Wolves defender Hill: Blackburn's Roberts elbowed me

Wolves defender Matt Hill says Blackburn Rovers striker Jason Roberts was lucky not to see red in Saturday's defeat.

"I definitely copped an elbow but you have to take it on the chin - or rather the cheekbone," he said.

"Me and Jason had a good tussle and I've got nothing against him. If that had been seen, it would have been a red card, but that didn't happen and I'm not going to say anything else.

"You have to take those knocks from him and I enjoyed the physical battle - we were just on the wrong end of it, unfortunately."
