Etchesketch 706 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Stange with ages of managers and how it's changed over the years. Pulis is 62, Hughton is 62, Warnock 72, Hodgson 73. Back in the day Clough seemed ancient when he retired yet was 58. Bob Paisley was only early 60s yet it seemed like he was ancient. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

rickygoo 10,585 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Big Jack had John Harris as a sidekick - he was old, ex pig and a really good football guy. If Pulis wants Trusson who are we to argue? 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites

People like Trusson who have been around the game and in dressing rooms years understand the game, it's not some massive drastic switch where suddenly he's going to be out of his depth. He's TP's new right hand man and he's worked with him many o'times. Quick look on his website, 40 years experience in various roles from playing to scouting and coaching, He's scouted many many games so will have a good understanding a knowledge of players for this level, recently been with Celtic, the guy is no mug, very experienced guy who can offer us a great benefits. Tony Pulis is known to take training himself, so can't see Trusson doing much on that front anyway as well as any other coaches he brings in. Looks a good CV and on paper a really good appointment for us. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully he will oversee quality recruitment 4 Link to post Share on other sites

Just hoping it doesn’t mean that he’s not been able to attract more established coaches to join him Assistant Manager not coach. I think there may be a difference in what he is coming to do 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites
gurujuan 13,415 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Without wanting to pursue an ageism agenda, do we think that the two of them will finally get our “young and dynamic” recruitment drive up and running? There’s not much evidence that Pulis has previously taken that route, but maybe this guy will 1 Link to post Share on other sites

HOOTIE AND THE SHIT TU 30,527 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 1 hour ago, Jim said: TBH I don’t think Chansiri was ever completely sold on Monk? His unveiling at the press conference was hardly a rousing affair particularly from DC? I think you're right I think he went for Pulis before Monk Chansiri stated in his press conference that he had spoken to Pulis before I've also seen somewhere, can't remember where now, that Pulis said the time wasn't right before I'm not a fan of the way his Stoke team played the game, but I'm willing to give him a chance I just hope that Chansiri does by providing him with the tools he needs Otherwise, we'll be looking for another new manager in 12 months, to do yet another rebuilding job 1 Just a bloke, who used up all his luck in one go when he met his wife.
