BG_Villa_Fan Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Remember when everyone wanted Pulis at Villa? You would be hard pushed to find a manager doing a better impression of Martin O'Neill. We've won the transfer window I guess. Now let's hope we can actually get points and finish above a Pulis team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 They should be very afraid. I dont know if WBA can afford to have Pulis spunk the sums he did at Stoke and get away with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 I am sure I went on record as saying I would rather get relegated than hire that cretin. Imagine all those years of scrimping and saving, the Benteke war chest and then having this bell spunk it all on a bunch of 'honest lads' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jarpie Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Imagine the reaction on VillaTalk if we signed Chester for £8m! They paid 8 million for Chester?! Holy **** that's crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oaks Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 As it's been said before most people wanted Pulis ahead of Lambert...and given the choice I still would. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Certainly, and I don't feel embarrassed about it. Sherwood, on the other hand, may well be an improvement on both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimzk5 Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 I distinctly remember saying I would take pulis till the summer to secure safety but wouldn't have him long term, anyway Rumours that he has made an offer for Jon Walters and peter Crouch.

dont_do_it_doug. Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 They're in trouble. They are still desperate for pace and they have no money. Pulis joined on the understanding they would be sold if he kept them up in my opinion. Oh dear oh dear. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudevillaisnice Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Very surprised at the business they have done so far this summer. We might struggle but they seem certain to struggle to me even with Pulis in charge, maybe they need to generate funds by selling Berahino.

villa89 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 maybe they need to generate funds by selling Berahino. They have an owner who's trying to flog the club to the highest bidder. He's not likely to invest money into a club that he hopes to sell soon. There's been a very similar situation happening at another midlands club for the last few years.

VillaChris Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 We last finished above a Pulis team in 10/11 (and even that was only a point or two) so let's change that before all this criticism of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa89 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Not really sure whether you were agreeing with him or not! Sorry, I was agreeing with him. I'd say Pulis needs to flog Saido so he can run off and buy crouch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
