Yes much of the football served up under Smith, Gould, Little, Clarke, Irvine and several others was dross but I can honestly say that I preferred all of it compared to Pulis' Stoke. Sorry but I want to be entertained and if that means being entertained in the Championship rather than bored rigid in the Premier League then I'll take it. Watching Ardiles' team in the third division was infinitely better than Stoke under Pulis. If he is appointed then I'll give him time, but if he reverts to thuggish hoofball I won't be staying to watch it.
