I was pleased 3 years ago when Pulis took over, and immediately moved us out of relegation favourites to safety.
Then we played Leicester (in the April when we were safe and Leicester were doomed). We were 2-1 up and then we had a corner 10 mins from time and Leicester looked lifeless. Another goal then, and Leicester would have been out of the game, and looked demoralised.......But I looked at the penalty area, and there were just 3 men in their box. Trevor Francis was commentating, and he said "I can't believe this - Tony Pulis has just ordered his central defenders back to the half-way line!" Leicester then won possession and broke, and Jamie Vardy (who I'd only just heard of then) scored for them, then (I think) he got the winner 2-3.

Leicester took great confidence from this win, then got 5 wins and a draw from their last 7 games to stay up.
Next season they won the League, and Vardy became a household name. So you could say that Pulis won them the Premiership in 2016, and Vardy demanded his own salary!

You might win games by sticking all players behind the ball, but Pulis should have looked back on this game, and realised that going for goal wins matches - and keeps Turnstiles ticking over. I went off him that day as Albion Boss, and only forgave him this time last year when he brought Brunty and Mozza back, and let them play a bit of football.
