2-1 to the referee.

Simple as that. (Barton didn't help)

Not buying that. 10 men can still defend. We often play with 1 striker anyway. Ref didn't help, but didn't Wolves shut Arsenal out with 10 men recently? It can be done.

Im pished that the ref left morison un marked in the box for the winner

I'm not talking about the sending off at all, that was barton. That ref might as well have been wearing a green shirt. How many decisions did they get? How many times were our players taken out and fouled with no consequences?

Sorry - misunderstood your post.

The ref was their most influential player, he certainly dictated the outcome of today's game when he sent off Barton.
We had a decent second half, but I felt we let Norwich come on to us far too many times.
Instead of busting a gut trying to win the ball, we seemed content to sit back and wait for Norwich to kindly give us the ball.
That made the difference between having a stupendous second half, or a decent one.
