Ebbsfleet United manager Josh Wright reacts to 4-2 National League defeat at Wealdstone

Ebbsfleet manager Josh Wright admitted he’s “sick and tired” of being on the wrong end of refereeing decisions.

The Fleet lost 4-2 at Wealdstone in the National League on Saturday but, having taken the lead through Franklin Domi, were pegged back in the first half with a poor penalty call from referee Dale Baines.

Former Ebbsfleet forward Alex Reid slipped in the box but the official somehow pointed to the penalty spot.

“I'm sick and tired of standing here or going home with decisions like we've seen today,” said Wright.

“It's not a decision that's in the middle of the pitch or a free-kick that might lead to a goal, it's big, big decisions.

“It’s a penalty today that we can all see clear as day that the boy slips.

“I didn't even think about anything with a foul. I just heard a whistle go and I was like, what's happened there?

“How they've given a penalty for that, bearing in mind we're standing 40 metres away, the main man who has to give that decision is standing two metres away.

“It hurts, but I'm sick to death of it, decisions like that.”

Wright was also unhappy that an elbow on Toby Edser was punished by just a yellow card while Ebbsfleet appeals when Anthony Stewart was hauled down in the box fell on deaf ears.

“There's a couple of decisions in the middle of the park,” added the Fleet boss. “Elbows, you don't get booked for an elbow. You get a red card for an elbow.

“Penalty for us after what's never a penalty for them. We don't get a decision on Stewie when he's gripping him around the neck, when he's trying to go for the back stick. We can all see that there's a big shout for a penalty, a lot more than obviously what they've been given for but do we get it? Of course we don't.

“It's frustrating. It hurts because
