Ronnie Moore felt some controversial decisions cost his side the three points against Southend.

The Manager cited a penalty not awarded and a free kick not given for a foul on Antony Kay as key incidents during the 2-2 draw. The later red card to Steve Jennings and bookings shown to Kay and Ryan Shotton mean Rovers will now be without all three at Yeovil due to suspension.

He said: "How we could be 2-2 at half time is beyond me. It was stupid defending. The first one got a deflection that Danny couldn't do much about but the second one Ian wanted two touches when he only needed one.

"We had umpteen chances after that. I can't fault the attacking football we played, and there were lots of positives out of the game. But having led twice we should be good enough to go on and win the game.

"There were one or two controversial decisions made. That's three of our lads missing for Yeovil, and if Goodison isn't back in time [from international duty] it's four. I think their 28 should have been sent off...it was a foul on Kay and the referee played on. Then Jenno had a little gamble and he played on again. Then the linesman got involved like he did all afternoon. There was a blatant penalty just before half time for a foul on Savage and I've seen them given for the run with Ian at the end. Some of the decisions were beyond me.

"Jenno will miss two games but Kay and Shotton will be back for Scunthorpe. With the three of them missing it will take some working out. We're alright down the left, but the problem area is down the right and centre back if Goodison isn't back.

"The crowd were brilliant. They got behind us and they'll be as disappointed as we are that we haven't won. We made a really good side look ordinary."
