ROSSENDALE United boss Derek Egan is demanding better officialdom in the UniBond League following last weekend's 2-2 draw against rivals Clitheroe.
The Stags played the vast majority of the match with 10 men after seeing Tom Clarkson sent off for two yellow cards in quick succession in the first-half at Dark Lane.
Egan admits he was "simply gobsmacked" by the dismissal and said the referee failed to show any kind of consistency.

"It was very strange indeed," said Egan, whose side travel to rock-bottom Radcliffe tomorrow.
"He booked Tom twice for two simple fouls, but then ignores all the other fouls from Clitheroe. There was nothing malicious, but they were the same sort of fouls.
"I scratch my head sometimes with the referees and linesman in this league.
"It's not just a lack of consistency from game to game, but a lack of consistency throughout the 90 minutes of games."
