Bryan Robson has warned his players not to add to the clubs poor disciplinary record. Albion, on sunday (16th), take on Fulham at Craven Cottage, a tie which last saw a total of 3 players sent off, Papa-Bouba Diop and Andy Cole for Fulham and Neil Clement for Albion. Talking about the 'must-win game' for both clubs Robson said: "I think the sting has been taken out of it to a certain degree as Andy Cole is suspended. But my players will be reminded that it is hard enough playing in the Premiership with 11 men let alone 10.

"We have found that against Liverpool and Manchester City when we had a player sent off in both of those matches. They were really tough games for the lads because they went down to 10 men and they will be reminded of that.

"Both those sendings-off were unfortunate and the discipline of the players has been good and I expect that to continue."
