Pearce won't blame ref for City's Cup exit

Stuart Pearce refused to play the blame game after Manchester City crashed out of the Carling Cup following a red card that should never have been.

City were leading League One Doncaster 1-0 in the first period of extra-time and ready to book their place in round three when Nedum Onuoha was sent off for sliding in on Rovers goalkeeper Andy Warrington.
