Kevin Doyle today accused referee Mark Halsey of robbing Wolves of two major decisions in yesterday's 3-3 draw against Tottenham.

The Bolton official failed to send off Alan Hutton for denying Nenad Milijas a goalscoring opportunity when left two yards from goal in the 39th minute, although he booked the player and awarded Wolves a penalty converted by Doyle.

Then Halsey disallowed an effort when keeper Heurelho Gomes spilled the ball into the net when Richard Stearman challenged him 10 minutes from time.

"I think it was a sending off. It was probably one of the more obvious ones that went against us this season,"said Doyle.

"If the decision had been given, it certainly would have helped towards us getting three points.I don't think the 'goal' from the Stearman incident should have been disallowed."
