You've probably posted this at the worst possible time, as there's a lot of doom and gloom on here at the moment (for some reason).

Personally, I think Pulis is doing what he has to to make our inadequate squad competitive. He's on course to keep us up, which would be a phenomenal achievement, and then hopefully work on improving the squad over the summer and push on from there.

If we go down it won't be Pulis' fault.

To be honest he's given us a fighting chance but that is all.

I think we would be already relegated, but for him.

Depends what your individual take on it is son.

If you watch Football as a source of entertainment like going to the movies or going to a comedy club and happy to pay £25 odd quid to be royaly entertained then as you know TP is not the compare/Host you want to hire.

If however you want to brag to your Milwall or Charlton or in my case Brighton chums too that we are premier league then and get all the shizzle that comes with being premier league, then, well maybe he is the man.

Let me turn the question on you, how do you now feel since your board sacked him for playing boring negative robotic football over a long period of time in favour of exciting creative moving forward dynamic football ?

Is the Hughes style of football that much different from Pulis? From when I saw Stoke at Palace it seems it was just pass the ball around the back 4 a bit, then either a defender of N'Zonzi humps it forward, Crouch knocks it down and you play for second balls. Didn't seem this 'progressive' new football that Hughes was trying to implement that I'd heard about.

Probably doesn't help that I think Mark Hughes is an arrogant pr*ck

But in answer to your question, I'm happy with Pulis. Done a great job with some very limited players. His style is frustrating at times but seems to be working, although he does seem to be getting more and more cautious.

He was the best possible choice under the cirumstances and came just in the nick of time to give us a fighting chance of staying up. He knows his business and is honest as well as being good with the media.

Yes, I would be really interested in this answer. Because at the moment the style of play feels like a necessary evil to buy us time and therein revenue. But in two or three years we would like some entertainment, do you think we will get it with TP?
