He should have got his facts right before gobbing off to the media.
I've had this argument all day with tunnel visioned bitters suffering from severe to hysterical (in both senses of the word) paranoia.
Fact is the referee did play over the alloted time...by 1 second!

Even so, both teams have just as much likelihood to score in that time. Having just scored themselves in the last minute City should have had momentum going into that stoppage time. I bet if you offered Hughes 7 minutes stoppage time after they'd just scored he would have bitten your hand off for it.
As it happened they didn't, and now they're bitching and complaining about it.
You play to the final whistle, I have no sympathy for them.
