Brighton's Ashley Barnes charged by the FA for allegedly tripping referee Nigel Miller It is alleged that Barnes's behaviour in relation to the match official, for which the player was dismissed for violent conduct towards the end of the game, constituted an offence whereby the standard punishment that would otherwise apply was clearly insufficient. Barnes has been given until 6pm tomorrow to respond. Speaking immediately after the match - and before reviewing video evidence - Brighton manager Gus Poyet said: "I would like to see it. Before I talk to him I'm going to have a look because if he's done something to the referee...let's wait and see. My way of managing this is I prefer the player to calm down because if you go to the dressing room and you ask them straight away then they will put their excuse in there and blame somebody else.
