This season we started with 7 points out of 9 and he gets a new contract. He didn't win another match.
Agreed, he was def the right man and kept us up. Better going down, well that’s inexplicable to me, because there is never any certainty of ever going up again, no matter who is in charge.

We should though have parted with Pulis before this season.
