Reading are one of a handful of teams yet to see a man sent off as the Championship hits the halfway stage, according to Transfermarkt's Fair Play statistics.

With a reputation of being soft and quiet, the statistics back this up to a degree as the Royals, along with QPR, Birmingham City and Stoke City, are yet to be forced to play on in reduced numbers.

In comparison, Sunderland have been shown two straight reds while Blackpool have had three straight reds and two sent off for picking up a double yellow.

Sitting eighth overall, with 47 yellow cards, Queens Park Rangers lead the way with just 35.

Mamadou Loum and andy Yiadom, both of which have missed games so far this season after picking up five bookings, lead the way in yellow cards witth seven apiece.

Tom Holmes and Baba Rahman have four, although the cut-off is now 10 cards before suspension.

Reading are yet to be involvede in a game with a red card, both teams keeping 11 men on the pitch in each of the 23 fixtures so far this campaign.

The Royals won the award over the course of the last two seasons, seeing just one double yellow card and 67 in total across 46 matches during 2021/22.

Currently on track to pick up 94, that would see them finish 13th on last season's standings, 26 clear of 'dirtiest' side Blackburn Rovers.
