Top 5 successful managerial reigns in English football

3. Tony Pulis

Tony Pulis needs no introduction for English Premier League fans. He’s probably been the best manager Stoke City has had. But before Stoke, he had several stints in various other clubs, with his time at Gillingham being the best, earning them multiple promotions.

He had 2 stints at Stoke City. The first one lasted only 3 years, from 2002 to 2005, in which time he stabilised the club. But a dispute with the chairman regarding the funds available for transfer saw him dismissed. But he was approached again in 2006, and this time, he remained for 7 good years, till 2013. He guided them to the Premier League and ensured they did not go into the relegation battle, with Stoke City finishing mid table most of the time.
