Barnet boss Paul Fairclough has vowed to address disciplinary problems in his side after the nine-man Bees lost 2-1 to Accrington Stanley at the weekend.
Barnet had both Liam Hatch and Barry Cogan red-carded by referee Dean Whitestone in a controversial second half and Accrington exploited their numerical advantage to scoop maximum points.
"We have to look at the discipline side of our game. We've had a player that used an elbow and that is unacceptable," Fairclough said.
"Then we've had another player who has been sent off because he has made a reckless challenge.
"I'm annoyed because he got booked for verbals in the first place. You can't defend someone who gets booked for dissent and we had three for it.
"Even though I was mystified by some of the referee's decisions, I thought he was left with no choice with both red cards.
"There were very few plusses to come out of the game and I still don't know how I'm going to solve our discipline problems."
