Boss: "We want to get the ball down and play exciting and attractive football." TP: "Right, so you want to 'play through the lines,' get the ball forward up to big'un as quickly as you can, by any means possible?" Boss: "err..." TP: "No problem son, let's get started then..."   |

It went from we want to play attractive passing football to Tone going on about getting the ball back to front as quick as possible. He is ace.

I must have listened to something different!!
Boss: "err..." The coach actually said Yes twice
"Right, so you want to 'play through the lines,' get the ball forward up to big'un as quickly as you can, by any means possible?"
"Big 'un, get up front!"..... He actually said stay out wide

That video is such a microcosm of the best and worst of TP
Whatever you say about his tactics (and enough has been said on this link aready) his enthusiasm, energy and motivating strengths shine right through
IF he had evolved his philosophy and perhaps brought in a better calibre of coach to help him who knows what he could have acheived.

Only on this site would a decent gesture like that be met with a barrage of spite and shite.
Predictable and depressing. And I don't mean our footy last season.

Not that this is what actually happens on the video but it's close enough. If that hasn't been spliced, and it probably has, it's hilarious. Put the balls away, we'll play with them tomorrow. "but your not here tomorrow" I SAID PUT EM AWAYYY!  |

Christ, you're so bloody precious about Tony Pulis. He did a fantastic job for Stoke City, we all know that. Chill out. |

I'm referring to the same old spiteful shite from the same old posters. Time to move on maybe? |

I totally agree. Pulis ball helped keep us in the epl, and players played hard for him. But it was time to make a change. |

When TP left it was all " It's time to move on", but the Pulis haters just can't let it go.

I can't see one spiteful thing on this thread. Almost every comment that could be construed as negative is then followed by an allusion to the fact that the poster is only joking or even something positive. We all know Pulis had his way of setting a team up so there's no point pretending otherwise is there? |

"Well that was 4 minutes of my life totally wasted." Depends on your point of view. I was happy to see Pulis go but I don't get those who can't miss a chance to stick the knife in. All I've seen of Pulis since he left has been positive. He's come across well in the media and been supportive of us and Hughes. Maybe I'm expecting too much of his biggest critics to show a similar level of class. |

I read both of those comments as a slur against the video in general, not against Pulis. The conclusion I'm drawing if you're right and it is anti-Pulis stuff is that you spend too much time on here. I don't see why you should care whether people still feel they have an axe to grind?
