West Bromwich Albion boss Tony Pulis was satisfied with their 1-0 win over former club Stoke City.

Brown Ideye's header - his seventh goal of the season - earned the hosts a deserved 1-0 win over the poor visitors.

"The disappointing thing is we had to wait until the 95th minute to take a sigh of relief, it should have been over before that," said Pulis, who also beat Stoke 1-0 as Crystal Palace boss last season.

"The penalty in the second half, Michael will look at that and be very disappointed, it was as blatant a penalty as I have seen for a long time.

"With the offside goal I thought the keeper had touched it, as soon as he does Brown - from what they tell me - is onside again.

"It's three points, I had a great 10 years at Stoke, a wonderful journey, I left it in a very sound financial and good position. We did wonderful things there from a club which was 14th or 15th in the Championship.

"To take it to where it went was wonderful and it will be years I will always remember but today was about West Brom getting the three points."
