    He did have the psycho look about him like. I thought he was going to kill Dallas that night he sent him off when the scum won the League at Parkhead.

    Yeah well they are all mental aren't they ?

    Bobo told me he wanted to play in goal and I wasn't about to argue with him.

    Boruc got his place up front purely on the back of this.

    He's no on pens though. That's Mick McCarthy.

    I've no idea why people keep putting Cha in with the rest of them. He'd be an absolute victim in that dressing room. Or simply the team clown.

    Actually that is a good point. I am beginning to feel a bit sorry for him but I'm afraid it is going to have to be sink or swim for him.

    I included him for purely tactical reasons. As I only have two defenders in the team ( and one of them is in goal) figured we needed two fullbacks who could get up and down the pitch.

    Di Canio

    Sutton


    Honourable mentions to: Gravesen, Bellamy, Broony, McAvennie (for the game against the Huns), McNamara (for giving Hateley a belt).

    Wee Jinky also got sent off 5 times while he was here. Given he was here for 14 years it's not much, but it's still 4 more than Cesar and more than most get :smiley-laughing002:

    Very few mentions of Bertie Auld, im pretty sure he once got a broken foot in a game from a bad tackle, think it was when he played for Birmingham but instead of going off he waited on the park until the guy that done it got the ball then done him back and broke the guys leg - actually think the player had to retire because of it or attempted a come back but never made it lol

    The midfielders available are such that Auld would be exceptionally hard to justify putting on to be quite honest

    Bertie Auld was a bit of a psycho actually...

    He once broke players legs in consecutive games, Davie Provan of Rangers then George Miller of Hearts in the next game. He also headbutted 6ft 2 Ron Yeats of Liverpool, who many thought was the hardest player in England at the time when he was playing for Birmingham and in another game headbutted two Fulham players, Johnny Haynes who is their greatest ever player and was the England captain at the time for spitting on him and then another 6ft 2 striker Maurice Cook who had ran over to him after he headbutted Haynes. In a friendly between Hibs and Middlesborough, Nobby Stiles broke Bertie's collar bone, but Auld refused to come off, got his revenge on Stiles who had to be stretchered off and never played for Middlesborough again 10 minutes later and then went off. He also got sent off in Di Stefano's testimonial and took a few swipes at a Racing Club player and ran and pushed him and was sent off in the World Club Championship but he refused to leave the park.

    I knew of the Birmingham leg break, and obviously the game against Racing club there was a few of our players sent off that game and ready to scrap. Didn't know of the headbutt though. Lennon out, Auld in then? :56::50:
