A VIDEO of Sean Dyche receiving a red card has gone viral, leaving fans stunned.
Before becoming a manager, Dyche played as a centre-back for several EFL clubs.
He kicked off his professional career at Chesterfield and went on to play for Bristol City, Luton Town, Millwall, Watford and Northampton.
But during his penultimate season he was shown a straight red card for a horrific tackle.
While playing for Northampton in a League Two match against Notts County, Dyche lunged in on Steve Scoffham and nearly broke his leg.
Despite going down to 10 men, Northampton went on to win 2-0.
