Poyet in referee rage

Portsmouth cruised past Leeds with a Noe Pamarot double and a first goal for David Nugent - prompting Leeds assistant manager Gus Poyet to launch an astonishing attack on referee Andy D'Urso.

Former Chelsea player Poyet said: "I never want to see him again and I certainly don't want him refereeing our games. He's not good enough. He can't forget things he has done to (Leeds manager) Dennis (Wise) and me as players.

"We should have had a penalty in the first half but we had no doubts we wouldn't get one. It's personal now. If we have him, we don't win."

Pamarot broke the deadlock when he diverted in a Pedro Mendes shot on 43 minutes then completed a double on 80 minutes when he headed in Gary O'Neil's corner.

Nugent broke his scoring duck when he slid in a cross from John Utaka.

But it seems his future at Pompey is still not certain.

Boss Harry Redknapp said: "When you want to raise money, sometimes you have to sell someone you don't want to. It could be David but it could be anyone here. We need a striker who can score 15-20 goals a season."
