Stoke manager Tony Pulis is considering an appeal after being fined £10,000 and warned about his future conduct by the Football Association.Pulis was found guilty of improper conduct by an independent regulatory commission over his criticism of referee Lee Probert after a 2-1 Carling Cup defeat by Liverpool last month.He attended a personal hearing, BBC reported.Pulis said: "I'm very disappointed with the outcome. I have requested written reasons and am considering an appeal."The Potters manager was infuriated by several of Probert's decisions at the Britannia Stadium.He felt Jamie Carragher should have been sent off for a challenge on Matthew Etherington, thought a disallowed Jon Walters goal should have stood and that Peter Crouch should have been given a penalty.
