Chris Davies and James Morrison disagree on key decisions after Birmingham City beat West Brom

Birmingham City manager Chris Davies and West Bromwich Albion's Morrison disagreed over key refereeing decisions following Birmingham's 1-0 win on Saturday. August Priske scored the game's decisive goal from a first-half penalty awarded after Nat Phillips pulled his shirt. Morrison argued there was insufficient contact to warrant the spot-kick and criticized referee Gavin Ward's overall handling of the match.

In contrast, Davies claimed Birmingham City should have been awarded further penalties for challenges on Patrick Roberts and Alex Cochrane. Davies also expressed surprise that dangerous tackles on Cochrane went unpunished, though he noted the missed decisions ultimately did not cost his side the victory.
