With our fairly cheap squad but tight nit group comprising of the team, board and fans we are showing vocally and on the field that it takes more than money to stay in this division.

Tony Pulis is a tactical genius. The man could set a team of old ladies up not to lose! If we stay hopefully he will get some dosh to get us some firepower. EAGLES!
A new era of total football is on the way to Selhurst Park!! |

Pulis made me nervous when we went on that run of games in which we really didn't try to win and I thought maybe even he had lost a bit of faith in his team. The last two matches the reins have been loosened a little and the performances and set up have been spot on. I feel the players are finally in tune with their roles in the team and the performances have oozed confidence. TP has timed it too perfection and also played far better football than I felt he was capable of and now surely only an Act of God can send us down, although it is Palace. That's me - Til we are absolutely safe I still wont (or try not to) get too carried away but all this survival lark means is we have to go through it all again next year But if Pulis is backed in the transfer market I wouldn't mind betting we kick on and aim for lower mid table (or even higher) next season. He is certainly capable of that as he has proved it with Stoke. If he is given money for a prolific striker and strengthens a bit elsewhere why not?

We could have gone into today's game already relegated if we were still under Holloway and Cardiff would have stuffed us with Malky McKay as their manager. Luckily we got Pulis and he has performed wonders and pretty much saved us now. The Cardiff fans have had to put with Vincent Tan changing their colours and sacking McKay to replace him with a rookie and they are going down as a result of his meddling. I imagine there was a lot of banging heads with hands for real after the game.

Tan must take the blame for their probable demise by instigating a ridiculous manner and change of manager and then recruiting one with no Prem Experience. Increasingly likely that all the clubs relegated will have managers with no experience in the league. We have done the right thing. Thank God Karanka etc. never came.

Sorry, I'll tone the sarcasm down for you next time...maybe add 2 winks.

Thanks to Pulis the owners are not now fretting on which division we are in but how much prize money we'll receive on top of the £60m and tv appearance money!
