Lambo on a Rambo

-

PAUL LAMBERT is getting tough with his Stoke stars when they step out of line.

Dutch playmaker Ibrahim Afellay has been banned from the club for the rest of the season after falling foul of the Potters boss.

Lambert refuses to say what Afellay, 32, has done wrong after kicking him out last week.

“‘Abby’ always trained pretty well – it wasn’t that,” said Lambert. “There were just things going on and I thought: ‘No, I’m not having this under my watch. Enough is enough’. It was the right thing to do.

“It was nothing against me, I just called it the way I saw fit. Everyone’s got to be pulling together.”
