Google URL Removal Tool and robots.txt?
Hi, I've encountered a strange thing. On it's webmasters help google say that it supports using of "*" and "$" symbols in robots.txt but google removal tool reports an error when I try to remove some urls using robots.txt and use "*" in it. Does anybody else experienced that?

I wasn't talking about that one...

Here is listing of the robots.txt I'm using on the site I was talking about:
Code:
User-agent: *
Disallow: /*sh=avail

...Additionally, Google has introduced increased flexibility to the robots.txt file standard through the use asterisks. Disallow patterns may include "*" to match any sequence of characters, and patterns may end in "$" to indicate the end of a name.
