Brentford manager Uwe Rosler blasted referee Tim Robinson after the Bees held Bournemouth to a 0-0 draw.

The former Manchester City striker felt his side should have had a last minute penalty when Clayton Donaldson was fouled but the official did not give it.

“There was a lot of noise coming from their dug out to the fourth official throughout the game and as a management team we felt we had to stand up for our team.

“Their player had no intention of going for the ball. He jumped at Clayton and I thought it was a clear penalty.”

Rosler saw a string of inconsistent decisions that appeared to go the visitors’ way.

“There were a lot of 50-50 decisions going their way in the second, which simply underlines the huge mental strength of my players for digging even deeper to make sure they didn’t get beaten,” Rosler said.
