So yes he has achieved more than Pulis but so will Rodgers and anyone else who manages Celtic, end of.
Along the way he'll probably get the scalps of a couple of the big boys, but that's about it, the same as Lennon whose honours amount to Scottish football which you admit is shit, his time managing in England was a nightmare with an average Championship side like Bolton, albeit financially ruined, he certainly didn't weave any of his magic there and as a result are now league 1. No honours for keeping them up, but I do think Pulis would have ground out more points for them although I accept it probably would't have been very pretty.
Albions performance today would turn nobody away from football, you should see some of our earlier games for that. The fact is we have not become so hard to watch for the last few games and I, personally, am encouraged by how we've changed.
I'd give lennon some leeway with bolton. Initially he did very well keeping them up after freedman,but behind the scenes the place was a total clusterfuck.
I just don't like pulis's style of football. I'm not particularly having a go at west brom here.
