Stoke stand by Jermaine Pennant
STOKE are standing by Jermaine Pennant despite him facing a possible jail sentence for drink-driving.
Pennant, 29, is in court in Manchester next Wednesday and has also been arrested and bailed for allegedly assaulting a woman in a nightclub.
He was not involved in the 1-1 draw with Everton on Tuesday because of hamstring trouble but could be fit for Sunday’s game against QPR.
Boss Tony Pulis said: “We’ve taken the approach as a club we will look after him. We will deal with it in-house. I want to keep Pennant – he has another year of his contract.”
