Stoke face league leaders Manchester United at the Britannia Stadium on Sunday in the first of their six remaining games this season.The supporters have a right to say what they want to say and do what they want to do - that has always been my philosophy," said Pulis. Pulis, who is in his second reign at the Britannia Stadium, has had to face the criticism himself but it is not something he allows to bother him.They were booed by home fans at half-time in their 3-1 defeat by Aston Villa, a loss which heightened their relegation fears.But the crowd have been good. There haven't been many occasions at the Britannia over the last six or seven years when they haven't got behind the lads.Supporters have grown frustrated this season as Stoke, who have never finished below 14th since promotion to the top flight in 2008, failed to progress up the table despite significant summer purchases.People can talk about the previous seven years at this club and say it has been one of the most successful periods it has had, but that counts for nothing.Pulis brought in Charlie Adam, Steven Nzonzi, Maurice Edu, Geoff Cameron, Michael Kightly and Michael Owen last summer.
