JibMcdo Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 I think Pulis has something to offer. He's gone away and got Football League playing time in only the league below. There are some question marks over the Hammond and Schneiderlin partnership so when he recovers from his injury perhaps he could play a part. He's the sort of tenacious midfielder every team needs.

Very true, Pulis is so underrated and is probably our best player.
ottery st mary Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 World class if given the chance....He is only 17 years old.
stardustonmyfeet Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 Don't write the man off, I could easily picture him wearing an England shirt some day. (Note to Anthony - if you act quickly you can get one on special offer this month, £44.99 in Sportsworld)
sussexsaint Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 Thats as good as a new signing! (Mr Lowe would probably have said)
SuperMikey Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 He is such a f*cking gimp. Hopefully we can get shot of him in this window.
Saint Fan CaM Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 Pulis is hanging around Saints like a bad smell. Terminate his contract with a severance agreement and get shot. He needs to consider what career he might actually be credible in, coz it sure ain't professional football.
Chez Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 Those that had seen him or had spoken to a Stoke fan about him said he was rubbish when he signed - before being widely criticised for doing so.
CWD Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 Surely it would be cheaper to just release him? yes we'd have to pay off his contract but it would save on medical bills!
OldNick Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 has anybody seen him play for us, and if so how many times? I know he is injury prone but until I have seen him play I cant comment on his ability. It is no use reading what other clubs fans say as Im sure we would have told the Spurs fans that Bale was class, Dean Richards superb etc etc and many would have told Stoke that Fuller and Delap were rubbish but are both integral.
once_bitterne Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 Given he is barely a footballer, I would imagine, in footballers terms, the wage he is on is miniscule to it would really would be best for the club to pay up the few grand left on whatever contract he is on and send him on his way.....

Clifford Nelson Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 Lol The suggestion isn't as bad as it may first seem. It isn't only Pulis, but a number of other players at the club who have left the youth set up behind, and it is now clear that in the opinion of our own management team they haven't got the quality that AP is looking for, i.e. not ever likely to be better than the current team and currently not as good as. Remembering that we are a L1 team the amount of takers for these players must be coming primarily from L2 and non-league football. If they are showing no interest at all in these players then AP and NC must consider if there is any value in them coming in for training until the end of their contracts? Players who know that they are not in the manager's plans are not an asset for the club since they don't try to impress anymore. Without them meaning any harm they detract from the competitive spirit. In that context a decision must be made if it isn't a better policy to pay up their contracts in the short term and keep a smaller, but much more competitive squad.
Arizona Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 Surely we can get someone in L2 to take him off our hands for free. I'm off to Lincoln on Saturday, I can drop him off at Sincil Bank myself if needs be.
scotty Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 Surely we can get someone in L2 to take him off our hands for free. I'm off to Lincoln on Saturday, I can drop him off at Sincil Bank myself if needs be. What have you got against Lincoln then? :confused:

Saw him play a couple of times in pre-season. Awful, absolutely awful. He can't pass, his touch is awful, he can't tackle...he's just diabolical. The sooner we get shot of him, the better.

ottery st mary Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 You need some spare players and cones to help the first team train/practice....Having seen Anthony play and taking into account his high wages and sick bay record....it would seem more sensible to off load Anthony and purchase a couple of extra cones.....at least they would always turn up and be available for practice......
krissyboy31 Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 Saw him play a couple of times in pre-season. Awful, absolutely awful. He can't pass, his touch is awful, he can't tackle...he's just diabolical. The sooner we get shot of him, the better. He was certainly terrible at Cheltenham but I think that is about the only time I've actually seen him play (or at least in a Saints' shirt). Not sure you can make a definitive opinion on one match but seeing he hasn't really pushed for a first team place, I wouldn't be sorry to see him find himself another club.
Lord Duckhunter Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 Apart from his Dad and Lowe/Jan nobody else in football seems to rate him. He's hardly played any games for a number of differant clubs.
CHAPEL END CHARLIE Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 Movie buffs may recall the old Peter Sellers movie 'Being There' in which an incompetent fool accidentally becomes President of the USA somehow , I sometimes think Anthony Pulis has woken up one morning to find himself a professional footballer for reasons no one quite understands The jokes on us however as we are paying his wages .
Matthew Le God Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 Apart from his Dad and Lowe/Jan nobody else in football seems to rate him. He's hardly played any games for a number of differant clubs. I doubt his Dad actually rates him or he'd still be at Stoke. He only signed him because he is his father. Rupert and Jan on other hand have no excuse!
Dark Munster Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 You need some spare players and cones to help the first team train/practice....Having seen Anthony play and taking into account his high wages and sick bay record....it would seem more sensible to off load Anthony and purchase a couple of extra cones.....at least they would always turn up and be available for practice...... ... not to mention being more talented.

He was signed by Lowe last summer. Based on that I'm assuming we're paying him nectar points and magic beans.
Fowllyd Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 He was signed by Lowe last summer. Based on that I'm assuming we're paying him nectar points and magic beans. I don't begrudge the Nectar points, but I think we could make far better use of the magic beans.
scotty Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 Has he ever played a game for us? Depends on your point of view.
Fowllyd Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 Has he ever played a game for us? Depends on your point of view. Well now, he has donned his very own personalised Saints shirt and stepped onto the pitch in several reserve games, plus a couple of pre-season friendlies. He may have been in the darts team, but I can't be sure of that.
ottery st mary Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 He was signed by Lowe last summer. Based on that I'm assuming we're paying him nectar points and magic beans. Not forgetting the Tesco club card points for his very expensive agent and the expensive agent Phil The Whale.
docker-p Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 Romsey Town are short in midfield, but i don't think he would make the grade.
Super_Uwe Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 I do feel a bit sorry for the chap. Having said that it is pretty shocking that he hasn't played a single game. You do have to ask yourself what exactly was the point? It's not as if he had any track record of playing for any club to be honest!! Maybe at the age of 25 he will finally kick on and become a legend.

Big John Posted 7 January, 2010 Posted 7 January, 2010 He was signed by Lowe last summer. Based on that I'm assuming we're paying him nectar points and magic beans. ..as his Dad was promised the managers job. The key in signing players and appointing managers is just as it is in comedy...........................timing
