done verywell over the years at stoke maybe its time for stoke to move on with a different brand of football and try challenging for europe rather than been a club happy to finish mid table
what he's done is keep a club in the Premier League , team of Wigan 'esque stature .. perhaps they desire CL football , or fancy winning the league .. get fuckin real ..
Don't anybody kid themselves, Pulis has spent a lot of money and the squad of players he has assembled is of low quality for the money. My cousin has been a season ticket holder at Stoke for over 30 years and is glad to see the back of him and his rugby tactics, as are most Stoke fans.

Agree Andy, sure I heard earlier they are the third biggest spenders in the last few years, only behind City & Chelsea. Sure some figure close to 90m was mentioned over the last 5 or so years which surprised me.

That's right M, around £100m and he plays kick and run. Is it known if he's been sacked or left by mutual consent?

All I've seen is " Stoke announce Tony Pullis leaves by mutual consent " on SSN

Right, so Coates didn't sack him. I know they had a great relationship and often travelled to home games together. The problem for Stoke now is trying to either replace the players they have, which would be costly or get them to play some football. I'm not sure those players can suddenly start knocking it around playing nice football though. Could all end in tears for them.
