Bitter w@nker!
Crystal Palace boss Tony Pulis: "We are really disappointed to have not got anything from the game. The difference between the teams is spending about £350m. The weekly wages of one of their players would probably cover half my team and if I was their manager, I would be sat on the sidelines with a cigar in my mouth."
The difference between the teams is that one side are coached to play football by a manager, the other is managed to play at being a coach disregarding football. Tactics were obvious from the first 20 seconds when I saw 4 regimental lines comprising of 1,4,5 and 1 player(s). even when we scored it took them 10 minutes of us passing the ball about at the back to stop them sitting back. You don't deserve your fantastic fans at Crystal Palace Pulis. You are destroying any ounce of talent left in your players. How the 7 teams that you have managed still manage to retain any fans after watching anti-football under your management is beyond me.
If we played 19 teams like this twice a season I wouldn't be going to watch football.
