Both managers were angry with the match officials after Blackburn's 2-2 draw with West Brom.
Blackburn boss Paul Ince slammed referee Mike Jones for sending off striker Benni McCarthy for two "nothing incidents" at West Brom and risked controversy by claiming: "It is not a game for women."
McCarthy put Blackburn ahead from the penalty spot in the 2-2 draw but was then red-carded for a challenge on Jonathan Greening and an alleged handball near the half-way line.
Even West Brom manager Tony Mowbray insisted McCarthy's dismissal was unjustified as he also launched an attacked on Cheshire official Jones' overall performance.
West Brom hit back to lead 2-1 through goals from Roman Bednar and Ishmael Miller before Keith Andrews rescued a point for Rovers with a last-gasp strike.
Ince said: "The sending-off just ruins the game. After the penalty for us, the referee gave West Brom everything.
"Every free-kick just went straight to West Brom so, whether he felt he made a bad decision, I don't know. Everything seemed to go their way.
"The tackle from Benni for the first offence, there was no malice in it. He has gone for the ball. The second one, the ball has hit the top of his shoulder.
"He is not gaining an advantage, he is not stopping the opposition from scoring a goal. The referee couldn't wait to get the card out of his pocket. It was harsh and ruined the game to be fair.
"The game is hard enough at the moment. The Premier League is a physical league, it is fast and furious, and people are going to make tackles.
"Give red cards for dangerous and malicious tackles where the studs are up, fair enough. It is not a game for women.
"The two reasons McCarthy got sent off for are for nothing incidents and referees have got to be a bit more stronger than that."
Ince also conceded Rovers had been fortunate to be awarded the penalty after a challenge by Ryan Donk on Blackburn striker Jason Roberts.
He said: "I was a bit surprised when the ref gave it. Nine times out of 10 people just let it go. It was a bit harsh on West Brom. I've got to be totally honest."
A fuming Mowbray said: "You prepare all week and then find yourself a goal down from a decision you never see given on a football ground.
"The cameras might show there is a pull or a tug but you don't give penalties for things like that in football. Refs do not give decisions like that. It bewildered me.
"In the real world, you don't get them given. If you want 7-7 games for all those decisions given in a game, that is what you are going to have. It is disappointing.
"It was also never a sending-off in a million years. Never in a million years. I don't think there is any room for that. This is the Premier League and you've got decisions like that spoiling football matches.
"I would suggest that McCarthy probably got pushed and I was expecting a free-kick against my player (Ryan Donk) not handball and a sending-off."
Mowbray insisted: "It feels like two points lost. Over the 90 minutes we did enough to win the game and yet disappointing defending at the death allowed them to sneak a point.
"We have been there before this season. I don't think we are getting that bit of fortune at the moment but there are enough good players here."
Ince said: "We should have won at Villa in midweek after being the better side. If we had gone in at half-time today winning 1-0 with 11 men, we would have come out and won the game.
"At the end we showed great spirit and character to nick something at the end. We've done it before, scoring late against Everton, Villa and Middlesbrough.
"We've got a never-say-die attitude and I'm proud of the way they played in the face of some poor refereeing decisions."
