Nottingham Forest disciplinary latest - how many bookings do Reds players have?

Nottingham Forest midfielder Jack Colback picked up his 14th booking of the Championship campaign last weekend, putting him at risk of another suspension.

With just seven games of the season to go, we've taken a look at the disciplinary standings among the the Reds squad - and the Newcastle United loanee is walking something of a disciplinary tightrope.

We have now passed the cut-off point for players to pick up a ban for collecting 10 bookings – which comes after 37 league fixtures and leads to the player missing two games, as was the case most recently with full-back Jack Robinson, and earlier in the campaign with Colback.

Why Championship strikers won't enjoy facing Nottingham Forest's defensive duo Yohan Benalouane and Alexander Milosevic  

But a three-match suspension would be applied for anyone who reaches 15 yellows before the end of the campaign.

Colback is now right on the verge of that, having gone into referee Jeremy Simpson's notebook in the 2-1 victory over Swansea City on Saturday.

Other than Robinson (on 10), Forest do not have anyone close to that tally.

Ben Watson and Yohan Benalouane are joint-third on the list when it comes to yellows in the league throughout this term, with six apiece, while Joao Carvalho and Joe Lolley each have five.

In total, the Reds have amassed 92 yellow cards this season and five reds.

Benalouane, Tobias Figueiredo, Tendayi Darikwa, Robinson and Diogo Goncalves have all been sent off, with the latter’s dismissal coming in the Carabao Cup, in the 3-2 victory over Stoke City.
