Good bargain hunting from Mr. Pulis

As we reported earlier today, it can now be confirmed that Tony Pulis has indeed raided the Riverside for two very decent signings for a relatively small fee. It’s this kind of business that will help keep Stoke well away from the relegation zone.

I was thoroughly impressed with the way the Potters battled last term and they clearly have something of a fortress at the Britannia and if they can get some decent points on the road they should be moving towards another mid table finish and captures such as these, especially the very talented Turkish striker Tuncay, are a step in the right direction.
