Not Barnes?
I felt he contributed a lot more than Buckley!

Barnes was definitely worthy of a 9 - he was excellent. Obviously he scored twice but his general holdup and link play was superb
Actually they gave 5 (9) Have another look.4, count them 4 players rated 9 this week

They all seem a bit harsh.

Some slightly odd ratings.
Barnes, Bridge, Calde and Hammond were definitely worth higher marks. And I also thought Upson was better than Greer.

They also gave the ref 8/10, which was surprising as he was fairly awful.

Buckley didn't deserve a 9. Even more anonymous than Barnes.

Really? I can't remember a single thing that he got wrong and the first thing Paul Ince did at the end of the game is walk onto the pitch and shake the ref's hand. The only questionable thing was the length of injury time, but that happens sometimes in maulings (come to think of it, that's probably why Ince wanted to thank him!)

Giving Barnes a 7 is a joke

They say he had sod all to do but Kuszczak actually made a terrific save at some point in the 2nd half - I think it may have been just after we conceded - and tipped a good strike around the post. If we had let in another at that point things may have become very edgy. 1 very good save may be all a keeper does in a match, however if he does it well he cannot be faulted for it.

And yet in their team of the week the only player selected was Spanish Dave.

What about the throw in near the end when he awarded it to Blackpool? The ref must have known the he got the decision wrong judging from the crowd's incredulous reaction.
Saying that, I thought the referee had a good game.

Hammond only got a six in a chimp a like contest and his diving header.
