I`m struggling to think of any occasion at any of the teams he has managed, maybe Gillingham ?

In fact, we have a fairly decent record there looking back.

Can we formally apply for WBA to play their games against us at the Britannia then?

Looks like he is Welsh of possibly Italian lineage.

Based upon losses becoming draws I think we'll stay up. :-)

I remember us losing 2-0 away at Gillingham in 98. I think Ade scored both. I was sat right behind Chris Waddle when one of our players kicked the ball out of the ground. One of our fans shouted "Chris, we'll have to buy them a new one"! Waddle replied "What with"?

How times have changed.

I rather stupidly found it funny to start a chant of "Pulis Out!" whilst walking back to the railway station in Stoke after an away win. Without any Claret on my person and baring a midlands accent, I imagined it would be hilarious.

Unfortunately it worked too well. The Stoke neanderthals around us joined in immediately and started discussing "our" tactical problems and team selection. I nearly drowned on my own hubris.

Pulis got them to the Prem that season.

That team in '03... with the exception of Blake, awful. Just shows what a top job Stan did for the club.

Jensen, West, May, Todd, Camara, Chadwick, Branch, Grant, Farrelly, Blake, Facey.
Subs: Weller, Ian Moore, Alan Moore, Chaplow, O'Neill.

No he didn't .. the year they were promoted we drew 1-1.

I know he did................all very average, and he did a good job with them.

That's the point I'm making. :geek:
