QPR boss Mark Hughes gave a damning verdict on the match officials after his team’s controversial defeat at Bolton.
Rangers were denied a perfectly good goal in the first half at the Reebok Stadium after Clint Hill’s header clearly crossed the line.
Wanderers went on to win 2-1, with Ivan Klasnic’s goal giving them a priceless victory.
Hughes said: “I’m really disappointed in the performance of the officials. The referee was let down by his assistants.
“Clearly the ball was over the line. The linesman is there to see that – that is what his job is. The linesman didn’t see it.
“Laughably, the FA have come out almost immediately and said they’re in favour of goal-line technology.
“Today, it wasn’t about football. We just need officials to give us a fair crack of the whip. “

Poor officials is obviously a problem but I'm more concerned about the way M Hughes picks hus team and spends money. Keeping Kenny in goal and playing Onuoha is nothing but poor leadership.
Yes the ball was over the line, but if the linesman did not see, it's not a goal. Also if Sparkless was fair, his goal was offside and I didn't hear any complaints about that. Never mind though, when Sparkless is sacked he can find another mug club with real ambition.
