Ian Banks, 16 Dec 1989, Sent off while warming up to come on as a substitute.

Can anybody put flesh on that bare stat for me? What did he do?

(It's for a Lists Book I'm editing)

Thanks, w

 

If i remember rightly he was down the touchline and he bollocked a linesman about an offside decision that was/wasn't made. The linesman flagged, consulted with the ref and the ref showed him a red card, i guess for foul and abusive language towards an official.

 

bournemouth away - i was there. i can't remember what year though - approx 1988- 1991 i would guess.
We lost 2-1 & there was about 50 of us there.
As pointed out he slagged the linesman for there 2nd goal - dubious offside call.

thanks that's great. Was if definitely Bournemouth 2-1 Barnsley?

pretty certain it was 2-1. We scored fairly late on to give us a bit on excitement towards the end
