Not seen todays game but that's 3 PL defeats in a row since Xmas, 10 conceded and 1 scored. How is it that after Xmas we always seem to nosedive? After 10 games undefeated are we now about to lose 10 in a row? TPs tactics away from home are seriously negative. Swansea IMO are a far better bet to finish in the top 10 this season than we are. They have been criticised for playing tippy-tappy football but it is proving far more effective than our long ball tactics and playing not to lose. It's not working and our 'solid' defence is no more. Disappointing to say the least.
PP were were woeful mate and played the same ****e we played in our first season in the prem, hoof it out only for it to come right back at us over and over again until they score. After 5 seasons of playing the same tactic it's time for Pulis to hang up his cap and move on as he really does not have a clue on how to win a game. He is a maverick manager that luck has landed his way quite a few times, but this past few seasons he has been found out. The only way he will go is, if the fans vote with their feet!
They dont have to vote with their feet mate, they just have to stop being fickle. Tell him what we think when we play absolute tripe rather than just stting their!
Very much like that idea Smithers, but do you know what, I don't think it would phase Pulis one iota as he has the upmost contempt for the Stoke fans anyway!!
No your right mate, but fan powere converts to press coverage. Press coverage creates pressure and as an influence on brands which impacts sponsership. Look how bad Blacburn looked during the whole Kean debacle. Not even coates in his love in with TP would go through that, the BET365 brand and Brittania brand would be affected. Having said that, if everyone used a rival betting company and sat silent at games, I wonder how long Coates would go before realising?
To get Mr Pulis's attention your going to have to shove a sign up his arse, cus that's where his head is!!!!
Pulis does not really care about the Stoke fans and he cannot make that anymore obvious. He is there to do a job and that's it. In his book the only people he is answerable to are his employers. I do agree though that the fan base should be making their thoughts more vocal as he will then have to listen to it!
Take songs from films and musicals and adapt them. 28,000 people singing "if I had a left back" would get everybody's attention. That ones is obviously from Fiddler in the dugout!!
Er I tried that with my Les Mis post and everybody bar 2 ignored it. Nevertheless, I shall bravely carry on - with Sid James as Pulis (there is a likeness you know), new movie called: Carry On Splurging the Chairman's Money, and getting nowhere fast. Starring Sid James as Tony Pulis Mr Blobby as Gerry Francis Hattie Jacques as Dave Kemp Charles Hawtrey as Peter Coates Barbara Windsor as Denise Coates Kenneth Williams as Peter Crouch Bernard Breslaw as Jermaine Pennant (yea I know, does stretch the imagination a wee bit) The rest of the the cast, play (with) themselves. Produced and Directed by Plastico/CovFox STOP PRESS COMING SOON TO A STOKE CITY FORUM near you, the Oscar nominated film of ordinary football folk in ancient Staffordshire; A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Championship ...starring Phil Silvers as Marc Antony Pulonius
