The 1983–84 season was Stoke City’s 77th season in the Football League and the 51st in the First Division.Manager Ritchie Barker decided to change his tactics prior to the start of the season which was seen a strange decision as Stoke played well in the previous season playing good football. He change to the long ball style of play and whilst it worked with other sides in the Division it didn’t with Stoke and results were poor.
