Former Rangers midfielder Ryan Jack made his debut for his new club in Turkey in his first league appearance in seven months...and was booked within ten minutes of coming on.
The Scotland international has signed a deal with obscure Turkish second tier outfit Esenler Erokspor after leaving Ibrox in the summer.
He finally made his bow for his new club in a 2-1 win against Alagoz Holding Igdır FK.
Jack came on as a 62nd minute substitute but was shown a yellow card nine minutes later as his side won the game to move off the bottom of the table after their first win of the season.

The Istanbul club are managed by Mehmet Altıparmak who is now on his 19th managerial job.
Jack, 32, last played in a league game back in February in a 2-0 win over Livingston and his final appearance for Rangers was in their Scottish Cup win against Ayr United in March.
He played in Scotland's two Euro 2024 warm-up games as a sub against Gibraltar and Finland but played no part in the Germany Finals.
