Apparently only a couple of the existing squad are under contract for next season so he'll have the opportunity to completely rebuild it.

Can only assume anyone saying this is the most boring football they've ever seen didn't experience the Pulis tenure, or was so bored that they spent most of it asleep and therefore have no recollection of it.
Battle of the England spinners as Dom Bess and Jack Leach play in the 2nd XI match between Yorkshire and Somerset.
Michael Vaughan's son Archie is playing for Somerset. Meanwhile Flintoff's sons Rocky and Corey are playing for Lancs 2nds today.
I believe Palmer-Houlden has been training at least one day a week with our first team when circumstances allow (as has Stokes), so you'd assume the intention is for him to be around for preseason at least to see if he can step up straight away. Might be that he plays a similar role to that of Conway a couple of seasons ago where he's on the bench every week and learning off the others, whilst getting as many minutes as he can.
Fair play, I didnt think "only beat West Ham because they had a man sent off" and "only beat Southampton because Downes was missing" could be topped for idiocy, but the OP has managed it.
Tedious waste of bandwidth, and now going on ignore.
