Ian Pulman

[Guest]

Has he left for good or has his loan been extended?

[michael]

Folkestone forum states that he was disappointing, and loan was not extended.

He did get sent off though and probably 3 match suspension.

However ,thought that would be up now aswell as seems ages ago when loan commenced.

 

So to answer your question-have not got a clue

[michael]

With the help of Nick Bells conf. south site, i see that loan commenced 26 August so if ended 26 September, have Folkestone had 3 matches since?

 

Maybe Pulmans suspension is now just about over.

 

Seems we may have alot of super sub forwards-Watson, Moses, Pulman, Bulley.

 

Think we need a bit of defensive assistance.

 

Looks like we have got Annon and Barnett for next saturdays vital FA Cup game, and possibly an unfit Oates.

 

Oddly enough, to me, Bulley has the physique suitable for a central defender, and i reckon that Pulman could make a decent full back.Striker he is'nt imo.

Food for thought?

[Guest]

What evidence do you have that Pulman could make a full-back? Has he ever played there?

[michael]

Guessing, being contentious and playing 'Ron Manager'

[michael]

Thinking a bit clearer, i guess its the Margate fixtures he would be suspended for, so 3 games would be Waltham, Newport and Braintree, then i guess avaiable again,depending when the suspension started.

 

Maybe the club could clear this one up?

I'm fed up with reading stuff about how Pullman is not a striker. The guy needs to be given a decent run in the side first.

[Guest]

Hhmm, possibly. But hopefully not in ours just yet.

[Guest]

Is that because all our regular strikers are doing so well then?!!!!! Tend to agree with Richard, look how long it took Che and all the flak he took on this site now he's Mr Margate!

Ian Pulman had most of the pre-season friendlies to prove he deserved a first team place, he did little to show hes worth it, and has done little ova 2 yrs to prove his worth, ship him out and use the money for a new defender or midfielder, waste of space is Pulman, may as well bring back Phil Collins if thats what you want up front.

[Guest]

I tend to agree. Liek everyone else, I saw Pullman's potential early last year, but what I did see of him in the pre-season I thought his touch was way short of his best, he looked slow and over weight. Given that, I would certainly look to Rocky, Che and Moses as being the first three (it might be interesteing to give Moses a start ahead of Rocky) but then with Bulley and Darren Watson I'm not sure we can afford to wait for Pullman. Sorry, but 11 goals between the two of them still has Rocky and Che as the main men with Moses pusing Rocky for a starting place.

[MargateMan]

Exactly, with so many proven strikers (Watson did play well sometimes, more often than Pulman) And Jjunju has looked better than Pulman as well, even in this short time, I think Pulman should just be shiped out, and the money used for better use

[MargateFan]

Difficult one this, as Ian is a fan's favourite and we have seen his potential on the pitch in times past.

However, tend to agree that he did not shine pre season, and we have at least three players who are proven goal scorers, Moses perhaps has not had as many chances to shine as I would like to see, but Rocky and Che have been slotting them in, and it would be a foolish manager that made way for an unknown quantity before certain quality.

Sad for Ian, but I think he could do well to knuckle down, improve his discipline, and earn a place in the first team by his conduct while he waits in the wings.

Your last paragraph is the real problem. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/bow.gif" alt="" />
