Bouremouth boss Eddie Howe to demand answers from refs' chief over Roger East

Eddie Howe will speak to referee chief Mike Riley on Monday to gauge feedback on the performance of Roger East during Bournemouth's 1-0 win at Stoke.

The Bournemouth manager wants answers to why his side were denied a penalty when Ryan Shawcross clearly fouled Callum Wilson as last man in the 11th minute of the match and also how Stoke earned a spot-kick when Bojan fell under contact from Simon Francis.

Howe said: 'I would want clarity on the decisions because I would like to know what was going through Roger's mind.
