Can't we just get someone in who likes to see their team play with flair. FLAIR!!!!!!!, FFS fliar gets you relegated. Fitness, organisation, knowing what your job in the team is, and discipline get you promoted.

BingleyOwl Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Mate, if Bruce was a dinosaur then Pulis is pre big-bang. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig enock Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Any Wednesdayites who think we are better than Tony pulis are deluded , we need a manager who can build this club up, coaching set up is poor , training ground is outdated, recruitment team is non existent.. pulis is a experienced manager who could help us move forward ... I'm sorry all this rubbish about crowley is baffling . Yes he's got potential , but look what Wednesday did to Jewell and Wilson.. chewed them up and spat them out ,its too big a job for a manager with potential ..

handworth52 Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 the question should be why it shouldn't be pullis . 48 goals in 46 games at boro last season , 11 men behind the ball at home he would make Carlos's negative tactics look like man city . he is ok if you want a manager to try to get you 4th bottom in premier league that's it. the atmosphere will turn toxic within 2 games if he is ever in charge .he is prehistoric yesterdays man.

The Wall Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Don't remember anyone being too unhappy with Bruce. Also, I'd take Colin here tomorrow, but it'll never happen for obvious reasons. Could you imagine Barry Bannan playing in a Tony Pulis team? We would need a complete overhaul of personnel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marcx666 Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 The plus side to Pulis, is we could make a fortune selling bleach on the concourses to wash your eyes out from watching his brand of football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look where they are now, bet their fans are glad that a WINNER like Pulis, is not their manager now. My old boss was a West From fan, he'd been a season ticket holder for 35 years, in the last season under Pulis he didn't renew he's ticket as he was fed up of the utter bilge he served up. I've spoken to him since and he says he much prefers it in the Championship, playing decent football week in week out. The Premier League isn't the promised land that Sky will have you believe.

Having read your argument, I tend to agree we need someone experienced but it has to be someone who can deal/work with our current squad. My choice would be Pearson, mcarthy or perhaps Holloway. Atleast with the first two, the players wouldn't get to hide behind the manager as they tend to say it as they see it. Both are 'big' enough not to be intimidated by the job/crowd.

katie melua Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 (edited) Is this the same Tony Pulis that completely destroyed West Bromwich Albion? You know, took a side from top 10 to relegation, producing some fabulous performances such as going 5-3-2 away against 10 men Huddersfield, yes that's right 10 men If there are Wednesday fans on here that are wanting Pulis, yet called for Carlos to be sacked because of his football - well enjoy what's coming to you. I mean go and have a watch of their play off attempt against Aston Villa. You think our spineless performance was bad against Huddersfield - just take a look at that one then. Here we go, one nil down after the first leg so next up, second leg at Villa Park. Pulis lines up with one striker on the pitch and the Boro have zero shots on target. They need to score at least one to take it to extra time and two to go through. If you are happy with that sort of approach to a play off match, well, can't really say anything more. No wonder why Boro fans were so angry after that game Edited September 2, 2019 by katie melua Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are happy with that sort of approach to a play off match, quite frankly football and ambition are not for you Yup appointing him would be the closest thing to crazy we have ever been. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
