I thought Kirkland refereed the game very well tonight

Whilst it's frustrating when teams waste time it's up to us to break them down. Kirkland (nearly) did what he's paid fto do - keep the ball out of the net for 90 minutes.

There are loads of managers in the Championship who know how to do a job and kill a match - McCarthy and Jones to name two (I thought Nigel Clough and Freedman were two others).

Oscar and his coaching team (except N Jones) have little experience of Championship football and it's showing.

The time wasting tonight was still nothing compared to Millwall.

You didn't think he had a reason to be aggrieved after battling past a player who was fouling him, only for the free kick to go the other way? Understandably very frustrated at that stage of the game.

Sorry but there's no excuse of for that card.
It's a banker, the ref has no choice, guaranteed yellow.

By your logic Buckley should have been booked too.

It was, but he didn't jog half the length of the pitch to involve himself in a situation which had nothing to do with him and which had already been given in his team's favour.

That it was, but it also took time off the clock, so not all bad (at the time).

Kirkland, Johnson and Llera all acted like massive twats the whole match. Unfortunately the midget referee was far too weak to do anything about it.

Pulling the 'injured' centre half back onto the pitch was pretty low.

I can understand his frustration with the ref. First time I have ever witnessed a player being fouled by the ball in the penalty area and getting a free kick just as Buckley was about to run at the keeper. Definitely little man syndrome.

I didn't realise last night that was Barnes third yellow.
Fingers crossed he does feel aggrieved 2 more times in the up and coming weeks.

It was a stupid booking that could have bigger implications.

Barnes got booked for - BOUNCING THE BALL!!!! Would say that is pretty stupid. From the ref if course.
Yeah that's all he did, just like when playing with his kid.

Don't be so stooopid.

Absolutely this, the last remaining so called striker, spiking the ball American Football style in yet another childish tantrum, you just keep collecting those cards Ashley.
