Naked Premier League managers should know better…

Responding to a fan during a Twitter Q&A, Ryan Shawcross kept it short when asked about his former manager's alleged naked bust-up.

The Stoke City defender had been asked about an incident which took place following a game between Stoke City and Arsenal in December 2009. https://twitter.com/DRK_Jacob/status/639036179543916545 Although the incident has never been confirmed by Stoke City, Shawcross' reply - which has since been deleted - appears to confirm that it very much did. Presumably because his Stoke City side had lost the game, Tony Pulis was not a happy man and reportedly cancelled the players' Christmas party, to the annoyance of James Beattie. The story goes that Pulis, wearing nothing but a towel, confronted Beattie and a fight broke out. During that fight, the towel came off. The scrap allegedly continued. West Brom's players better make sure that they're performing when December comes around... H/T The Telegraph
