    Tony Pulis Leaves Stoke

    According to a lot of noise on Twitter, Tony Pulis has left Stoke.

    Nothing confirmed in the mainstream sources yet.
    Madness, as you know, is a lot like gravity. All it takes is a little push.

    Highly unlikely. Him leaving Stoke will have been at the club's instigation.

    It's premier league football though. He's kept them up when bigger clubs have been relegated.

    I wouldn't be surprised if stoke go next season.

    He spent so much money the Stoke fans expected better than they were getting I think

    Rafa Benitez is 5/2 favourite to take Stoke City job, can't see it happening.

    Of Stoke's 190 Premier League games since promotion in 2008, they have had >50% possession in only 13. Dominated. I'm shocked he lasted this long to be honest.

    Really? He has had a very good budget mate yet a lot of his signings haven't done great. His hoofball along with being the dirtiest team in the league I'd say he's a poor manager myself. All about opinions I suppose.

    I'm not the Tony Pulis fan club. Just think he took them up to the EPL, and stabilised them as a middle of the league team. A lot of bigger clubs would be happy with their last 3/4 years league placings!

    He's a **** manager. Instead of teaching them playing football he's teaching them rugby

    This means that each of the other 91 football league clubs have changed their manager since Arsenal last won a trophy

    Also since then 23 Arsenal players have gone on to win trophys with other clubs

    Having thought about it, it was a ridiculous suggestion :

    Is this the guy who allows dressing room banter to extend to pig-heads in lockers and smashed-up cars?

    Done a good job but in reality a one trick pony whose style of football is eye-bleedingly brutal. Would still have liked to see how Barcelona dealt with Stoke though!

    Bet you have a Pulis cap just like his dont you ;) I know what you're saying mate he has kept them in the EPL. But for the cash he's had I honestly thought they could do better. His football though was hard to take in most days.

    taken them as far as he can, their progress has stalled.

    I like Stoke, just for the nuisance value if nothing else. Nothing better than watching MOTD if Stoke had beaten a committed on the deck footballing side and then had to watch Hansen and Lawernson squirm about them being " very good at what they do". Anything but admit that even in the best league in the world some teams just don't like it up them.
