    In his post-match interview he said that Stoke played like the home team and that Snodgrass 'dived' to win the free-kick that led to our goal. What a cock! and before you criticise the opposition for 'diving', get your own house in order, was Charlie Adam Suarez in disguise?
    Your footballing philosophy is a disgrace - give it to Shawcoss, hooof it to Crouch, what a load of ****e!

    He only ever watches half a game, or in today's case 40% of a game <ok>

    On the subject of Charlie Adam, he was a lucky boy to still be on the pitch at the end. Could easily have been given a 2nd yellow on more than 1 occasion.

    Not just Adam, Etherington as well. Looked like he smacked Bassong in the face.

    In anycase, I wouldn't worry about poor old delusional Pulis, stats don't back up anything he's said about playing like the home team.

    Stokes football was laughable at times it's beyond reproach

    If they want to be so one dimensional let them. Found out.

    In fairness to the Stoke fans, they do not seem to be very happy with Pulis with either his 'style' of play or his cyclops view of games <ok>

    Adam's dive was as clear as it could be. How Pulis could say he didn't dive was ridiculous! Snodgrass going down for the freekick that led to the goal looked like a foul but I will hold my judgement on that until I see it tonight.

    After watching the match and then listening to TP's comments I really hope Stoke go down.They were truly awful and i lost count of the aimless punts upfront,absolute crap footy.

    TP,s comments just stank of sour grapes and were laughable.To say they looked like the home team just mystifies me.Utter,utter garbage.

    Quite right we're not happy..
    And I said as much on our board. I didn't see the game but listened to all 90odd mins on the radio. I think? we did OK when Ether's and Jones came on? And Pulis is a whnging, clueless idiot.

    That is coming from a Stoke supporter going on 52 yrs...
    When I heard Pulis I felt sick tbh but the sad thing is, we're used to hearing this crap every time we lose. Regards to Adam I don't know I'll watch MOTD later.

    Good luck for the season Canaries <ok>

    Pulis is a complete prat!
    If CH was to play in THEIR style my season ticket would be in half and returned to them. Ireally felt for the ball today.

    Whilst I NEVER defend Pulis with comments like those he made today...
    Some of think we're utter **** that's your oppinion but, you did'nt see us play Chelesa, we we're the better team, Utd away we scored twice and it's only our 2nd loss this season.

    I agree Pulis is a pratt but given your games and ours this season. If we are so bad? How come we have more of the ball today?

    Chippy? You are one single pt above us as it stands. From what I've heard from two mates who txt me, Norwich we're no great shakes either. True or false?

    Good luck anyway

    I wish you well Norwich fans but we've NOT played like today's performance all season. So it's a rather stupid comment to make

    Me old fruit <laugh>

    Having seen the highlights of a few Stoke games this season I do agree they have played better than they did today, but in the second half they reverted to just lumping it long and hoping.

    The first half wasn't bad as both sides were trying to play football, however the second half was awful as it was literally Stoke lump it long, our back four head it out, we counter, ball goes out of play repeated for 45 minutes. When Jones and Etherington came on Stoke looked more of a threat, although Etherington was lucky to stay on after taking a swing at Bassong.

    We attacked better and defended better and unfortunately for Stoke, Pulis's plan B of lump it long didn't work when up against a back four who were all over six foot.

    You look like a chav

    You look like a Chaaaav!!

    Tony Pulis!

    You look like a chav!

    Best chant of the day, although fair play on the "Your just a fat Luis suarez" chant from Stoke.

    My comment was based on what ive seen of Stoke from the season you were promoted when all you had in the locker was a huge throw from Delap and battering ram forwards heading at goal ! Hated it then and other than no Delap throw ins today it was just "punted" forward ?!!
    Sorry old pall but im in the "purist" camp, football not HOOFBALL !
    Ive seen enough of Stoke to back up my earlier stance.
    My point is i would never want to see a Norwich team play Hoofball, simple as that <ok>
    Its worked for you in the past and you've gain mid table security from it, but i would never want to see it from us, even if it meant playing atractive footy in the championship.
    sorry. but good luck for the season.<ok>

    Sorry
    Just seen it, Pulis was quite right Adam was pushed and you sir are a liar. The Wilkinson foul slight contact/if any = the ref gave a free kick = you score fair enough.

    Next time, be careful what you type before making sure, just a thought... worst thing was not one Norwich fan said, ADAM was indeed fouled again prior to that free kick. Take of the rose tinted glasses and we both move on. A dive? yeah and that yellow will be recinded on appeal, at least I hope it will.

    Still looked like a dive to me. Garrido didn't really touch him But the foul on Snodgrass that gave us the freekick for our goal was very soft and we lucky to get a freekick. So I can understand why Pulis feels aggrieved for that one.

    To say I'm a liar is unfair. Also consider that I'm basing my opinion on watching g it live from the stand and not seeing a replay. So watch what you say before you type it'!

    Also Adam could have easily been booked earlier on.

    Ok this comment (and some of the Norwich ones...) is ridiculous. Anyone with half an eye can see that these were absolutely identical. Both were fouls inasmuch as both players were touched. Both players went down very easily, clearly looking for it. The ref got it wrong with them simply because he wasn't consistent. You can't have your cake and eat it though- call those a dive or a foul, not one of each.

    Funnily enough, the ref then let Adam off very lightly on three occasions which could have got a yellow so all round fair's fair. If anything, Stoke were seriously lucky to end the match with both Adam and Etherington on the pitch.

    Yellows can't be rescinded I don't think.

    NO it isn't your a bare faced one to boot. Or we're you watching a different MOTD? <laugh>
    Simples ADAM did'nt dive, at least we agree on the free kick you scored from, soft at best but some are given some not.

    Yes the Adam one was a close call but I still maintain it was a dive!
