If that wasa dig at Pulis. Take a look in the mirror and look at an ungrateful fucker. If not I apologise Ol Grateful for the results. Not grateful for how it was achieved. That's the wonderful thing about this life. There is a second choice. Not good enough, disbeliever! Kneel in front of a baseball cap and repeat 50 Hail Debs and 100 Our Tones until you are Forever Grateful!

Just looking at the Palace board and reading some of their posts since yesterday and they have a topic about the capped one taking over at Brighton.Seems to have come from Keys and Gray in Qatar so maybe something in it.Big club with a good fanbase and pretty similar to the situation he took over here.I wonder what price he is? An OP hijacked by the usual suspects showing a lack of respect and gratitude for a job well done as they watch World Class footballers week in week out at the Brit and SCFC being known across the globe!!!!!

If it becomes a season after season, shit opposition after shit opposition only way its ever done habit you can bet your socks on it. I imagine you will be consistent enough to lambast the people who complain about it with relentless abuse, Apologist?

If I was given the choice to achieve what we did in the style we did it in and achieve less in a style the manager wasn't comfortable with and, more than likely, a style he wouldn't be able to achieve entertainment with, I'd pick the first one every time.

No i don't consider that whatsoever and why should i?The bloke is part of our history just like all our ex players and managers and if somebody can't start a thread about any of them then something is sadly wrong especially about a bloke who achieved so much for us.

Thing that pisses me off is that when Pulis managed Stoke we were the fuckin footballing dinosaurs of the world, everybody hated our style of play, the press we got was awful and embarrassing.........yet now, all of a sudden, he's a fuckin media darling, every fucker wants him, and every football program wants him on!!!!

What was he doing to pull a face like that? Edit: it was our 0-0 draw with Spurs... linkStill, what was he doing to pull a face like that?

Grateful for the results. Not grateful for how it was achieved. That's the wonderful thing about this life. There is a second choice. He was hired to achieve results, not to achieve lower results in a better style. In an ideal world, we'd have achieved what we did under him in a better style but he wasn't capable of doing it. At the end of the day, he achieved what was expected of him and, when that wasn't considered enough, he was moved on. If I was given the choice to achieve what we did in the style we did it in and achieve less in a style the manager wasn't comfortable with and, more than likely, a style he wouldn't be able to achieve entertainment with, I'd pick the first one every time. I just sit here and look at Swansea with envy. They achieved everything we did and more. They won promotion, they stayed up and built a side to be competitive, they won a trophy, they spent less money. They did it playing football. We did it by kicking the ball up the pitch and fighting for set pieces. We did it by utilising a style that will leave a stain on this club that will last for decades. If that makes me an 'ungrateful fucker' then so be it. It's my opinion and it won't be altered.

You need some heavy duty soap to get rid of that kind of filthy 'stain'. I'm half tempted to say fuck off down the Vetch Field.

Come off it Mutters. You spend enough time on here to know how this thread was going to end up. Personally I can't be arsed to get involved in all this Pulis debate anymore,as long as he isn't our manager I don't care. What I will say is that I think Brighton would be a good job for him due to their standing and location. Whether or not he would be a good fit for them or not,I suppose we will have to wait and see,if he gets the job that is.

You're putting your own twist on my post by claiming I'm calling you an "ungrateful fucker" when I'm simply trying to point out that it's not Pulis' fault that he wasn't perfect (but rather uncapable of doing what you obviously expected of him), and I'm not expecting anyone to change their opinion as I've read this board long enough to know that that just doesn't happen. In Swansea's case, they had a manager who had worked closely under one of the greatest managers around today, in Mourinho. He then moved on and they replaced him with a man that had playing experience at the likes of Juventus, Barcelona and Real Madrid as well as managerial experience in the top flights of Russia and Spain. Our manager at the time's playing days ranged from Bournemouth to some team called Happy Valley in Hong Kong and no top flight managerial experience. I'm sure we all would have liked to have won cups and done it playing attractive football but we simply didn't have the manager for it. That's not however to take away from his achievements at the club as not many other realistic managers could have achieved what he did.

No I'm not wrong, as I'm pointing out that we had a much less experienced manager as the ones Swansea have had. It's irrelevant what sort of person Mourinho is. What is relevant is the fact that he has been a massive success in world football and Rodgers had the chance to learn from him.

He should hold out until the right Premier League job opportunity comes along for him, he's proven with ourselves and Palace what he's capable of achieving in this division and he's earned the right to have another crack at it. He'd be ideal for Hull but I'm not sure he'd want to work alongside an owner like Assem Allam.
