Price has dropped from 9/1 to7/1

BUT is Now behind Dyche, Joey Barton and Chris Wilder (very strange) in the running on Sky

Surely if Bet365 are the owners they’d lump on with another bookie as they’d know who’s taking over!!

Despite what gets claimed on here, some of his recent comments have come across as though he’s pretty fed up.

To be fair, Stoke also have their own stadium with features such as grass.

Not necessarily true, Stoke have done what Derby and Sheff Weds did and sold their ground to the owners

Obviously Bet365 are never going to shaft Stoke City but they own the ground

Not a chance, Mark and Adi would hate Staffordshire oatcakes with bacon cheese and brown sauce for tea shug!!
Besides they're a massive club and they sing Delilah dead loud according to the clayheads.

What odds are BET365 offering on Robin's? (Surely they are ITK)

If he wasn’t tempted by Sunderland when we were both in League 1 and when we were playing at St Andrew’s, why the hell would he be tempted by Stoke City

Because he thought all that shit was behind us yet here we are sewing a pitch together to try and not see a 4th home game postponed or moved perhaps?

Or whether he couldn't care less because he's sick of all the shit that goes with managing city no matter whose fault it is.

We were literally playing in another City with probably the second lowest number of season ticket holders in the clubs history when Sunderland approached him

Yeah, and like I said, maybe he thought all that type of shit was behind him
He's clearly pissed off with what's gone on recently. I'm not saying he's leaving, but it wouldn't surprise me if he did. The latest installment of nonsense has been embarrassing.

Some of the suggestions on their forum are very funny.

Also find it strange that many of their fans seem to prefer the idea of Joey Barton over Robins.

Either way, an improved work environment AND salary has got to be tempting for him. I guess the only downside is the fans will expect a fair bit straight away

According to the bookies, he's 3rd place in the running, too close for me!

Will he really care who's at fault?

He'll simply want to manage and help the team win games and at present off the field issues have impeded his ability to do that. Regardless who's to blame it'll be incredibly frustrating for him and Adi.

Bookies odds are generally pointless on this sort of thing

One of their employees is probably cruising fans forums for ‘inside info’

FWIW I don’t see him going anywhere sideways in this division. If a PL team came in for him then it’s a different ball game.

I don’t get how Wilder is the favourite, he’s been well backed at Boro and they’ll click into gear in no time in my opinion

Stoke would be a downwards step for him yet alone a sideways one

Thinking the council needed to support us more didn't stop him sodding off to Huddersfield after all.

Sometimes logistics come in to play. He's from the Sheffield area where he has also played and managed. You would imagine he still has connections to the area and Stoke is much closer.

He’d be crazy to leave there for Stoke

Massive backward step.

Imo they are club on the decline. Situation will only get worse for them.
See them in a relegation battle this year.

To those who think Stoke would be a backwards step as they finished below us and are apparently on a downwards trajectory.

Do you think Luton would be a step up?

You need Staffordshire one's, lightly grilled-baked beans and some grated cheese sprinkled on top. Not bad.
