Must have watched a different game to me
Sounds like he had it prepared before the game.
And what is Pulis witttering on about not liking: "I thought in the first half we found it difficult to cope with Cardiff. They're very good at what they do, they have an identity and they play to that identity.
"Whether you like it or not, they do it very well."
Is that not a compliment?Quote:

He said that City were comfortable throughout.
I think he's being a bit cheeky there.Quote:

On the other hand I suppose it's a compliment.
Sounds about rightQuote:

Plasmarw is the old Waterhall schoolQuote:

Boro fans have mostly reacted badly, saying it was a rubbish game and both sides were poor, but we were effective.
The game probably wasn't that great for a neutral, Boro's Traore and Hoillet and possibly Zohore apart, there weren't any flair players out there...although I love to see us strangling the life out of the opposition and am delighted with the deserved 3 points and controlled and professional performance.
We don't need journalists fawning over us. Many of our fans don't really seem to enjoy the games that much judging by what I read on the message boards.
None of this will matter if we are 2nd come 3pm May 6th
Yep it's a compliment , good job done reported for us against a very well funded side .Quote:

I thought Friend was their best player. While their Traore was potentially dangerous and at times I thought he was going to do something spectacular he was nullified well.Quote:

Nobody bothers about facts on this messageboard - I didn't see why you should be any different :hehe:Quote:
