    Amazing how its soon forgotten the wins against Man U ....Chelsea....Arsenal....Spurs....Liverpool. The only team we never got anything from was Man City. I remember how buzzing this board was that finally we weren't afraid of the "top six" Then that second season where we beat everyone below us and around us. Only the last season with Pulis went sour for whatever reasons, I sometimes think we will never know why. Meanwhile Stoke were thinking they would kick on with Hughes......They didn't, they got relegated too. All the hype all the hate toward Pulis, yet there he is again top of the championship after just failing in the play offs last year. Love him or hate him he's a good manager worthy of respect. I never liked his style of football but he will always have my respect for the above reasons.

    Here here! He never refused either to go on a pre-season tour, nicked a taxi cab, refused to climb hills, or spat on his contract. I am glad we have Big Dave but good luck to Pulis as Boro are playing good football and will be one of the title contenders for sure.

    Not amazing really.. I hate the bloke. Everything he stands for.
    Shall we talk about the two Villa games in a week. Or the ultimate park the bus in the 0-0 draw at home against probably the worst Villa team in their history.

    Genuine Questions Boingy
    Do you go to games?
    Did you pay to watch the drivel he served up?

    Here lies the answer - " you hate the bloke" even leaving West Brom nearly a year ago!! You mention two games against Vile but Boro could have gone up last year! If we look at two games - Bolton and Forest then what would some make of West Brom? Two games is pathetic to come to any conclusion.

    Forget last year its history! Nobody could not say Boro are not doing well this season with good football as evident by their league position and unlike us - they have played some decent teams!

    I hope Pulis parks the bus on Friday but doubt very much this will happen. Boro will be up their as promotion contenders - love him or hate him!

    Put some of your hatred to the Board - the Directors who then appointed Pardew - the players who have disgraced West Brom or the players who decide not to go on pre-season tours. Now that will be positive energy as it's present not past tense of an individual who left last year!

    Al, you've got a reputation (on here) as somebody who doesn't understand our history, but just wants us in the Prem, come what may.
    That's why I presumed you were a nouveau fan who loves, but doesn't understand, 'footy' (as the nouveaux call it).
    You've realised you were wrong a year ago, and have been defending yourself ever since, so I can't believe you're berating Whicka for keeping on about Pulis - it's you who bores us all to bits bringing his name up 3 or 4 times a week. Either let the b*stard go, or go and support Boro..........but don't mention the tw*t again, if you don't mind.

    That board gave that idiot more money than any other manager in the clubs history.
    BTW it was three games against the Villa I mentioned.
    As far as hating the board I gave up on that when they sold Earnshaw and Horsfield in January leaving us one striker.
    I have no time for either Chadli or Dawson but fail to see how slating current staff as being positive energy. Bit like the idiots who booed Barry when he came on Saturday.
    I reckon Boro would have gone up last year if they had have had a progressive manager who knew how to take the game to the opposition.
    I agree this early in the season is too early to come to any conclusion about Albion. And as you correctly say pathetic. But haven't you just done exactly that with Boro?

    Did he not leave a year ago and not me who keeps bringing him up!! Don't understand the hatred though as Pardew did more damage. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and we are where we are, for a reason!

    For the record, I was glad Pulis went, and it was time he went, but for me Pardew was worse, and for that I blame the Board on every account.

    It will be a tough game Friday and our first real test!

    I would say there is not a single Albion or Stoke supporter that would want him back. Or very few. That's tens of thousands of people. Which says it all.

    People trying to convince me he plays attacking football may as well shut up because he doesn't. History tells me that.

    People trying to make me respect him also may as well shut up because it ain't gonna happen.

    That idiot cared more about his own reputation than the proud history of this club and it's supporters.

    You'll stand in silence on your own at Boro Al when the majority (who you seem to represent on numerous occasions last season) sing to him "You're football is ****"
