he reckons cheating is a disease in football caused by bloody foreigners
but while he may have a point about the prevalence of diving and feigning injury, these are not the only ways of cheating or cynically gaining advantage in football and his Stoke side have proved expert at many of the other "dark arts"
all cynical foul play is cheating Mr Pulis, deliberate handballs, fouling off the ball, not even mentioning pushing the limits of physicality/violence, any deliberate foul is cheating really, and I can't remember a game where I saw more foul play and cheating than in the 2nd half of our match against Stoke.
I'm not saying that Stoke shouldn't play a physical brand of football if they want, but Pulis is a hypocrite if he thinks his side's cynical foul play isn't cheating.
