Swansea fans said Stoke city's Nigerian winger, Victor Moses "cheated" to win a penalty as Stoke beat Swansea 2-1 on Sunday, Swansea manager learnt his voice to the cries when he said, Moses should be ashamed of himself after the winger went down after an Angel Rangel challenge. but Stoke's chairman, Peter Coates is of a different opinion. He said on BBC radio 5 live, that "He (Hartson) spoke like what he probably is - a Swansea fan... He is calling him a cheat and said he never touched him. Well, he did touch him. The evidence is there.... We're very angry about our player being called a cheat," added Coates. "His shirt was pulled and there may have been minimal contact but he was travelling at speed and he went down... I didn't think John Hartson's comments were balanced in any way, shape or form... I accept Alan Shearer did make a good counter point but he (Hartson) was so completely over the top, for us, that was completely unacceptable."
Stoke assistant, Mark Bowen's comment is "out of order".
