Rickie Lambert's penalty in first-half stoppage time - following Gianluca Havern's handball - looked like it was going to be enough to give Saints their first win of the season.[LNB]But they were pegged back in the 93rd minute when Neal Trotman was adjudged to have handled in the box and Carl Baker dispatched the resulting spot-kick.[LNB]"I just feel for the players because they put a fantastic effort in," said Pardew[LNB]"I'm struggling to remember a referee who has been as bad as him. The Southampton fans who were here will be going away feeling sick.[LNB]"You can see by the players' reaction at the end. I had to go and get them off him.[LNB]"All I can do is worry about my team and we're disheartened. We're going home so disappointed because we should have three points. We really have been robbed here. But you couldn't fault us, I thought we were brilliant."[LNB][LNB]
