That Mansfield game when two were sent off from both sides.
Blissett and Gayle sent off at Torquay.
The Rochdale game in 1975 before the away FA Cup tie at Wimbledon, there was three players sent off, pretty sure two were Bees, one was Terry Johnson.

I'm going to guess at 5 times, safe in the knowledge that it'll piss off @rebus and @wanderer paul off if I guess right without all their boring research

:owusu:



(Meant in jest, the research is as brilliant as this season has been, thank you both, especially Paul where those who served and died are concerned).
 

Nine Men

Going down to 9 men after two players sent off are;

(can you fill in the gaps?!! and Players?!)

1975-76 Home Rochdale - Sweetzer and Johnson
1987-88 Home Mansfield - Lee and Bates
1990-91 Away Tranmere - Cash and Bates
1991-92 Away Torquay - Blissett (elbow into Uzzell) and Gayle
1993-94 Away Burnley - Dearden and Statham.
1995-96 Away Bristol Rovers - Grainger and Bates.
2002-03 Away CREWE ALEX. - Marshall and Fullerton.
2006-07 Away Torquay United - Partridge and Wilson.
2012-13 Away Sheff United - Craig and Donaldson

Going down to 9 men because of sending off/s and injuries, I haven't a clue!!

2021/22 Home Leeds - Canos (s/o) and Ajer (injured).

I knew the Torquay and Sheffield Utd ones. I wasn't at either of those games. Not sure I've witnessed one - The infamous Swindon game that helped relegate us was notable for them playing with nine men for the majority of the game.

That 1975/6 would have been Rochdale with Gordon Sweetzer sent off for a second booking and Terry Johnson for an altercation with the Dale keeper who also got sent off.

I think we had two sent off at Yeovil a few years ago, 2008ish. Some proper non-entity players too; David something?

Also I have a feeling we had two sent off at Twerton Park in the 90s?

Didn’t we go down to 9 in the 2-2 game at Sheffield United (the one rearranged after the first was snowed off)?

That brings back memories, there was a massive dump of snow overnight. We only live about an hour away from Sheffield and I remember deciding there was way too much snow to drive and instead spent about half an hour walking 100 yards to the bus stop before sacking it off and walking home again!!!

Have a vague memory of a very long away trip and being down to 9 men.. Hull? (might have been Tranmere...)

I think the 2006-07 was Yeovil (David Partidge? & Che Wilson??) 93-94 might have been Burnley. I think it was Dearden & Grainger or Statham
