Academy report - Tony Pulis

[Blue Llama]

heard about this earlier and could not believe that anyone in their right minds would decide that Tony Pulis was the right man to have anything to do with academies. In fact I don't think that he should be anywhere near a modern football club. For him to influence football coaching for academies would be like asking Bernard Manning to revise rules on sexism. For the first time in decades the Premier Academies are providing world competitive players to England's young teams and now someone wants to change it! Why?

"What we need is full size pitches for the under fives and long throw-in training. We also need to practice shouting get rid of it"

And make sure there is plenty of merchandise in the club shop!

I was at Gillingham as a youth when he was first team manager. To be fair i quite liked him but his whole coaching staff and set up was very basic. Emphasis on running and fitness. Nothing technical. He wouldn’t have five a sides or working touch or anything that. No rondos or anything I would say was fun. Got results in the lower leagues though and had a pretty decent career.

A fair summary. It’s probably fair to say that his style of management is either a dying breed or has already died a death.

Hes not what any club needs when running an academy.

Before I buy into PlanPulis I'd like to see what Sam Allardyce or Sean Dyche could come up with.

His idea's regarding the academy is pretty decent to be fair, he was saying 95% of kids will never make it in the game but are kept on to make sure the 5% get games, the 95% are then fucked off with their dreams in tatters usually without the education needed for different careers, pullis wants universities and colleges to get involved
