Tottenham goalkeeper Paul Robinson insists Reading's opening goal in the 2-2 draw in the FA Cup on Saturday should not have stood.Robinson is getting used to being under scrutiny - but the Spurs shot-stopper believes match officials should be in the spotlight after he was blamed for Stephen Hunt's goal after 25 minutes at White Hart Lane.

Robinson caught Hunt's free-kick but was unable to prevent himself moving backwards over the goal-line, and referee Mark Clattenburg awarded a goal after his assistant flagged.

Tottenham went on to salvage a draw in the third-round tie but, with Fabio Capello starting work as England boss this week, it was not good timing for Robinson, who has been guilty of high-profile errors this season but has also shown glimpses of being back in form.

"I am used to it now," said Robinson on the scrutiny he is under. "It's not nice, it's not pleasant and I don't like it because at times it's personal.

"But against Reading it's harsh because I have seen it so many times and still I don't believe it's a goal."

He added: "My form recently has been good. Other than Reading I felt good, strong and it's just one of those things.

"Things just seem not to be going my way at the moment. It just seems to be the life and times of Paul Robinson at the minute. But on another day they won't give it."

The goal reopened the debate over goal-line technology.

"For me personally I have been in favour of video replays for some time now," Robinson said. "For a split second or 30 seconds or whatever it would have taken you could have sorted that out."

With Saturday's FA Cup clash finishing 2-2, the opener did not cost Spurs the match, although that was little consolation to Robinson.

"You look at it and it's not a goal," he said.

"I just cannot see how you could possibly give a goal.

"I have seen it on the TV eight or nine times and there is no one angle where you could clearly say 'yes it's in'."
