Pig head prank gone terribly wrong in Stoke locker room
Table of Contents
Stoke City striker Kenwyne Jones was so unimpressed with a locker room prank that he walked outside and reportedly threw a brick through teammate Glenn Whelan's windshield.
Winger Brek Shea posted a picture on Instagram of himself with a real life pig's head, allegedly found in Jones' locker, with the caption "Locker room banter gone wild!"
But the Trinidadian, who is a Rastafarian and does not eat pork, didn't see the funny side of the joke and allegedly smashed the windshield of a car belonging to Whelan, who Jones was convinced was behind the prank.
Jones' girlfriend, Kissa Abdullah, obviously angered by the incident in the locker room and expressed her displeasure on Twitter.
"The club takes seriously reports of an incident at our training ground this afternoon," read a statement on the Potters' website.
"A full internal investigation will be carried out and those responsible for any unacceptable behavior will be dealt with in accordance with the club's disciplinary procedures."
Speaking to BBC Radio 5 live on Friday, Stoke manager Tony Pulis also vowed to get to the bottom of exactly what had gone on.
He said: "We have a smashing dressing room, and there are four or five lads who are always up to something. There is always banter going on.
"I honestly don't know what's gone on this morning, I've missed all of what's happened. I try to stay away from the home dressing room as much as I possibly can, I let the lads get on with it.
"We will look at it tomorrow, I will have a chat with the lads and find out exactly what has happened. From that point onwards we'll let everybody know exactly what the situation was."
The incident comes just days after retiring Stoke striker Michael Owen had his car covered in eggs and flour by teammates.
