    Pulis jokes 'never believe chairmen'

    Manager Tony Pulis is not ruling out Stoke being involved in some transfer activity this month, despite chairman Peter Coates' claims to the contrary.

    The Potters' only movement in the current window has seen a handful of squad players go out on loan and Coates has indicated there may not be much more happening before next Tuesday's deadline.

    However, Pulis believes they could still see some business if the right opportunity comes along.

    Very open

    "Never believe chairmen! We'll see," he said.

    "We are very open to going either way. If there is an opportunity and we think it is a good one, that will never cease at this football club.

    "I think there is always that little bit of room to do some business, but it has to be the right bit of business."

    Meanwhile, Pulis has praised Cameron Jerome for the attitude the in-form forward has shown since arriving at the club.

    With Peter Crouch and Jon Walters being the Potters' first-choice pairing up front this term, Jerome - a summer signing from Birmingham - has had limited game time for the Staffordshire outfit so far, making only 10 starts.

    He has shown his worth by scoring three times in his last four games, though, and Pulis said of the 25-year-old: "He has been smashing.

    "Cammy has been unlucky not to play more often, but Crouchy and Jon have been exceptional.

    "They have really worked well together, but Cammy has done well in respect of his attitude towards training and the way he has worked in training. He has been a credit to himself."

    Alongside Crouch and Walters, Jerome also has Kenwyne Jones and the fit-again Ricardo Fuller to compete with for a place in the Stoke attack at the moment, and Pulis is delighted to see such healthy competition in his forward line.
    Needed

    "We've needed them," said Pulis, speaking ahead of Saturday's FA Cup fourth-round trip to Derby.

    "We have been fighting on four fronts and you need that. It is probably the most important place in anybody's group - the forwards.

    "We have needed those players and we will need them from now until the end of the season."

    Although I very much doubt we will even get close to signing Rodellega, the fact that T.P. has said that is fair enough who knows?
    IF I did say IF we did sign the aforemtioned from Wigan. Ma Lady would be Quids in this year. HE would be my b/day and Xmas pressy all in one.

    We can but dream Potter.
