http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/fo...interview-criticising-manager-Tony-Pulis.html Stoke have opted to dismiss Parsons for an alleged breach of contract following an outspoken interview in which he criticised Pulis's style of play and claimed he had recommended Demba Ba and Cheick Tiote. Parsons has worked with Pulis for nearly 20 years but his comments are believed to have infuriated the Stoke manager and high-ranking officials at the Britannia Stadium. The 67 year-old has been given a right of appeal against the decision and his fate will be decided next week, but if he departs the Potteries it will be the third casualty of the season. John Rudge, the director of football, will not have his contract renewed at the end of the season while scout Sam Ellis left last year. Pulis is still facing an uncertain future with his own position a subject of much debate, despite guiding Stoke to the verge of a sixth successive Premier League season. Mark Cartwright was recruited as the club's new technical director in December and he has been charged with improving Stoke's scouting network and player recruitment.
Sounds like a Pulis stunt, bit late though we alresdy knew along time back the Pulis is useless at best he is incompetent!!!
Not surprised at all. Even tho Parsons was 100% correct in what he said, as an employee of Stoke Cify FC, he should not have spoken to the press as he did. Most if not all company's would di exactly the same! Pulis next please
ONB, The chances of Pulis being 100% correct when speaking to the press are not stacked in your favour mate.
