We allowed them to bully us - Robins

Stoke City boss Mark Robins spoke to BBC Sport after their 3-1 defeat at Portsmouth.

"I'm really disappointed, they set the tone right from the start and we didn't live with that.

"We allowed them to bully us all night, I also didn't think for one second the referee was going to give a penalty and then he did, it is what it is.

"Let's have it right they've thrown themselves to the floor, they've fouled us, kicked us and we've had nothing.

"It's all the dark arts, they've got experienced players in the other side of the game and it's old school football."
