You may be right March...lets hope so. The closer a group are, I would say it probably increases the liklihood of such things happening, particularly in sport when tensions often run high, even in training. It is still not good to hear and you just hope, as with the West Ham spat last year, that it is put to bed as quickly as it happened in the first place. It was put to bed by the club but the supporters carried on debating the issue for weeks. Seems like there are training ground stalkers who like to create mischief.

Otherwise they have a nasty habit of festering. Perhaps PR was playing a practice match of First 11 vs Wanabee 11. I could see that getting a little tasty ;D Yes, I expect Whitehead, Delap and Collins would get tired of having the piss taken out of them by Tuncay, Kitson and Lawrence.

I'm not generally known as a Rimmer but this is all a bit silly. I have seen many players squaring up at training on a Thursday (admittedly at rugby) only to play in perfect harmony on Saturday. I can't believe our boys are such delicate flowers that they can't overcome a training ground dust up.

I have it on fairly good authority that all is not well in the camp right now and hot on the heels of Kitson's bust up with Reid, a similar dispute took place during Friday's training session. It would appear that several of our squad were involved in punch up that threatened to get out of hand by all accounts. Pulis wasn't at the club on Friday and training was conducted by Peter Reid. I know that there are several training ground lurkers who post on here, so perhaps they could shed some light. If true, I suspect that rumours of frustration and anger in the camp could well be true...If they are, then they need nipping in the bud right now before it undermines that spirit that has been fostered over this last 2 seasons. You have it on "fairly good" authority, but you're not at liberty to discuss it. If I knew even a tenth of what you ask us to believe you know, I'd go on Millionaire and win it twice!

These things do go on at all clubs but I agree about the need for the spirit to be right , anything less and we are fucked so if people are ricking the boat , get rid

Peter Reid like the summer signings seems to be a bit of a bloody disaster.

Peter Reid like the summer signings seems to be a bit of a bloody disaster. I have always had serious concerns over Peter Reids appointment and the reasons behind his move here.Basically I think he is just using us to get back into football again,... here in the UK. The body language betweeen him and Tony is not good, but having said that Tony will always back his No 2 in times of player squabbles which is probably the right course of action. I don't see his arrival as necessarily a good move personality wise.I don't think that they work well together. Whats even worse and unforgiveable, is that he is a scumbag scouser, and therefore should be sent packing immediately. ARGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH.

I bet the 'rumours' will blame Whitehead or Collins! I don't think anone will believe that Dean Whitehead could have enough influence on anything to cause a riot, based on what he's shown lately.

Damn, and there was me hoping a number of players had finally found the bollocks to confront Pulis about his team selection...

It is fair to say that neither Whitehead nor Collins could be blamed for the events that allegedly took place.

Good mate...bored with no game this weekend but OK.
I was asked not to mention the players identity and on the basis that I sometimes pick up some very useful and true Stoke City information, I have obliged.
I know who was involved and why, but I don't know how serious it was/is. Hopefully, as I said above, it was over and sorted as quick as it started.
I think it is fair to say that tensions are very high amongst our squad of players right now...several are carrying knocks and are not at their best...Frustration with themselves could be as much to blame for this spat than anything...Who knows?

I really don't know mate. I was told what happened, who was involved and why. I was surprised by what I was told to be honest, hence the question in my thread title.
Everything else is pure speculation on my part. It would appear to me that all is not well in the camp, and frustrations and tensions amongst the players seem to be running high. That is just my thoughts though and my interpretation of the conversation that I had.

So, this incident happens in view of folk that are down at the training ground and yet Johnno peddles the crap that he's not at liberty to say who was involved. It aint as if you're saying anything out of turn when it happened both in public and has already being witnessed.
Truly pathetic really.

If this is true, and I am not saying it isn't, then somebody who was there could confirm it with or without mentioning names surely????

If this is true, and I am not saying it isn't, then somebody who was there could confirm it with or without mentioning names surely???? Seems no-one was down at the training ground that day when it happened 'well not anyone who posts on here anyway'. Would be wrong to say on here what the spat was actually about but to not name names when it happened down at the training ground in full view of those that were there really is pathetic. Even if no-one was down there at all to witness it that's not to say that names cannot be mentioned because if they're prepared to have a spat in public then they should have no gripe about their names being mentioned. What a pointless thread. At least when i put a thread on here a while ago about a Stoke player getting twatted in a strip joint i actually named the player involved, yeah i got all the usual flak about it being bollocks and all that but to put this sort of thread on you've really shown no balls there Johnno.

Nice one! Just to save me going though all the posts, who was it was got twatted in the strip joint, Lenny, Ricky, Griffin?

The player in question was Kitson. Strip joint in Castle and it was my golfing buddies mate that stuck one on him.

You certainly gave the impression that you know far more than you're letting on, and that it was fact rather than rumour. I think it's somewhat disingenuous to speculate or postulate upon what you think you know you possibly might have thought was maybe going on.
