Consoling myself with the fact that I hardly ever complain about referees in my match reports I've penned the following blues style tribute to possibly the worst referee in the world.
The Barry Knight Blues
I got to the ground, man that place was full,
We'd beat the Wolves this time, they've lost Stevie Bull,
So when Gazza crosses, Taylor scores with a flick,
But just look at Barry, he's given a Wolves free kick.
I got the Barry Knight blues
I got the Barry Knight blues
Now just 2 minutes later, and Wolves 5 yards offside,
He looks at the linesman, he's got no place to hide,
With his flag of yellow, and wavy hair brown,
He looks back at Barry, and keeps his little flag down.
I got the Barry Knight blues
I got the Barry Knight blues
This great game of soccer, is governed by rules,
But what can you do, when it's run by fools,
There were two sides playing, but he only saw gold,
His parents weren't married, and his head was bald.
I got the Barry Knight blues
I got the Barry Knight blues
So when West gets injured, Barry plays it hard,
No booking for Wolfie, but for West yellow card,
With the Wolves players acting, what does Barry do,
More yellow cards now, he's like Mr Magoo.
I got the Barry Knight blues
I got the Barry Knight blues
With a lucky deflection, Wolves make it two,
But celebratin' aint what he's s'pposed to do,
Just before halftime, they go and score three,
And bald headed Barry, just can't hide his glee.
I got the Barry Knight blues
I got the Barry Knight blues
No thanks to Barry, Ian Moore scores,
So lets start time wasting, man Barry bores,
With Burnley on top now, and fighting like men,
Barry can't stand it, now we're playing with ten.
I got the Barry Knight blues
I got the Barry Knight blues
Now DJ nabs one, he's made it 3-2,
Wolves look at Barry, what's he gonna do,
With a quick look over, he closes the door,
We've lost 10 minutes, but he'll only play four.
I got the Barry Knight blues
I got the Barry Knight blues
So the match is over, man Barry is proud,
But what's that noise from the Burnley crowd
They think he was cheating, and making a fuss,
Well he got a lift home, on the Wolves team bus.
I got the Barry Knight blues
I got the Barry Knight blues…
Yes, the race for the play offs is getting to me.
