Pulis

Pulis

I don't really have anything against Pulis as some seem to have on here.
If I remember reet, Pulis did well at Gillingham at the same time North End were enjoying a resurgence in the late 1990s and brought together the two sides as unlikely rivals for a few seasons.

Didn't they have a habit of stuffing us 4-0 at the time?

He did quite well at Sheffield United, less so at Stoke.

Forgot he had gone there - he was probably a natural for the old Wimbledon team. In fact didn't David Moyes think of trying to get him for us at one point? But whatever Murdock could not cope with him - fine player, though, you have to admit that.

4-0 the season we got to the play-off final against Bolton 5-0 the first match of the season after. I remember getting back to my car after that second match for the short drive back to south east London with some North End fans going all the way back to Preston just walking past. I tried to make a joke of it and said them: "I think that is what you call a bad case of post play off hangover." The answer I got was rather more blunt: "Pile of **** it what I call it."

Aye they were a bit of a bogey team under Moyes
 
Gillingham used to drive me nuts ( Asaba never helped ) but I can live with the even handed football............

The shit he pulled however, when we had half a chance of staying up when he was told to pull the plug by twatty and he did, can't be forgiven.........

Nah..He can piss off.

Tomorrow, let's pull his pants down, bend him over, splay his buttocks, then ram three points up his arsehole.

Absolutely mate! Just got back to the toon from Preston so can't make the game, please give Pulis pelters!!!!
 
Likely to be a complete non-spectacle as Pulis desire “not to lose” overrides any notion of playing actual football.
 
Pulis has to be considered a successful manager considering his record and the type of club he has managed. However, he has done it by playing dire football, but credit him for his successes.
However, I will never forgive him for toadying to Pizza Face and withdrawing his players. Pizza Face as least has the excuse that we sacked his son - Pulis does not.
 
Unsurprisingly he dragged Gestede from out of the wilderness in his first game and lumped high balls at him. Loads of Boro fans in our village and they'd all been calling for Monks head but when they got home after the match all looks horrified that they'd condemned themselves to watching that. I don't think you realise how dire his tactics are until you have to watch them every week.

Plus Shotton and Grounds as 'full backs' to make a big 4 across the back line..... thankfully our Callum & DJ will not be intimidated by 10 over 6 foot strong men! At least Jonny Howson gives them some 'height balance'.

Big game for Jordan against 'his club' - i wonder which of their 4 CB's will batter him today?

Looking at the Boro forum its seems he's not hung around in making players move the ball forward quickly, something given our back line shouldn't be a worry although Clark has been caught out at times but his arial ability should ensure he's still in the lineup today.

Interesting stat on the BBC website over Pulis, Deepdale not a happy hunting ground for him.

Boro boss Tony Pulis is winless in nine away visits to Deepdale in league matches (including play-offs), drawing three and losing six. His last win there came in January 1998 as Gillingham manager, a 3-1 victory.
