Championship 'dirtiest' players table exposes Birmingham City, West Brom, Ipswich Town and Blackburn Rovers stars

A look at the 25 players with the most cards in the Sky Bet Championship throughout the 2023/24 season.

The Sky Bet Championship is not only one of the most entertaining football divisions in Europe but also one of the most competitive.

Every ball is fought for and only the most physical and talented will come out on top in various battles up and down the league.

Referees, albeit critiqued plenty, have a tough job keeping the action as civil as possible, especially during the tightest of matches.

Around 21 fouls are given every game on average, meaning the officials’ whistles and cards are called into action regularly.

But who are the players who can be judged to be the dirtiest of all? From the least to most, here are the top 25 in the Championship for cards received.
