The lad was on a hiding to nothing, being thrown in at the deep end, unfit and clearly not prepared for the way we set-up. Another poor and desperate decision by TP, IMO.
I won't be making a judgment on him until next season, when the lads had a pre-season under his belt and understands the requirement to respect the "Cage".

Terrence is an absolutely triffic name. Clarence too, sign him up! I agree, i want a squad where players names are very 1950's. Back to when players were called Stanley, Royston, Albert, Reginald, Arthur and Phineus. Especially Phineus. Moustaches, brill cream, pipes and a brisk hand shake after a goal. ;D

So that's Brek out of the squad against Everton then after his international duties. Nackered Whelan and Walters will be first on the team sheet though

This is getting beyond ridiculous. As much as I feel for the likes of Shea, Adam, Jerome, and Jones it pales in comparison to he poor punters forking out their hard earns money to watch the crap Pulis is serving up. His @$&":)ing team selection buggars belief, Pulis out!

This is nearly as good as Stoke fans writing off Edu after playing 5 minutes at anfield where he happened to have a bad touch.
Absolutely ridiculous to judge him already. Walters has played about 80 consecutive games - that is a player who can be judged for how shite he is. Shea has played about 80 minutes?

Shea will be a good player for us given a little time to get fit and settle into Stoke and the Prem, that's assuming Pulis ever plays him again!!
GC looked a little shaky and not sharp enough when he first arrived but has steadily improved and on Saturday I thought he looked like one of our most comfortable players on the ball.

If Tone doesn't think he's good enough to start then that's fine with me. It's not with me, means we've fucked up another signing. In Tone we trust.

People keep having a pop at the American players, am i not right in thinking they do nearly as well (if not better) than England every time they are in the World Cup? From a country were Football is its 5th or 6th sport, thats really not that bad. Not every player will work, but i really think its not a bad way. Also, havent all of TP's best sides had strong, fit, athletic players? Check for all american athletes. Plus, its a growing league.
