West Brom 1-0 Hull: How many wins is it now for Tony Pulis in his last nine league games?

Tony Pulis won his second game in a row since replacing Alan Irvine at West Bromwich Albion, beating Hull 1-0 thanks to a second half goal from Saido Berahino. The victory was only WBA's third home victory of the season in the Premier League, but in truth it was a game of little quality or real incident, and the Baggies will just be happy to have taken the point.
