They are good bunch, actually.
I started a thread on there and it's been a good discussion, with many now in favour of Pulis.

If TP does become Cystal Palace manager then I wish him well and hope he does a good job(obviously not at our expense). I loved what he achieved with us but realised things had got to change although the abuse he still gets from some Stokies is way,way over the top. Good Luck TP Yes - I hope that TP gets the job and does well If we get in trouble then that is totally down to us not picking up points - it will be nowt to do with Palace

I have to say, I am very keen on TP getting the job. If you look at his Stoke career record of a cock hair over one point a game and a win record of under 30% then Palace would Shirley take care of one relegation spot. Nailed on! It all helps whilst St Peter tops the war chest back up after its raping over the last few years and we sort the playing squad issues left by "the legacy".

Ahh the legacy argument. I suppose if we get anything today, the wankstains will give Pulis due credit. I mean it works both ways doesn't it. I just don't recall much talk of legacy after West Ham and Man City. Very strange

I just don't recall much talk of legacy after West Ham and Man City. Very strange I suppose the player who scored the winner vs West Ham was exiled by the former manager though. I don't recall him often being trusted with free kicks when he was in favour either.

At least Selhurst is an easier commute for the faithful than home park, and at least we've already played Palace at home so we won't have to stomach the sickening sight of people giving an opposition manager more support than our own

I cannot understand the hate for Pulis, nor for Hughes!! Pulis did wonders for us, many "fans" love the way we were feared and hated, well Pulis certainly had us hated :-) .... As for legacy etc. Hughes has a bunch of players that were drilled in playing one way, he is having to change their style, which will take time and present mistakes. Why cant we just be thankful to Pulis for the years he has given us and give Hughes the backing to make the transition and give us more good times.

Personally I think only a small % of fans truly hated him or revered him. most supporters saw the good & bad in him (as they do with anyone) & respect TP's good points whilst despairing at his bad points.

Come on Tone. Get that job mate.

The Pulis haters are a strange lot.They equate anyone who defends TPs record as a lover of TP, that are not really supporters of Stoke. They are so blinded by their hatred of TP that they can't see that it is their total lack of respect for a man, who has done great things for this club, that riles people to defend him. Most sane people have moved on, and being true Stoke supporters are mainly interested in what goes on at Stoke and are giving Hughes the benefit of the doubt. It is these haters who keep dragging this all up with their disparaging comments about a man, who might not be loved by the majority of fans, but who has their respect and gratitude, for what he did for their club.

Agreed, but equally there are those who are so blinkered against Hughes that they have us relegated already, just because it's him.

Oh here we go again , the fucking Pulister defender of the faith bollocks. We all know very well there are as many rabid fucking idiots on the side of Pulis as there are that don't like him. Those who equate anyone with the mildest of criticism of their Hero to being a 'hater' , if you refuse to see that then god help you. As for not letting go and dragging things up for any poster making your point I shall counter with a few opposite retards. It makes me fucking balk hearing that your view is the sensible and well thought one and everyone else is a cunt. H

There is no room here for common sense and fairness. I enjoy the mood swings, the schizophrenia and general fuckwittery that some of our more emotional posters bring to this discussion.

To be fair the rimmers have treated the wankstains with kid gloves so far.
Had Mr Pulis delivered 4 goals in a quarter of a season the wankstains would be shouting for his cock and balls to be cut off and placed in a display cabinet in the Waddington suite.
As it is the rimmers have done little more than raise an eyebrow in a 'I hope this new fella knows what he is doing?' kind of a way.

The fact that there are still 'rimmers' of a manager that is fuck all to do with this club anymore is fucking disturbing but not surprising! I'll wait until Hughes has had 5 years and 100 million to spend on his own squad before I fuck him off. H Here is one example of your little raising of an eyebrow

Again, comparing apples with oranges, a man who was here for years with generous backing and had shown he could get the team playing some cracking stuff vs a man who's been here a few months with a fraction of the budget.

All managers are going to want to put their own stamp on teams with their own players aren't they Geoff? Hughes hasn't got the freedom in the market his predecessor has, why do you think that is? Those players weren't exactly pulling up trees in the past couple of years.

Your first sentence is fair enough, but just saying Hughes as the benefit of some good signings by Tone. You are not suggesting are you that MH would have a better chance of success without the £85m spend?
