my point of view to see how our wingers and Pope cope with Championship level defenders.

PrivateDerby Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 I'm in Stoke so like my oatcakes, folded if I'm making them and sometimes add sausages when I want to make them extra healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Srg Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Hopefully it'll be a bit mixed still... I want to see Russell tonight. Shame he's decided Bennett should play this morning and Tyson should go. What the point in that??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doha Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 #dcfc will wear their new 2013/14 Away Kit at Port Vale tonight. We'll reveal the kit on http://dcfc.co.uk prior to kick-off! #dcfcfans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doha Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 If it's anything like the new home kit you have my commiserations in advance! Our Chairman sent our new kits back to the manufacturer with a note telling them to feck off because he was unhappy with the quality. I would imagine we'll be wearing plain white training tops and last seasons black shorts. http://www.dcfc.co.uk/news/article/preview-port-vale-a-916363.aspx#IjMMWoaZ8RSRR0Xe.99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inter politics Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Tyson will get injured and then we'll be lumbered with his dodgy legs for the season. What happened with that Morsy - see he went to Chesterfield? Is he not that good then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doha Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Good prospect (Egypt national side looking at him) but he fell out with Adams. He does this a bit 1:18:30 http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=4uZ4nM6Z5cc#t=4709s But then he does this a lot 1:13:55 He cost us 3 points (and 2nd place in the final table) by making a unbelievably tackle and getting sent off. Adams called him a Coward in the press and they never got on after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inter politics Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Wasn't it Adams who fell out with our own Jamie Ward? Other than Pope, any players to watch out for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
