He'd need a core of hard-working, physically strong and determined players to at least get his style of football started.

We've got very few of those and that'd be before he'd want to bring his own players in.

Imagine our squad trying to replicate Stoke's style? It'd be horrific watching us trying to outmuscle other teams, we barely match up to teams as it is.

Is Pullis still with the agency that can not be named? No doubting he's done a good job with Stoke but be very surprised if he came here unless he fancies a very big challenge.

Still stranger things have happened , and with the delay announcing Bowyer as manager and Snake on holiday apparently, makes you wonder

He is with SEM. The big three SEM clients of Kean, Coyle and Pulis were all Premier League managers last year. Two relegations and a near relegation later - now they aren't.

Its not beyond the realm of possibility, wouldn't be surprised if there's an element of hoping it doesn't happen mixed in with 1 or 2 of the absolute assertions that it can't. Even now I suspect some fans would rather see the PL slip out of reach than hire a manager with an even more rudimentary playing style than Allarydce.

He's overrated, anyway. How much did he spend at Stoke? Something like £80m in five years at Stoke and what do they have to show for it? And their style of play is still as anti-football as ever. I'll say this for Allardyce, at least he could get us into mid-table without spending stupid money.

Pardew is now 2nd longest serving manager in the Premier League, with a tenure of 2.5 years.

If Venkys have any ambition for the club (unlikely) they could do a lot worse , Pulis would give us a chance of going up....

As stands at the moment , we have no chance of going up ever again !

How much did he spend in the Championship though?

no thanks.

done a great job at Stoke but don't want him here.

wouldn't play to Rhodes strengths and doesn't develop young talented players from Academy.

this is what we need a manager to do.

just played 1 way which is Long ball football to a big target man

Surely we aren't seriously debating Pulis as Rovers manager...?

no thanks.

Good man. Preemptive strike. :)

We are in dire straits Stuart and looking at yet another wet behind the ears rookie

What I meant was there's no chance he will come or that Venkys would approach him.

We just need to sign Bowyer up and 'move on'. :rolleyes:

In fairness, not much. Not saying he isn't a good manager at this level, but he's spent a king's ransom to make Stoke an unattractive, mid-table side. It's all academic, because he wouldn't touch Rovers with a barge pole.
