The Swansea City goalkeeper looked to have secured the 20th clean sheet of his season against their promotion chasing hosts before a mis-judgement from a stoppage time corner handed Luke Chambers the easiest of chances to head Forest to victory.<\/p>\n
But De Vries was refusing to feel sorry for himself over a rare mistake in a season of consistency and told the Western Mail “It’s just a ball that you want to get really aggressive with <\/p>\n
“I got my fist to it but I didn’t make a proper contact and then the guy heads it in at the second post.<\/p>\n
“You’re just real gutted because that maybe sums up the day.”<\/p>\n
Dorus though was also keen to add his words to those of team mates and management when he looked at two key refereweing decisions that ultimately cost the Swans victory <\/p>\n
“They had the better chances in the first half and they could have been 1-0 up, but you’re still 0-0 towards the end of the game and I thought we deserved a point. To give it away like that is hard to take because all the key points have gone against us.<\/p>\n
“The referee is a big influence in the game and he shouldn’t be that. Everybody in our dressing room is gutted by those decisions going against us.<\/p>\n
“It is a clear penalty and if he gives it and sends the defender off then it is three points away from home."<\/p>\n
And for the move leading up to the corner? “He (Blackstock) might not have touched it but he was interfering with play,”' he said. <\/p>\n
“The linesman doesn’t see it, the referee doesn’t react to it – and again it’s a costly mistake.<\/p>\n
“But then the referee gave them so many soft fouls which were lot a lighter than the penalty.<\/p>\n
“There were a few times when the centre-half was hanging around Shefki on his neck and pulling him down, but we didn’t get the decision.”<\/p>\n
