Recent reports had claimed that striker Kenwyne Joneshad found a pig's head in his locker at the Clayton Wood training ground as a prank. A statement on the club's official website said: "The club takes seriously reports of an incident at our training ground this afternoon. A full internal investigation will be carried out and those responsible for any unacceptable behaviour will be dealt with in accordance with the club's disciplinary procedures." It is believed that a number of squad members were left feeling angry following the alleged prank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jones, none-too-pleased with this practical joke then stormed outside and allegedly smashed the windscreen of Whelan's car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew Le God Posted 17 May, 2013 Share Posted 17 May, 2013 Kenwyne Jones is a Rastafarian, so a pig's head in his locker isn't going to go down well. Not that it would even if he wasn't a Rastafarian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that it would even if he wasn't a Rastafarian. "Jones, who has scored eight goals in his last 14 games, is a devout Christian and said it was important for him to feel he had done the right thing morally. The 24-year-old was also grateful for the help he had received in making a rapid recovery from a serious knee injury, which he also put down to his faith."

pangy Posted 17 May, 2013 Share Posted 17 May, 2013 Bit of comedy from the stoke fanzine,there take on the brick through the windscreen what actually happened was that Crouch tried to get the brick first but didn't have the mobility to get to it so KJ threw it towards Jerome, Jerome couldn't control it properly and it bounced yards away from him before hitting the window. Owen saw the whole thing from the comfort of his chair and is expected to give an in depth analysis of the incident on MOTD2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VectisSaint Posted 18 May, 2013 Share Posted 18 May, 2013 Why do Chirstians have a problem with pig or is it just it's a dead animal that he's upset? Jones is a devout Christian, evidently. By definition therefore he is not a Rastafarian, which is not a Christian movement. There is some commonality, as there is with Judaism. Rastafarians, like Jews and fundamentalist Christians will not eat or even touch pork as it is believed to be unclean (Deuteronomy 14:. Really not surprised that KJ was very angry about this "prank", whoever it was shows a complete lack of sensitivity or understanding of someone else's beliefs.

SNSUN Posted 19 May, 2013 Share Posted 19 May, 2013 I have this down as a Saints win. I just think we'll up our game for the last day of the season and finish 11th or 12th. Even a draw wouldn't be a bad result though, that should see us gain a place or two. It's two opposite teams playing each other really, they've got one of the worst disciplinary records in the league, we have one of the best. They hoof it, we play it. I reckon Rickie will want to go out on a high here after a good first season for him. COME ON SAINTS! An extra few million in the coffers for placing would be very nice!
