This is 100% true That's exactly what he does Defenders for instance - they know their roles 100% clearly.

All subsequent appointments have been of a very similar ilk, albeit within that set there were managers of varying gravitas. The thing that heartens me about Pulis aside from the likelihood he'll improve immediate results is how he'll inject a real structure our play and very clear roles for the players. I have a feeling a lot of our players need that structure - need to have clear roles and simply do their job. Reach has been thrown around literally left, right and centre rather than being given strict authority to simply bang in theose crosses from the left where he excels. I'd expect to see a left-back join on a free - I just dont see any of our squad bar Palmer suitable there in Pulis world. Midfield worries me. Oof, I'd call Jos a bit of a 'chance' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think the Brucey thing stung DC to go rolling one year for Monk. All reports suggest it's a 2 and half Yr for Pulis!! Yea cc I think I remember it being reported 1 year rolling and dc wouldn't say in the interview when pressed . Bruce was the exception yea I was going to say that but hes high profile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it make any difference to DC, considering how unpopular Pulis and his brand of anti-football is or will he ignore that? Much in a way he ignored Monk's style of football after saying he disliked Bruce's style of football. Personally, I hope DC has second thoughts and decides to make a more exciting or forward thinking appointment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many? I don’t think we should employ TP - I wouldn’t! Eddie Howe yes, Ryan Lowe yes, but not TP. However we should support the manager whoever he is until he moves on to greener pastures- mainly because we can do little else! At this stage anyone is a gamble, it’s just a matter of the size of the odds.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owlinmad Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 Appointing Tony is our modern day Jack Charlton appointment. This is the start of our revival. The wheels have started to turn, we will be on an upward trajectory whilst the blades are starting to slide. We will regain our rightful position in the elite league and top dogs in our city. Get your money on us for promotion next season. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not Aye, probably not, it's across Facebook and Twitter too but he's gone with and against the fans feelings before but my thinking is that he should be aware of the negativity surrounding Pulis' reputation or style of football and management. It was said, he was close to getting the job or was considered last time but instead DC went for the equally dull football of Monk. It just seems like a choice that will be divisive but DC is the owner, he lacks footballing knowledge and hasn't brought in any footballing people to help him run the club better and whoever he appoints it's difficult to see it being a success with how we're run as a club.
