Stoke boss Pulis slams Fuller conduct

Stoke City boss Tony Pulis slammed the conduct of striker Ricardo Fuller after he was sent off in yesterday's match against Chelsea. Fuller stamped on Chelsea defender Branislav Ivanovic and was given his marching orders.

Stoke City slumped to a 1-0 defeat to Chelsea after Didier Drogba's late winning goal, but for long periods Stoke could have easily have won the game, but for their one man deficit.


"Ric's been a great player for us, but what he's done is a ridiculous reaction," Pulis said.


"He's got a short fuse and we'll deal with it in-house. It's difficult enough to go to Chelsea with 11 men, but it made a tough job for us even more difficult."
