Hull boss Rosenior seethes at touchline ban
- Published
Hull City head coach Liam Rosenior wants a change in the rules after having to watch his team's crucial Championship win at Coventry City from the stands on Wednesday.
Rosenior picked up his third caution of the season at Watford on Saturday, leading to a touchline ban.
However, he is appealing for "common sense" from the authorities after apparently being exonerated in the aftermath of the 0-0 draw.
鈥淎 report came from the head of the referees association saying I should not have been booked, but there is no right of appeal,鈥 he told 91热爆 Radio Humberside.
Hull鈥檚 play-off hopes would have all but ended had they not won at the CBS Arena on Wednesday.
鈥淚 don鈥檛 know what I am supposed to do. I don鈥檛 get to stand with my team in a game where, if we don鈥檛 win, our aims for the season, everything we鈥檝e put in, nine months of hard work [are over]," Rosenior said.
鈥淚鈥檓 seething. I am really disappointed. I have spoken to the powers that be about it.鈥

Rosenior was cautioned by referee Ben Toner during the second half at Vicarage Road after Hull鈥檚 appeals for a second penalty kick of the game were dismissed.
鈥淚 got a clear report saying I shouldn鈥檛 have been booked but, because it is a yellow card and not a red card, like for a player, you can鈥檛 appeal it. I am just asking for common sense,鈥 he said.
鈥淚f I deserved something or act in an improper way [I鈥檇 accept the punishment]. I have already been banned away at QPR and I fought against that because I thought it wasn鈥檛 right, how that was handled.
鈥淚 don鈥檛 want to get into more trouble, but I shouldn鈥檛 be in trouble in the first place. I am just really disappointed I don鈥檛 get to be on the touchline with my team in a massive game for the club.鈥
