This is not one of the sticks to beat Pulis with. They did well to draw with high flying Reading in those circumstances 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Furthermore, as if Britt would ever willingly work under Pulis again. Link to post Share on other sites

I think it was a deliberate but crude attempt to make Britt instruct his agent to get him the heck out of here. If rumours are to be believed he would have likely ended up with a cut of the sale but the spin would have been yet again saving SG a fortune on wages and bringing some cash in (so he could waste it on more overpriced mediocrity). 1 Link to post Share on other sites

If he did something about player discipline, maybe he wouldn't have to be so defensive? 2 sendings-off in 4 games doesn't bode well for their survival. Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah going down to 10 men is never really something anyone wants (other than the opposition). They had 1 shot on target in the 2 games they went down to 10 men. But they only had 2 shots on target in the 2 games they didn't have a man sent off so either way it's not exactly great reading. But regardless I think Pulis is heavily in favour of a defensive style, especially judging his time with us, alongside his previous clubs too. Mainly for FFP reasons it would be poetic if Sheffield Wednesday and Derby both went down. 😂 3 Link to post Share on other sites

I think we’re underestimating the genius of Tony in employing this tactic 3 Link to post Share on other sites
TeaCider24 12,639 Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 (edited) Lee Johnson, last at Bristol City, is in talks to be the new Sunderland manager. My own feeling is he won't do particularly well there. Link to post Share on other sites
RiseAgainst 3,793 Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 (edited) I hope he doesn't take the job. He's a good manager! (Though the Mackems could probably ruin the reputation of anyone at the moment). Link to post Share on other sites
