Pulis delighted for Potters

05 May 2008 - 12:21:12

Stoke City manager Tony Pulis heaped praise on his players after a goalless draw with Leicester City sent the Potters up to the Premier League.

Stoke edged out Hull City for second spot in the Championship, joining champions West Bromwich Albion in the top-flight next season.

Pulis told The Sentinel: "I'm absolutely delighted for everybody. To now be able to take this famous club into the Premier League, I cannot wait.

"It's important now we build for next year. I've never been relegated in my life and I don't intend to start next season.

"I thank all supporters for what they've done and perhaps they can now get the chairman a few beers, so I can have a bit more money to spend.

"The most important thing is that the players get the adulation they deserve. It's not been about today, it's been about the 46 games and it's been a long, long season.

"I'm so pleased for them and for (chairman) Peter Coates after taking such a massive gamble. I thought if he's got the balls to come back and have a go, then I've got to come back to the club."
