Ian Holloway critical of referee

Crystal Palace manager Ian Holloway launches a verbal attack on referee Mark Clattenburg after his side's 1-0 loss to Tottenham Hotspur.

Ian Holloway has criticised referee Mark Clattenburg after his side's 1-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur earlier today.

Spurs won the game thanks to a penalty, which was awarded against Palace full-back Dean Moxey, who Clattenburg adjudged to have deliberately handled the ball inside the area.

However, Holloway believes that it was an incorrect decision and went on to suggest that his side will fall foul to more bad judgments over the course of the campaign.

"I don't understand how it was a penalty, or how Dean Moxey could have got out of the way of it. I had three players right behind him," he told BBC Sport.

"It's going to be a long hard season for me with these people. I had this with Blackpool. Certain clubs get fouls and others don't. Tottenham will feel that if they play Man United.

"Do I think I would have got that at Tottenham? No, I don't. I just want a bit of fairness. I want a foul like anyone else would have got one. I've got a horrible taste in my mouth after that."

Next up for Holloway's team is a trip to Stoke City.
