Four-red footballer banned for two years:banana:

A footballer who got red-carded four times in one match has been banned for two years.

Ricky Broadley of Mountain Rangers received the cards in the course of a Caernarfon district league cup match against Penrhyndeudraeth.

The 29-year-old was sent off for stamping on an opponent in the course of a 64th minute brawl on the pitch as his side trailed 2-0. He went on to receive further red cards for first arguing with the referee, then throwing water over him, and finally confronting him angrily in the clubhouse following the match.

Broadley, a former Bangor City striker, was also hit with a £75 fine by the North Wales Coast FA.

It is not the first time he has been in hot water with footballing authorities: Broadley has previously been banned for life from playing Sunday League football, and he was lucky to escape the same sanction this time around.

The player - who had received one red and three yellow cards in his previous 10 matches with Mountain Rangers - claimed he had been punched and put in a headlock before the stamping incident. His club had already confirmed that he will not be playing for them again.

Referee John Owen sent off three other players during the match, which finished 3-0 to Penrhyndeudraeth.

There's a report in today's Scottish papers of a player in the borders league getting red carded 6 times in the one game, banned for 2 yrs.
Not surprising he's hung up his boots.
