Laws verdict:

"It was a turning point, because you're down to 10 men - and you've got to have 11 men to have any chance of getting a result against West Brom. But it upset quite a lot of people, particularly the supporters and the players and myself because I didn't think there was anything in it to justify a red card."

"It's so easy to use every excuse under the sun and have a right go at the referee, that's the easy option. I'd rather not take the easy option. I'd rather say I still believe we should have done better - even in those last two minutes of the game when we had to run the clock down."

"We had to make the right decisions, but in those last few minutes we allowed them to get the cross in and ball-watched - and, of course, the one man you don't want to score the goal does."

"It's soul-destroying. But I said to the players if you want to we can sit here, put your head in your hands and sulk for days and use the referee as an excuse - or you can move on.We deserved more, no doubt about it. Nobody can question the desire, commitment and drive we had."
