Hughes shakes life into Fulham

MARK HUGHES branded himself and Tony Pulis “two daft Welshmen” after having the last laugh in their feud as Fulham completed a Barclays Premier League double over Stoke.

Hughes and Pulis fell out in September over an Andy Wilkinson tackle on Moussa Dembele, refusing to shake hands in that Carling Cup tie or in last month’s league game at the Britannia Stadium.

But despite another tempestuous affair between the two sides on Saturday, the two managers buried the hatchet, pressing the flesh both before and after the Cottagers’ 2-0 win.
