I'm afraid I don't accept that players care about 'style of play' and wont sign for Pulis. He's attracted plenty of decent players in his time, Crouch from Liverpool, Huth from Chelsea, Woodgate, Owen, Tuncay, Etherington... Fletcher and Evans here...
There's tons of dross 'footballing' teams in the Prem these days. Look at Palace as an example, they barely score any goals, play no football at all, yet they seem to be able to attract big stars...
The fact is, we don't open the purse strings. It's that simple. All we do is go after Championship fodder.
Pulis stated he needed 5 higher quality players and we've signed 2. It's a joke. The club has been ran like a joke for the last 3 years...
Would this have anything to do with the guvnor you think not releasing his money before the Chinese REAL take-over?
RE: 2016 (Final Day - Closed) - WBA Summer Transfer Window - Beefy 1965 - 01-09-2016
Our wage sheet must be looking great at the moment, big earners off the wage bill. Sess, sicknote, lambert. Mid range earners chester, poc, gamboa. Doubt the 5 in (total) are any where near those 6 out (total).
So the wages are looking trimmer, just like the squad.
Room to add to the squad now without ant worries over FFP now !
What excuse will we have in January,
Maybe slightly better off than last Year but with all our relegation enemies spending dosh we have gone backwards,
What if Evans , Yacob and Rondon get Injured
Wafer thin squad , asking for trouble !!!

God knows mate
I suppose Pullis will have to stay now
Unless he walks .............
Cant see many other Managers keeping us up,
Maybe when the takeover is cleared by the FA, come Jan and we are outside the bottom 3 (hopefully)
We can add to the squad then ........ IF
Just as I said, so will agree with uo. Though to be honest I'm disappointed, but who knows could be interesting -- or not!

RE: 2016 (Final Day - Closed) - WBA Summer Transfer Window - Stairs - 01-09-2016
OK Off to bed now. I cant stand it any more. Maybe I will wake up to find out we have a loan striker heading our way...................

By the way, if you are reading this as a guest. Come on!!! It's time to step up and join us - we need people to share the pain with!!
RE: 2016 (Final Day - Closed) - WBA Summer Transfer Window - Beefy 1965 - 01-09-2016
Shits about to hit the fan
WestBrom official club site posted on twitter Lloooooolz after we signed Kanu
Deleted within seconds but not before our local Journo's picked up on it !
Oh dear we are really a laughing stock when this hits the shelf tomorrow
====================================================================
West Bromwich Albion have risked the wrath of their disillusioned fan base with an ill thought out tweet.
Albion fans were already voicing their frustration after a disappointing transfer deadline day today.
And just moments after announcing the free transfer signing of Hal Robson-Kanu on Twitter, the club's official account tweeted the message 'LOOOOOOLLLLLLLLZ' and hastily deleted it.
