Preston caretaker boss David Unsworth was fuming after Keith Treacy was booked for diving when it appeared he was fouled by Paddy McCarthy.
"It's an absolute stonewall penalty and came at a time when it could have changed the course of the game," he said.
"We could have gone above Palace if we won and it's tough when you get a decision like that.
"We're devastated because it's happening far too often. The referee has listened to the crowd. He's been bullied by the crowd."
Preston coach Jamie Hoyland was sent to the stands for protesting to the referee after the winner.
Unsworth, Treacy, Hoyland all have a pretty strong Blades connection. No wonder they didn't get a pen.
