Dowie was a 'legend' for taking us from bottom three to promotion in just over half a season. He was a legendary cvnt 18 months later. It takes more than one success to get the accolade and for it to stick. Big chest and massive boobs [Link]

Folklore yes I agree - a la Hilaire, Allison and Lombardo but isn't legend status something that trumps even their time with us? Ian Wright, Steve Coppell and Jim Cannon that type I mean. I can't put TP in with the latter yet. Way too soon. Edited by Kermit8 (06 Apr 2014 1.29pm) Big chest and massive boobs [Link]

Quote collier row eagle at 05 Apr 2014 5.17pm If tony keeps us up, will he get hero/legend status even above Steve coppell? What do you reckon? I say he will. Don't get caried away. Pullis has done fantasically well but he'll need to match rebuilding a struggling side into promotion contenders, with a third place finish and a cup final to match the great Stevie Coppell.

Of course he will be a legend. We started the season with 80% of the fans expecting to go straight down again and by the time Holloway left that expectation had risen to about 99.9% Pulis turned our bunch of ramshackle misfits into a team that others found hard to beat and he will most certainly be a legend in Steve Parish's eyes anyway as keeping us up will have earned the club loadsa dosh They were not . Holloway had lost the plot and did not know his best 11,having signed 16. Millen steadied the ship,and Pulis has continued the excellent work. Legend No. But doing a great job.

Pulis though I acknowledge muist even be surprising himself with how well its gone since he came in. Most people thought it would go down to the last game even if we stay up. I think not. I think we will go to Craven Cottage with nothing to play for and the lucky Palace fans that get a ticket will be partying while Fulham cry! Wouldn't it be lovely to actually be safe against Fulham.. So unique too!

I hate to be pedantic but isn't there only one 'L' in Pulis? I'm not the best speller though so I may be wrang.

I think to be a legend you have to have an exit that keeps your reputation intact. Dougie Freedman was definitely a legend.
