Andy Townsend sent off for foul and abusive language, 64 minutes.
Clive Allen sent off for foul and abusive language, 88 minutes.
A low-key scrappy first half gives way to high drama and fierce controversy as ref Martin upsets the opposition, for once. Chelsea with a big replay at Roker looming, have Andy Townsend sent off after 64 minutes, followed by sub Clive Allen in the last minute, both for foul language.
