Tony Pulis has today confirmed that he will be appealing against the penalty handed out by the Football Association following a charge of improper conduct
We changed the shape of the team...when we saw Kenny was playing with three centre-halves and played Walters with three narrow midfielders. We wanted to be strong in certain areas
I am 100 per cent and at the manager's disposal, but it is up to Tony Pulis to put me in the team
What we've done is fantastic, we've qualified from the most difficult group they could have put us in – nine games in Europe, nine unbeaten is an amazing achievement ... To be able to go to Turkey knowing I can rest one or two players is a great feeling. I'm desperate we get a western European team in t...
Stoke City manager Tony Pulis has today been fined £10,000 by The FA and warned as to his future conduct after being charged in respect of media comments which were found by an independent Regulatory Commission to have constituted improper conduct
We’re hoping that there will be a full house roaring us on and we’ll need the backing of our supporters more than ever to help us get over the line
The disappointing and hurtful thing about this judgement is that I have been a manager for almost 800 games and this is the first time I've ever had a charge brought against me

John, Peter's son, is a football nut – they named their son Stan, after Stanley Matthews. When you have got that ingrained in the people that you are working with, it most possibly brings more pressure, because I am so desperate not to let them down as a family, because I know how hard they've worked to...
I think most probably that is my biggest challenge ... because I think everybody accepts there's a level that you can go to, and I think getting to the FA Cup final last year and retaining Premier League status was absolutely amazing. Now people want you to do even better.
You can't manage the expectations
I am very disappointed with the outcome
They're decisions that could have gone our way easily
I need the players to stand up and do their jobs
The big thing here is that we have conceded three goals and we have done that too regularly now ... Our defending has been pretty poor. You can see we are creating opportunities, but we have to be a lot stronger and tighter defensively. We are not at the moment and that is what is causing us problems.

He would have come with a bit of baggage, yeah, but I might have enjoyed that
