He came back early from a holiday to find Tiny Penis had been appointed. Subsequent to this he went to Preston I believe David Moyes became Preston manager in 1998 Pulis joined city in 1999 It was a while ago, I know, but I'm pretty sure I am right? but then.................

At this rate, "Jack Dawe", we are going to need a new dart board because you are wearing out the bullseye. Good arrows, squire! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Red Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 Lansdown wasn't the main decision maker when Moyes was overlooked for Pulis. No reason why there'd be ill feeling between them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HomerRed Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 I imagine they would speak to Moyes as a matter of course if only for his advice and take on possible candidates, especially as he is around and about watching games on doing TV and wotnot. Bristol Sport (rugby) appointed the former England and Scotland coach Andy Robinson a while back . . . not a cheap option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lrrr Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 The only thing I could believe Moyes would have been approached about is his opinion on certain managers we're considering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only people that cant see he's a fantastic chairman are a sad minority of our fans. City do have long-running internal problems but SL is at most on the periphery of that. Incompetent personnel within the club itself have been the downfall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeh Posted February 9, 2016 Report Share Posted February 9, 2016 On 21 January 2016 at 19:54, arpaul said: David Moyes was interviewed before Pulis was appointed. He was PNE manager at the time, and when City approached him he delayed a flight to America just to speak with City. By all accounts, he was prepared to leave Preston because of his affection for Bristol City. When the board reconvened to discuss Pulis/Mr Moyes the board was split. In the interests of a united board, the then Chairman had the deciding vote and went with Pulis. Mr Moyes went to Everton, and the rest, as they say, is history. Maybe this could be the reason why Mr Moyes has an issue? Just to point out before more blame goes to lansdown the above story is correct 100% and the chairman at the time did opt for pulis and that chairman was john laycock not Steve lansdown who was just a board member at that time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

... Posted February 9, 2016 Report Share Posted February 9, 2016 I've never heard so much crap in all me life. It's common knowledge that 'Dave' came second to Little Lee in the final round of interviews for the Head Coach position at BCFC. He's absolutely gutted to have been unsuccessful, and has vowed to become a better person, so he stands a better chance to attain 'his dream job' one day in the future. As such, he is too upset to take another job, and needs time out. Leave the lad alone. Uncle TFR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
