Tony Pulis Quotations

I've been chasing Leon for about a month and a half. He is an example of the sort of younger player I want to bring to the club.

We've been trying to bring people in. We're just hoping that we get a little bit of a break.

I have a way of working and how I like to work. I have worked with Mark before at Portsmouth and have great respect for him.

I thought it was a very open game, and both sides went for it. Obviously we're disappointed because we thought we had the better chances, but it was a good game.

I thought Mickey did well when he came on against Brighton on Saturday. He's champing at the bit now. He's missed the last couple of games so I'm sure, if selected, he'll be up for it.

When you're playing those teams, you have a responsibility to other clubs.

He had a blow on his ribs, so we'll have to see what he's like later. He'll go and see the doctor tomorrow. He's been sent home to rest.

He does more work for charity than any other footballer I know.

We'll look for one or two long-term loan signings from the big boys next season. If we can do that, it will help, as long as we get the right ones.

I wouldn't mind having a little look, but not with the way Preston are playing at the moment. They're playing three up front, with one down the middle. There's no way I'd waste three players marking one. Usually the two wide players will occupy the full-backs, and then you'd be left with only one centre-forward and three centre-halves marking him.
