Anthony Pulis Jr. (born July 21, 1984) is a Welsh professional football player. He currently plays for Stoke City where his father Tony is manager. He has made numerous appearances for the Wales under-21 team.
Bristol-born Pulis began his career as a trainee with Portsmouth whilst his father managed the club, turning professional in July 2003. Despite his father's sacking after only 10 months in charge, Pulis Jnr. stayed at Fratton Park, hoping to break into the club's first team. He made just one first team appearance for Pompey, as a substitute in the 2-0 League Cup win away to Cardiff City on November 9, 2004.
However, having failed to make an impact on the first team, he rejoined his father, signing for Stoke City in December 2004 [1], where Pulis Snr. was manager.
Almost immediately after his arrival at Stoke, Pulis Jnr. joined Torquay United on loan, making his league debut as a first-half substitute for Alex Russell as Torquay lost 2-1 at home to Stockport County on January 1, 2005. However his appearances were limited and his loan spell was cut short.
In February 2006, Pulis Jnr. joined Doncaster Rovers on trial [2], however no permanent deal materialised and he returned to Stoke. Towards the end of the 2005-06 season he was loaned to Plymouth Argyle, linking up with his father for the third time in his career [3].
Pulis Jnr. remained at Stoke for the 2006-07 season. Pulis Snr. returned to Stoke as manager in June 2006 [4]. Pulis Jnr. moved, along with Martin Paterson, to Grimsby Town on loan on November 23, 2006 [5]. However, his loan spell was cut short due to injury [6]
