Andre Villas-Boas criticises the performance of referee Chris Foy during his side's 1-0 loss at Queens Park Rangers this afternoon.

Chelsea manager Andre Villas-Boas has slammed the performance of referee Chris Foy during his side's 1-0 loss at Queens Park Rangers this afternoon.

Foy sent off Chelsea duo Jose Bosingwa and Didier Drobga, while the official also turned down several penalty appeals from the visitors.

After the match at Loftus Road, Villas-Boas was not only critical of Foy, but also gave a negative verdict on previous referees.

"I think the referee was not good," Villas-Boas told Sky Sports News. "It is not the first time that has happened to us but I don't want to believe there is a pattern in the referees that we are getting.

"It is the third time in a row that the referee has directly influenced the result for us.

"We are not happy with this."

Meanwhile, QPR boss Neil Warnock has praised Foy's performance during the match.

The loss means that the Blues failed to capitalise on Manchester United's heavy defeat earlier today and remain third in the Premier League.
