I'm saying nothing as if I do, I'll be called an idiot.

Baggieman, I think many of us have been torn between a desire to stay in the Premier League, for many reasons, and the football that Pulis believes is necessary for us to achieve this. I, for one, am coming to the conclusion that he's wrong and that team such as Leicester, Watford and, yes, Bournemouth demonstrate that there are other ways to do this, ways that allow attacking football, team spirit and passion. We may have team spirit, I don't know, but we seem to be lacking the other two. It would be ironic if, in this season that everyone says is not the one to be relegated, Pulis managed it for the first time.

I agree with a lot of what you say, this season has been a little odd in terms of results and surprises, we have tried expansive football in the past and ended up going down, maybe this year we could have done it we will never know. As I said earlier, three years of recruitment issues may have left us with a mini when we need a jaguar, perhaps with an aging squad we are playing the best way we can for now ...... change takes time or perhaps we're just crap.

Both reds were the right decision but the penalty was doubtful (I was at the game but I've not seen replays).

We only pulled our finger out in the second half and we played with better with 10 men than 11.

I assume Lambert will replace Rondon up front during his suspension and Sess will come back in for McLean so Gardner will probably keep his place.

better than .... you know we only play one half, that has been our way for a couple of years or more.
