Neil Warnock laments "disgraceful decision" as Crystal Palace lose at the Etihad

Crystal Palace manager Neil Warnock fumes at a "disgraceful decision" as his side lose out 3-0 on the road at Manchester City in the Premier League.

Crystal Palace coach Neil Warnock has lamented a "disgraceful decision" as his side were beaten 3-0 away at Manchester City in the Premier League.

Palace might have grabbed themselves a lifeline having been 2-0 behind when James McArthur headed in, only for his effort to be ruled offside despite replays suggesting that the goal should have stood.

"We worked so hard at the Etihad. Two goals down and you score a good goal like that, it knocks you. I don't know why top class officials get it wrong. It wasn't even close. It was a disgraceful decision," said Warnock, according to BBC Sport.

"The linesman will be disappointed when he sees it. It's not hard to look across and see it. We might have lost 5-1 - I can't tell you that, but at 2-1 the crowd might have been nervous.

"We worked so hard all week - it's nothing to do with us that the goal was chalked off."

Palace currently sit in 17th spot in the Premier League table.
