Santa Claus
I got sent off playing for the reserves against Bedlington Terriers in December 2001. The ref had been talking to me throughout the game and calling me Jamie, so he obviously knew my name. I was then yellow carded for a tackle and he called me to him and asked me my name. I told him that he knew my name because he'd been using it all night, he then asked me for my name again - so I said 'Santa Claus'. This seemed to upset him and the yellow became red. Just to top it off, I also got the mandatory club fine!
