    Well with the shock announcement that Fergie is retiring and all the talk that Davis Moyes may be his successor and that Mourinho could be taking the reigns back from Rafa and Pulis's future uncertain with Stoke, this is going to leave quite a few top clubs looking for new managers.

    Hopefully Pulis will go and we can grab one of these big names that may come available.

    On another note I read in the Sentinel that both Adams, (Port Vale), and Davies, (Crewe), are both being linked with the Wolves job!

    It will certainly be interesting to see where the merry-go-round will stop and who gets off. It looks as though Moyes is favourite for Old Trafford, he could offer them stability (another 20 yrs perhaps) if successful. Mourinhio is favourite with the fans but I am not sure he would fit. If Pulis does leave us where would he go and, more importantly, who would replace him at the Brit?

    So long as Pulis goes I'll take my chances with an "attack minded" manager.

    Just read on the internet that Mancini is now to be replaced at the end of the season by Manuel Pellegrini, don't know how true it is but it could be another prem manager casualty!

    Also Alan Pardew in crisis talks with Mike Ashley and the manager of French club Montepellier being lined up for his job. I think next season could see a whole new lot of prem managers as this seasons premiership has been seriously poor to be honest.

    If a new manager does come to Stoke he will have to spend millions as the tatt Pulis is leaving will need to be totally cleared out!

    On another note with all the other clubs bringing in new managers that will inject fresh ideas and players, if we do keep Pulis how will this affect us as he will be still churning out the same old garbage and tactics. It will defo have a huge impact on our season next time around if we stagnate!

    Waddya mean Waddo IF we stagnate?

    We ARE stagnant at best for the past 3 seasons!

    I know lots on here want Di Matteo or Benitaz, the Everton job does seem a lot more attractive than ours I am have to say.

    Agreed Nick, if you were offered either the Everton job or the Stoke job, which one would you pick?

    Well I've just heard the current Cardiff manager is odds on for the Everton job which then in turn could lead to Mr Pulis going home to Cardiff!!! Never been relegated and premiership safety they would snap him up!

    We need rid of him now, not happy with stories of him buying new players or giving better deals to others, it's like he's fecking us over for nxt year regardless if he's here.

    Absolut joke Waddo IMO ?
    2nd in the league to Utd
    Losing finalists this season.
    Won the cup 2 years ago
    His only failure not getting through the group stages of the UEFA No disgrace there really...
    I know he's spent a fortune but so has Pulis.

    It's all about trophies and WINNING them where as, at Stoke we would all settle for some decent footie and a top half finish every season.

    I know I would. Mr M won't be too worried though, I think his pay off will be around 5 million.

    Sign me up for that decent footie, i'd be happy if we had a go and got mid table, make a change from not bricking it every away game.
