Red Card record by Pratt

December 29, 2008—

Chippenham Town's David Pratt set a new record in his side's recent 2-1 defeat at Bashley, he was dismissed by the referee after just three seconds.

As the official signalled the start of the match, Pratt lunged forward at Bashley midfielder Chris Knowles and immediately received his marching orders from referee Justin Amey.

The previous record holder, Bologna's Giuseppe Lorenzo, will probably be happy to have had his record, which was a lengthy 10 seconds, broken. It will likely be very difficult for Pratt to pass on this dubious honour anytime soon.
