Stoke striker Ricardo Fuller was sent off Sunday for slapping his captain, Andy Griffin, after West Ham equalized on the way to a 2-1 win.

As their Stoke teammates tried to restart the match after the goal, the pair became embroiled in a heated exchange near the center circle, which led to referee Michael Jones dismissing Fuller.

"There's no condoning what (Fuller's) done," Stoke manager Tony Pulis said. "He's walked up to Griff and clipped him on the chin and it's disappointing. I'll talk to them both and deal with it on Monday.

"Ric is a volatile player and a volatile person and what he's done will be dealt with."

:giggle:

Rules are rules, You can't raise your hand.

Am I right thinking back that Gerry had a fight/argument on the pitch with Elliott or someone when playing for us?

I know Gerry had a fight with Wise when they were at Stoke and Millwall, any excuse to show this; http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=nb5Igo2LvNs :crylaugh::appl:

But i'm not thinking of that anyway.

I wish I could remember which two of our players it was, can anyone else remember who it was that punched each other from our team during a game- it may have been Tags and Savage but I just can't remember? it was post Premiership-relegation I reckon and I don't think it involved Wisey though the nasty little git may have been at the club......

Anybody?

Tags and Savage, but if I recall correctly it was in 2000.

I think it was Martin Reeves in a friendly against a Spanish team. Taggs weren't impressed.

Tags and Savage.

We had Matt Jones sent off, and drew 0-0 with Arsenal. Peter Taylor's first season in charge.

It was Tags and Savage, but I thought it was Liverpool in 1999-2000,

And no punches were thrown, there were just a couple of shoves.

As for yesterday, it was suggested that Griffin wasn't really fit to play, but refused an offer to be taken off at half time. He then made the mistake which gave the hammers their equaliser.

This doesn't in any way excuse what Fuller did to him, but his frustration can at least be understood.

I loved Griffin's reaction when Fuller was walking off, giving him the big hand gesture and telling him to 'Get off'. Comical stuff, shows great team spirit!

I can't remember which game but can I recall Paddy McCarthy grabbing Stearman round the throat or something. People went mad at Paddy cos he was having an awful game himself. What a joke we were.

Personally I like to see this sort of stuff. shows commitment and that they are trying hard but yes a slap is way over the top.

Nothing wrong with a bolocking for not trying etc

It was definitely against Arsenal.

Millwall at home on boxing day (2006?). :thumbup:

Making a big deal over something petty now.

They are making a big deal over something petty about the referee's U-Turn of the penalty decision last night in the Villa game, Sky Sports News asking was the referee right make the U-Turn?

Yes, of course he was fooking right, It was even a handball = No penalty. I'd be annoying at the time if I was a Hull fan but looking at the replays you can see clearly it hit the bar, I'm for actually going to praise a referee for having the balls to make a decision and change his mind despite originally giving the decision.

(I know this has nothing to do with this thread but they are making a big deal over something petty on that subject)

If you're praising anyone, it should be the lino. The ref was so quick to blow the whistle and give the penalty. He then when to the lino who made the correct decision.

I thought the ref ruined the game a bit last night.

Steve Bennett had a mare last night.

The more I see of Stoke the more I like them.

Them and Wigan are probably my favourite Premiership teams.
