You do my head in. The bloke deserves to be cut more slack and deserves more tolerance.
5 season supporters most of you I bet.
Try getting behind them on Saturday, it might actually help

i'm totally behind tp and don't want him gone and we won't see him go. But you have to admit everyone has a right to their own opinion, because whether we like it or not saying tony pulis is a good manager isn't fact it's opinion

I agree and yes of course opinions are fine. They still do my head in though because some of the bile aimed his way is down right evil.

Everyone has a right to an opinion. Free will and all that, and some of the abuse he recieves is daft. But surely you are a bit baffled by some of the team selections and tactics??

And had his slack cut last season and has done nothing to warrant any more slack to be offered. I only became a fan when we beat Bolton.

Oh button it, you're saying that after the bloke's churning out shite football, landed the club with a £53million wage bill and a £10million club deficit. Ffs open your eyes and engage brain before starting another pointless thread.

1994. Past achievements should not mean we follow blindly into the future. Hate to mention the scousers but i wonder if they think Kenny Dalglish should still be manager??

Yes united strength is stronger, but one man single handed still refuses to change out players in bad form and keeps the same mind boggling tactics fans can no longer stay united with a moronic deer in the headlights approach to all away games and seemingly every game now. Our own players show it on the sidelines... once that started i knew "tolerance" had gone. I think TP is a good manager but he needs to see that his fav's are doing us in... whelan, crouch, walters... have done fuck all for us since the break yet the feature EVERY game. Where does bad form hit the line to be subbed for the sake of relegation? After Saturday we will be right in it if everyone else improves. Will you still be saying he deserves slack?

I'm just a Stoke fan... I always support the team, and always will. If I don't like the managers decisions, am I not allowed to criticize? Is this North Korea???!
"5 season supporters most of you I bet." - what a childish comment, lost any credibility right there.

You know what's doing my head in?
These constant threads blaming and belittling our support, our support has been absolutely fantastic, and the only reason it's faltering is because of Pulis, not because we're fickle, "5 season supporters", ungrateful or having unrealistic expectations. It's Pulis.
Pulis has signed the players. Pulis picks the side. Pulis picks the tactics. Pulis picks the positions the players play in. Pulis picks how much he spends on a player.
Absolutely none of the current problems we have at Stoke City can be attributed to the support, and anyone who thinks they are is an utter fucking pipe. We've given Pulis our full commitment since 2008, now we want some back in the form of a balanced team, playing some football and actually going out to win a game, that's not much to ask for is it?.

Try getting behind them on Saturday, it might actually help I normally find that it's the "5 season supporters" - especially those who have rarely endured an away game - are the ones who want him to stay. I'd gladly have him stay if he could adapt - a successful Pulis and Stoke. But that ain't gonna happen.

The difference is that Pulis has been paid for his contribution. Whereas we've tried our best to support him and his dinosaur tactics, even paying money to see it. We all love him for getting us to where he has and I doubt anybody can deny that he is by far a legend at Stoke. Lately though, he's just gone off the rails a tad more than usual, and when he lashes out at the fans who just want to see a bit more change and less of the "same old shit" you know it's time for him to make his final bow before he ruins that love Stokies have for him.

Maniche, it does my head in too! They criticise him unmercilously during a bad run, his team, his tactics, spent this, spent that etc etc yawn yawn . However, when it comes to the incredible success he's brought to our club, do these critics say brilliant TP, well done TP, that was brilliant TP...............................................erm no! When we win or something good happens,TP gets no credit at all. It's suddenly the players that are wonderful and nothing to do with TP. Personally I'd keep TP over a lot of our so called fans! In fact, unless you intend to get behind the team AND manager on Saturday and the rest of the season please just go away! Thank you! In TP I trust!!!!
