I know I'm watching too much crap on tv but, on last nights Pointless, the final question was which Premier league sides had a player sent off. I went for Swindon, Oldham and Bradford, with the first two being correct but the third was Coventry apparently and not Bradford. I saw about 75% of the games but can't remember anyone being sent off for us, despite the presence of Kilcline.
Who was, or were, the guilt party or parties?

I think from memory Mutch got sent off at Goodison Park when we lost 6-2.

Thanks for that. My advice to you all would be don't get old as I was at both those games but have no recollection of the sendings off. I do recall that the Everton game was Mike Walkers first game as manager at Goodison and I was televised on MOTD as, when we scored one of our two, I raised a fist behind the goal but below the cider ad.
Thanks for input.

Just thinking about that QPR game still gives me palpitations. After Wembley earlier that year, I can't ever remember feeling so tense at a game. The sending off & then Scott's goal set us up for another hour of absolutely bricking it. Don't think I even stopped at half time. We probably knew, even then, that staying up was very unlikely but, nevertheless, getting that first Prem Prem League win was massive. What a night that was.

QPR: The only team not to beat us in the Premier League!

Ipswich have more than made up for it since..... we've played them 8 times, lost the lot. Goals for 4 Goals against 25. If we do get back to something like Div 3 football... that's a record I'd like to improve.
