May i just start this piece by thanking everyone who has read these ramblings since august last year. Tomorrow is my final day as SCFC catflap editor and i have really enjoyed the whole deal and i'd like to thank a few people. Homzy from teamtalk.com, rebellious jukebox (oatcake poster), superstokiesi (wolvo potter) and my dad. Big shout out to you fella's and all the others from the oatcake and beyond who have listened and read. Last saturday was a great day up the brit, a poor first half but a different second, on the pitch and off it. As the celebrations reached a crescendo i turned and looked around me at the packed stands full of smiling happy stokies, it was the way it was always meant to be at this stadium not the library style conditions we endured in the early years of the new ground. Everyone connected with stoke city fc have raised the bar this season, to maintain the standards the club must have a good summer in the transfer market, the signs for me are good, the image of the club is changing and the way we have gone about this season will do us no harm in the long run. We have risen from the ashes folks. We all must keep the fire inside our bellies and keep the inferno roaring on. Well done boys. We love you city.
