A question for all you Albion nerds of the older persuasion.
After reading the Albion v Arsenal program from their 1st Division debut, I read the above article, which included a mention of Peter Ward getting sent off in a friendly.
I cannot remember him ever getting sent off, whilst playing for the Albion competitively.
Perhaps anyone on here can remember either way? :thumbsup:

Got sent off playing against the East German national side in a pre-season tournament under Mullery!

This is what happens when strikers play too deep.

From Peter Ward's biography, "He Shot, He Scored" (page 98):-

I had been getting kicked about all over the pitch by this great big German goon. Just after half-time I had the ball and I goaded him, did a Georgie Best saying "Come on then" and knocked it past him. He took me out neck-high and I lost it. I pushed him and then kicked him in the nuts. The referee sent me off straight away.

After the tournament there was a big banquet and all the teams were there. Mullery told me that I should apologise to the guy that I'd kicked, but I said "No chance". That was the only time that I was ever sent off, playing for Brighton.
