Fuming Brentford boss Thomas Frank is expecting an apology from referees\u2019 chief Howard Webb after seeing his side slip to a controversial Premier League defeat at Newcastle.<\/p>\n

The Bees went down 1-0 at St James\u2019 Park on Saturday evening after Callum Wilson converted a second-half penalty awarded for a foul by keeper Mark Flekken on Anthony Gordon.<\/p>\n

Frank said: \u201cIt\u2019s so rare that I complain about it because it\u2019s human beings who make mistakes and we all make mistakes so that happens. But it\u2019s extra frustrating when we do so many things right and lose because of that.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe just got told four weeks ago when Kevin Schade went through against Tottenham, where the keeper took him out, that no, he pulled out before, so it can\u2019t be a penalty. Mark pulled out before, now a penalty.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not the ref who has given it but the linesman, and he needs to be absolutely bang-on, 100 per cent sure if you want to decide an even game between two teams that gave each other a fantastic game, in fact.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat means that VAR have checked, but can\u2019t do anything because it\u2019s not a clear and obvious failure. I\u2019m pretty sure that Howard Webb will come back to us and say \u2018Sorry, we made a mistake\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n

The penalty \u2013 one of two awarded by Craig Pawson, although the second was rescinded after he was advised to review it \u2013 came minutes after Wilson had seen a \u201cgoal\u201d disallowed for a foul on Flekken.<\/p>\n

The England striker dispatched his 64th-minute spot-kick with supreme confidence to claim his 14th goal in his last 17 league appearances in the final game before Newcastle launch their Champions League campaign at AC Milan on Tuesday evening.<\/p>\n

Wilson put pen to paper on a one-year contract extension on Friday and Howe, who first signed him for Bournemouth in July 2014, has seen him grow during the intervening period.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cHe\u2019s gone from, when I first signed him, a Championship player to now an international, a Premier League player, a Champions League player.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut his character is still the same. He laughs, he jokes, he\u2019s positive, he\u2019s kind. He\u2019s a really good team-mate, he\u2019s a parent and he\u2019s a really good father to his kids and he\u2019s a husband, so a lot has changed in his life, but I think the general character around the person is exactly the same.\u201d<\/p>\n

Howe, who confirmed that Brazilian midfielder Joelinton will miss the trip to San Siro with a recurrence of a knee injury which will keep him out for several weeks, was delighted to see his team end its three-game losing streak.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cIt was a massive win for us, we needed it. I don\u2019t think it was us at our free-flowing best, but there was a lot to like about the resilience, the defensive mindset, the work rate, the commitment.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not always going to be an open, attractive game and today it probably wasn\u2019t. Brentford made it very difficult for us, but we certainly defended very well and it was great to see us keep a clean sheet.\u201d<\/p>\n
