“ROBBED BLIND!” McKenna DROPS BOMBSHELL as Ref Chiefs ADMIT Leicester Howler—But Was It Part of a Sinister Pattern? The Tractor Boys boss reveals the Foxes got away with MURDER, and that’s not the only scandalous decision that left fans FUMING!

Leicester City appear to have had the rub of the green with a couple of game-changing calls at Portman Road on Saturday—and now the referees’ bosses have been forced into a humiliating climbdown.

The Foxes seemingly escaped justice not once, but twice during the tempestuous 1-1 draw with Ipswich Town.

That’s according to furious Tractor Boys chief Kieran McKenna, who reveals the referees’ organisation PGMOL have been in touch to confess the contentious decision not to penalise Hamza Choudhury for shoving Cedric Kipre to the turf late in the game was a blunder.

But in a revelation that will add fuel to the fire, McKenna exposed that the incident in stoppage time wasn’t the only verdict that tilted the game in the visitors’ favour.

Speaking ahead of Tuesday’s trip to Stoke City, a still-seething McKenna lifted the lid on the PGMOL’s private apology, telling the EADT: “Martyn (Pert, assistant manager) spoke to Kevin Friend yesterday, who sort of conducts that at this level. Yes, there’s full admission that there should have been two penalties, one on Anis (Mehmeti) and certainly the one at the end.

“Everyone was disappointed with the officials that it wasn’t given. It doesn’t change anything now though. There’s no time to dwell. We just move on now quickly to Stoke.

“I’ll try and stay pragmatic about it and control what we can control. As I’ve said before, I’m not the first one to be shouting for VAR. So, if you’re not in that camp, then don’t be hypocritical and be screaming for every decision.

“But there’s some that really, really disappoint you beyond what was in the norm of anyone being able to make a mistake and it being a hard job. I think that was certainly one of them – it’s at such a pivotal point in the game and was not a particularly difficult decision. So it was more disappointing than most.”

McKenna was far less measured immediately after the final whistle when he launched a scathing attack on referee John Busby. “It’s crazy for me that it’s not given. It couldn’t be any more clear, there’s nowhere else you can look.

“Dara [O’Shea] puts an incredible ball into the six-yard box, that’s the only place that all the officials have to look and Cedric gets fouled in every way you can get fouled.”

Foxes caretaker Gary Rowett attempted to downplay the storm, particularly the ugly flashpoint involving Choudhury, suggesting it was just typical box chaos: “At that stage of the game, it’s such a huge call to give. There’s so much pushing and pulling in the box. Every time they had a corner we were getting players held at the back post to open up the space.”
