I don't agree.
Pulis was attempting to turn us around.
The job was not going to be easy, it wasn't going to be quick. Patience was needed and the season was not going to be one to remember.
Survival was the name of the game.
He stopped us from losing every game. It wasn't pretty, but it wasn't meant to be.
He first got rid of the dead wood. Bare bones so he could add to the squad.
I thought he was doing a great job and was waiting for his incomings to enrich the team and get us back on an even keel.
But the pull of Stoke City was too strong.
He did leave the Club in a very good position for the next manager, and there is no doubt in my mind that Ian Holloway profited from what Pulis had done. Usually a new manager first has to weed out the players who he didn't want to be there, but that was already done for him.
Pulis went on to better things, and Holloway was able to start to bring success to the Club.
I thank Pulis for what he did. Had he not done that, then it was likely, in my opinion, that we were heading for a relegation season and Holloway would not have been interested in a Club heading towards Div 1.
I really thought it was a pull for Holloway to make his mark on the Club. Half of the job had already been done and all he had to do was bring in players and make the team his own.
I detested the bloke before he came to Argyle. Look at his litigious past, it says it all.
