rooney Posted 14 January, 2014 Share Posted 14 January, 2014 . Stoke fume as Jones downs tools Submitted by tribalfootball.com on Tue, 01/14/2014 - 06:54 Share on emailShare on print Stoke City have fined Kenwyne Jones after he downed tools on Saturday. The Daily Mail reports Jones has been fined two weeks' wages by Stoke after texting manager Mark Hughes to say he was unavailable to play against Liverpool. The Trinidad and Tobago striker was hit with an £80,000 penalty after failing to report for Sunday's game. Jones, who has six months left on his contract, contacted his manager on Saturday night to say he had no intention of turning up at the Britannia Stadium. Stoke were unsure whether he would carry through his threat but it became evident that the 29-year-old would not be playing after he failed to attend the team's pre-match meal at the club's Clayton Wood training ground.

Saint_clark Posted 14 January, 2014 Share Posted 14 January, 2014 Hopefully they keep him and keep fining him. It's a shame because he has got the potential to be an effective player in the Prem, but his work ethic is all wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
View From The Top Posted 14 January, 2014 Share Posted 14 January, 2014 Apparently it all kicked off at the training ground on Friday when Jones blocked a player in (the name starting with A that I can't spell) and wouldn't move his car resulting in it getting a huge f**k off dent and plenty of subsequent argy bargy. He went out on the razzle in Manchester on Saturday night and spent Sunday shopping at the Trafford Centre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you'd said he'd gone out on the razzle in Stoke on a Saturday night, I'd probably have called foul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
