So after all the uproar from their errouneous Tweet last night, West Brom have come out and apologised for taking the piss out of Marouane Fellaini.
Sorry if a joke about a footballer not having a shirt on under his tracksuit top has caused such outrage. It was not intended as a slur

Among those who took umbrage to it was United's sub goalkeeper and Anders Lindegaard:

Fellaini has now taken his tracksuit off, fortunately he has a Man Utd strip on underneath #WBAMUN — West Bromwich Albion (@WBAFCofficial) October 20, 2014
It was bound to happen. After Stephane Sessegnon put the Baggies in front, it was a case of cometh the hour cometh the man. Half-time substitute Marouane Fellaini took all of three minutes to draw Manchester United level with his first Premier League goal for the Red Devils, and what a beauty it was.
The fact that West Brom have since retaken the lead should not take away from Fellaini's accomplishment.
