Red Cards

When Sean Morrison was given a red card after 52 minutes of Saturday's defeat to Sheffield United, it was the tenth time a City player had been sent off during the last five seasons (2017/18 to present).

How many of the previous nine dismissals can you remember (player and opponents)?

(Incidentally, Morrison's red card on Saturday was the earliest in a game that a City player had been sent off since goalkeeper David Marshall was given his marching orders in the 41st minute of a 2-1 defeat at Rotherham back in September 2015.)

I’d have a guess at Marlon Pack but I’ve no idea when or against who

I'd say Harry Arter, but that would just be wishful thinking.

You're there. Just need the opponents.

Marlon Pack - a player so nondescript that nobody notices when he's been sent off.

He got sent off against City while playing for Fulham.

Yup, and he got heaps from the crowd which pleased me no end.

Was it Norwich last season or have I mixed it up with something else? Think we had just halved a 2-0 deficit and he got sent off for a second yellow.

Looking at that list, it seems that the majority of those are straight reds, rather than two yellows. Any idea if that's the case?

That's the one.

Yes, I think they were almost all straight reds.

During the same period (the last five seasons), City's opponents have had 11 men sent off. Interestingly, none last season - a campaign in which City had four sent off (Tomlin, Ralls, Pack and Vaulks).

Looking back at that Premier League season (18/19), City only had Ralls sent off at Spurs. Meanwhile, opposition teams had three players sent off. City only won one of those three games and that was thanks to a last-minute Sol Bamba goal against Brighton that shouldn't have stood.

Some reckon that offside goal Chelsea scored against us cost us relegation. They forget moments like the Bamba 'winner'.
