Hull boss Bruce blames ref decisions for defeat

Hull City boss Steve Bruce says defeat at Swansea City came after two poor decisions.

Hull remain three points above the Barclays Premier League drop zone after losing 3-1 at the Liberty Stadium, but Tigers boss Bruce was upset with the nature of Swansea's second goal from Bafetimbi Gomis and the 53rd minute red card shown to Tigers midfielder David Meyler.

"We were nowhere near good enough in the first half but two big decisions have gone against us," Bruce said.

"Gomis' goal is a fantastic piece of individual skill but he is five yards offside.

"When the ball comes back into the box we've had a collision between two of our players because they are worried about Gomis' whereabouts."
