SUBSTITUTE'S RED CARDS
This is a list of players who came on as sub and were then sent off before the final whistle!

And of course Stan Collymore is on this list.

Back in 1984, Stan was returning after a two month layoff with a hamstring injury and made his comeback in a home game against Bolton when he came on in the 58th minute. It took him one minute and one touch to score with a screamer to put us 3-1 up before being sent off with a minute to go. He was the first sub in our history to be shown a red card, and he also scored what proved to be the winning goal in the only victory we've had after seeing a sub sent off.
