Im with you 100% creambun. Pulis has never won anything, apart from a handful of games never competed in Europe, never managed a massive club, never competed to win the EPL, only relegation battles. To many nevers. He is noted for the long ball game and has been sacked plenty of times. We will be in Europe every season, we will be competing to win every competition and game. We need a manger that can prepare a team to win every game and settle for nothing less, not a baton down the hatches and play the long ball in every game. (WS only done that when he had to) . We need a tried and tested manager with knowledge of the British game and experience in Europe at or near the top of a league. He must know how to beat diddy teams and cope with top class opposition. TP is a step backward to the 70s. He will come up here like Warburton and underestimate the SPL and bring in second rate expensive English players. We need a manger that can identify under the radar players throughout Europe. The players are out there. Proude Homme all day long for me. I've copied and pasted from Wikipedia, look at the guys achievements as a player and manager, compare that to TPs achievements.

my worry about Pul is is he maybe think ourleague is easy and make the same mistake as Warberton and Souness in his early years when he thought that guys from England's lower leagues would be good enough to challenge the Tic only to find that better players were needed Pul is doesn't know the Scottish game

Souness first 3 signings were Colin West (a relatively unknown centre forward), Chris Woods the England goalkeeper and terry butcher the England captain. Graham Roberts joined shortly after. Souness also won the league in his first full season. I wish we had someone making those kind of mistakes at the club again.

Are you guys just going online and copy n pasting everything. I think Pulis would be better appointment than Macinnes anyway. I feel as we’ve no money we need to lower expectations as thought Macinnes was cheap option and even he KOd us. We desperately need cash for players also. Last two managers recruited very poorly

Nothing like blowing your own trumpet proude homme, no need to go to all that trouble typing in all that, just give king a call, I don't think he's that interested, pedro, warbs, couple of pure lady's bits, and were left paying money to watch the absolute dross that they deemed worthy of wearing the shirt.

TJBB Paul le Guen's record was just as, if not more, impressive. Didn't mean a thing when he came here with ten players who wouldn't have got a game for Cowdenbeath.

Souness signed guys from England's lower leagues? His first signings were Colin West, the best prospect in England at the time, Chris Woods the England keeper and Terry Butcher the England captain!

Was thinkin exact same thing dutycalls. Loads succesful managers have moved clubs and then failed. I also think a lot of players n managers under estimate Scottish lges. I think that's the case with bruno tbh. He prob thought he could stroll it but turns out tht Chris Miller fae St Johnstone tore him a new hole at the weekend lol.
