Tough season. Started by Pulis, finished off by Pardew.
I knew Pulis would be bad for our club and thats how it turned out. Tore up the foundations that had stood us fairly well. Now we are in ruins. We need to make some good appointments now - right from board level and down through to coaching staff. Lets be forward thinking and progressive.
I don't think Pulis was entirely bad for us, he came in and did what was needed at the time, the problem was he was here too long and replaced by the cheap option which has left us needing a Pulis type again.
The club has stagnated for too long, others have caught us up and overtaken us.
The fact we still get linked with the same players we were linked with under Pulis makes you wonder who actually signs/ recommends all these players, recruitment team needs a massive shake up as well.
