Bring back Bertie ... (23 replies)

" Some impressive fisticuffs occurred back in 1963, pre-dating the advent of the red card, when St Andrews played host to a fiery encounter between Birmingham winger Bertie Auld and Fulham's Johnny Haynes. Chris Ferns takes up the story: "If memory serves, Haynes fouled Auld, who was legendary for his temper, and was promptly knocked out in retaliation. Auld then flattened another Fulham player who tried to intervene, rendering him unconscious as well. The upshot was that both Auld and Haynes were sent off, the latter via a stretcher."

Nicked from a Guardian article.
Just to prove Fulham haven't always had it all their own way against us.
