What do you consider to be the best sending off offence you have seen? Don't care if it was a Town game just want some funny, gory, or otherwise worthwhile tales of red cards.
To kick it off I'm going to go with a Town vs. Huddersfield game in which Dean Gorre was sure a throw in should have been given to Huddersfield, needles to say the officials felt otherwise.
Gorre became increasingly incensed and threw a wobbly the size you'd imagine Mick the Greek might do when anybody may dare question his judgement or intent.
Initially he was shown a yellow card and ushered away, this was not to be all from the now Dutch Masters footballer, he refused to accept this decision and again began throwing all the toys in Woolworths out of his pram, referee, God bless him put him out of his misery and issued a second yellow.
At the time I really could not understand this tantrum given that it was only a throw in, if I'm honest I still can't but damn it was funny.
I know it's not the best of all time or owt, but hey entertaining none the less.

Hello KT! Long time no post, hope you're ok!
Has to be Graham "3 yellow cards" Poll for me.
Probably not the best but a stupid mistake that amused me no end!

Personally seeing Sicknote Anderton beig sent of for dissent for Bournemouth last season was funny. I always enjoy the dissent red card due to it normally being for throwing a proper wobbly.
Windass last season was good too - just to see him denying it after launching a two footed throat high lunge and connecting.

Yes Lady, not posting too much these days, I've lost a little motivation to do so but I think I'll keep my hand in occasionally.

One I never knew why was David Kerslake at Leicester in the 90-91 season.
He must have got sent off in the first 90 seconds and I couldn't see why and never found out. Not being a dirty player it surprised me; so if anyone was there and knows please tell me.
Going off the subject but Bloody Leicester; we were 2-0 up and they got their equalizer in the 94th minute. Around that time we never got anything at Leicester; that game was typical of our luck at Filbert St then.

On the subject of Leicester who incidentally we haven't played for a while now, Joachim's red card when Colin had him by the throat, and he was flailing away gay little punches, but couldn't reach, was funny as fuck.

Another one which springs to mind was Scott Leitch getting carded v I think Bradford City......he went in for a fifty fifty with Big Dave (Darren Moore).....Leitch ended up not unsurprisingly in a crumpled heap. From my spot in the TE, I assumed that Big Dave had gone over the top, as the ref ran up to brandish the red, but it was for Leitch, who had tried but failed to clog Moore.

I thought "tea towel" getting sent off at the CG was amusing, mostly because it was probably a result of the TE winding him up!
The most bizarre would have to be when Danson sent off Migs for, erm, well, nothing, against luton taht time at the CG

Yes, you are a player who sits on the bench for a bottom division team who are in the bottom half, not pele. I have seen it all when those player do things like that

Beauchamp getting sent off for two yellows was funny, he hardly ever made two tackles let alone two in one match!! Bobby Barnes for flashing a V-sign at a linesman against WBA, and he only meant he had been fouled twice!!!

Funniest for me was Vinnie Jones' World Record Red Card. I can't find it on youtube, but i know it was about 15 seconds.
The opposition Kicks off, Vinnie lunges, 2 footed at the person receiving the ball from kick off. Must've been less then 15 seconds, but i remeber that being hilarious.
