Complaints have been made to the FA and FIFA that Tony Pulis is doing his job too well -- and consequently this is seen as being unfair to other Managers in the English Premier League

Since arriving in November Pulis is suspected of using “team bonding”, “formation solidification” (organisation) and “motivation” to get results. It is also rumoured that he encourages self belief by players. But this can not be confirmed before going to press. This approach is deemed detrimental to other teams in the League. Some think it is outrageous – even scandalous – that Pulis uses such nefarious methods in order to get results. There is even a theory that Tony Pulis has discovered the secret to the loaves and fishes trick -- turning 7 points into 43, as he has done. Truly miraculous!

Pulis has made it difficult for opposition teams by implementing a revolutionary technique known as “stop the other team and nick one at the other end.” The boffins at the FA and employees of the Blatter School Of Ethical Football, are scanning their rule books to see if this is illegal -- or if they can make it retrospectively so. A friend in Fleet Street tells me that Roy Hodgson is locked in a room watching Crystal Palace’s last 5 games to see if he can replicate the Pulis magic in Brazil.

Here is a nice little article written by Patrick Collins, Chief Sports Writer in today's Mail On Sunday Sports Page:

Cardiff conjure their own tales of the unexpected
Cardiff City believe that Crystal Palace tried to discover their starting line-up at least a day before the teams met on April 5. In a furious letter to the Premier League, they claimed that this constituted ' an attempt to obtain a sporting advantage'. They note that 'Palace succeeded in their efforts and achieved an unexpected 3-0 win'. And they reflect: 'We will never know the extent to which the confidential information affected the outcome of the match'.
Personally, I haven't the faintest idea if their complaint is well-founded. But I do wonder why anybody should take a great risks in order to win 'a sporting advantage' over Cardiff. I marvel at the suggestion that advance knowledge of the teamsheet could deliver a decisive advantage. And I smile at the notion that any away victory in Cardiff could be described as 'unexpected'.
But if that really is the case, then the League might scrutinise some of this season's other, inexplicable shocks at the Cardiff City Stadium. Such as Spurs (0-1), Newcastle (1-2), Arsenal (0-3),Southampton (0-3), West Ham (0-2), and Hull (0-4). And I scarcely dare mention Liverpool (3-6). For fear of starting a scurrilous rumour.
