Chelsea boss AVB says no lingering row with Newcastle after bench blow-up

Chelsea boss Andre Villas-Boas insists there'll be no fallout from his bench's behaviour at Newcastle United.

The Newcastle bench were unhappy with the way fitness coach Jose Mario Rocha celebrated Salomon Kalou's strike in front of them, although Villas-Boas, who apologised to Toon manager Alan Pardew, insisted the matter had been dealt with.

He said: "We are not provocative people, we are not arrogant people and that's why I made it clear to him that I wouldn't like him to do it again."
