Guitar legend Slash grew up in the Midlands town and congratulated Stoke on making it to the 2011 FA Cup Final:

Tweeting via Twitter.com/slash, the former Guns N’ Roses guitarist wrote: “I got up to find that the satellite channel the match was on I don’t subscribe to! But I hear Stoke won 5/zip! Congrats Stoke City!”
