Now that's done PLEASE employ someone to run the club. And then let them run it Agree on first point. But there's no chance of DC employing someone else to run the club at this stage, so pointless going on about it. He told us such in the recent interview.

I think it was only fair to give monk the chance to show what he can do with his own players and backroom team He did. It was shocking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@owlstalk Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 At least the appointment of Pulis finally fully explains the chairmans bizarre claims that he thinks we aren’t a big club anymore Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owls66 Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 If he appoints Pulis, then he is certifiably clueless. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everywhere & nowhere Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 The points about needing someone proven at avoiding relegation are fine but it’s very typical Wednesday to be told one year that we’ve got to pay top dollar for attractive attacking football and then appoint Pulis the next.

Lawrie’s Left Peg Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 Chansiri recently suggested that fans negativity on social media had harmed the club financially due to lost sponsorship revenue as suitors were put off by the clubs image. Imagine how attractive we’ll be with PulisBall. The only companies I can see wanting to be associated with us now are D-Dinghies (repeatedly fetching hoof balls out of the Don) D-Orthopaedics (neck braces as we strain to catch sight of the aerial bombardment), and D-Mentia as we slowly go mad. Happy times ahead. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morepork Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 I can't say this frills me but equally I couldn't be critical of it as it may very well represent our best chance at survival in this league. Something else that's worth mentioning to those worried about the "style" of football under Pulis. It's amazing how much you can forgive the "style" when you are getting positive results. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick_Turpin Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 I'm the wrong person to ask - I was bored shitless by Carlos in Season Two. Long-ball can be exciting - look at the buccaneering period under Wilko - it's being defensive that kills football as a spectator sport and Pulis has a reputation that seems to be well deserved and something he wears as a badge of honour.

Or are you just suggesting he's bad? Which looking at his more recent win ratio from his last three appointments looks like he'll be giving GM and JL a run for their money..... I must admit, I thought his record was more robust than that but you have to go back several years to see it pick up. Did anyone hang on to Garry's number......

I want to see us be hard to beat, if that meant winning games by small margins I'd live with it, certainly over the next season or two. It feels like too much to ask to be entertaining and stay up.......which it shouldn't be of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
