Foul play: The naughty boys of League One this term revealed

Pompey had their fair share of bad boys this season in League One.

Marlon Pack and Joe Morrell were both sent off twice during the 2022/23 campaign, while Joe Pigott was also given his marching orders.

The trio contributed the Blues’ five red cards across the term, while John Mousinho’s men also picked up a total of 75 yellow cards in the league.
