Sour grapes maybe but his side that came to the Riverside were a disgrace. Diving and faking injury all over the place. Almost threw the game away from a commanding position after needlessly losing discipline.
His reaction at the final whistle (refusing to shake Pulis hand) suggested that the complete lack of class from the players came from the manager.
Bang average for me. Done as expected with the resources he's had and a bit of a nob to boot.
Totally agree, he's a decent enough manager but he went down in my estimation that night with the way he set his team up to play and also his pitch side antics. Whingeing to the officials at every opportunity and encouraging his entire backroom team to do the same.
He was even gesturing and pumping his fist towards the Boro fans as he went down the tunnel, it was actually quite childish behaviour from a grown adult.
