Oooooooh look at you. Can dish it out but can't take it. And if that's threatening behaviour I think certain authorities might be interested.

Merely responding in kind Joe. But, seriously, something has to be done to halt this slide don't you think?

Yes. That's the understatement of the year. It's actually about scraping the points together to assure safety BUT the philosophy of the team has to change. By this time next year we need to have different style of players. This can be achieved by getting rid of some of the dross clogging up the wage bill.

Agreed, Joe. We need to scrape through now but massive changes needed in the summer.

Oh the irony.......
A thread about how crap this board has got gets taken over by the usual keyboad warriors.
Priceless.

We all want the same thing Sheikh. It's just worrying that Pulis, having done so well, seems to going through some sort of crisis.
PS Sorry about remarks re Dubai mate. Must be tough out there at the mo. Take care.
PPS Let's put PHW-Rimmer nonsense to bed eh?

The PHW/Rimmer stuff is the most divisive crap in the history of divisive crap.

Indeed. Seriously Joe, we've got to all pull together to get through this then reassess in the summer when we're still in this league. But right now, the way things are going here, we're going down.

No balance, too many players the same. You do need grafters and grinders and tactical discipline BUT without an element of craft and technical skill those qualities are redundant.

Exactly. Tuncay gone and Fuller on the bench makes no sense at all.

Just seen a perfect example of what I'm on about...Liverpool v the shit, Liverpool on top but the shit holding firm. They are unlocked by some brilliant skill by Suarez. A quality player 'making the difference'.
Defenders hate nothing more that players running straight at them...especially in the box. We lack that making making the difference factor.

We have some really good players to build a team around in Bego, Huth, Ryan, Ethers, Pennant, KJ(who despite his brutal form will come good when given some decent service) and Carew (hopefully we can sign him up on a permanent deal). If we add a couple of fullbacks and CM's and a striker or 2 we will have a very strong side but we need a mass clear out of deadwood in the summer. IMO TP is the man to lead us forward in the next few years and will continue to see us improve and become a top half Prem side with a couple of Wembley appearances to our name.

Honest question. What would it take for Pulis lovers to admit something is not right here? (by the way I aren't a Pulis hater but a concerned fan).
If (god forbid Stoke do go down then lets see how many players want to jump ship. Pulis doesn't half take his time signing so the chances of replacements could be touch and go. How many Premiership teams over the years have dropped two divisions through having to totally rebuild.
Not saying we will go down and got I hope not but these are things to think about. Is TP really tge man to take us further or do we want a relegation battle every year.

What are you basing any of that on? Isn't it just as likely we could make a decent appointment and at the very least stay a mid-table side? Why would the players go? I don't want the manager out but I do want him to get his head out of his arse pronto. Is that unreasonable? Silencing the debate, as the manager and as the absolutely disgusting performance of Acres and Spinks on P&G last night seem to want to do, is actually the worst thing that we could do imo.

Spot on fella - this only Tony Pulis can keep Stoke in the Prem stuff is simply bollocks
