Former Stoke boss Pulis 'cheated' over FA Cup final loss to Man City

Former Stoke manager Tony Pulis expressed his disappointment over the club's FA Cup final loss to Manchester City in 2011. Pulis, who was the manager at the time, believes he was cheated by Stoke when the team lost 1-0 to City at Wembley. The defeat was particularly bitter for Pulis, as he had led Stoke to their first major trophy in decades, but it has taken on added pain in the context of recent events.

Manchester City's subsequent financial troubles have cast doubt on their achievements, with the club reportedly found guilty of 115 breaches of financial rules by the Premier League. While City has denied the charges and is expected to appeal, Pulis feels a strong sense of injustice about the 2011 FA Cup final. He noted that Stoke fans have been asking when they will get their FA Cup, and he too yearns for that victory.

However, he emphasizes that he does not expect Manchester City to forfeit any of their recent titles or trophies. Pulis believes a points deduction and a hefty fine are more likely outcomes of the current investigations.
