Charlton manager Nathan Jones was left bemused by the decision to strike off Tyreece Campbell's goal in their 0-0 draw against QPR, saying that the linesman "looked at me like I'd volleyed his cat."
The Addicks thought they had broken the deadlock in the 39th minute through the Jamaica international but it was flagged for offside.
It was a derby with minimal scoring chances -- Arthur Okonkwo made one big save from QPR winger Paul Smyth just after the hour mark when Tyler Bindon lost possession.
"We scored the only goal of the game," Jones told Sky Sports after the game. "I am sick of it. On the weekend, I had to put up with a performance from an individual that was beyond the realm of belief.
"Tonight, he had one decision to make and he gave offside. The goal is a great goal and a great counter-attack. It is onside and has cost us three points. The arrogance of the linesman is mental. He has looked at me like I have volleyed his cat."
Both sides were looking to bounce back from their first league losses of the season at the weekend.
"It's not unlucky [that the goal doesn't stand] it's just poor play again [by the officials]," said Jones. "It frustrates you because the Championship is fine margins.
"This has been a really good possession team against a really good defensive team and we feel just hard done by.
"We needed to keep the ball better, we probably had spells at the end of each half where we came strong.

"We realise every game is tough but we did our job today. We felt at the weekend we did our job for about 15 or 16 minutes and then were on the end of a difficult decision. We have been on the end of some decisions over the last four days that have cost us - cost us big. I'm proud of my team. They showed real character and defended well. We gave the ball away too easily and we know that.
"The schedule is crazy -- we play Wednesday night and then Saturday morning. There must be more injuries in the Championship than any league in the world, it is like a battlefield at the moment. I'm talking about everyone. Managers are complaining but no-one cares.
"I don't know who it is suiting. It's not conducive to the best football because nobody has got their best team out."
