Jason Kennedy netted a goal but received a red card in Rochdale's first win of the season against Brentford.
Kennedy fired home the decisive third but his celebrations with the away fans earned him a second yellow card.
Anthony Elding had earlier headed Dale into the lead after pouncing on Andrew Tutte's parried long-range shot.
Robbie Simpson then levelled with a neat finish from Myles Weston's cross, before Chris O'Grady restored the lead for Rochdale from the edge of the box.
Brentford manager Andy Scott told BBC London 94.9: "I'm really disappointed, we are giving away ridiculous goals at the moment and it's not good enough.
"When you've only got one point, you've got to consider changes."
"We'll be looking at everyone and see how we can make it different."
Rochdale midfielder Jason Kennedy told BBC Manchester: "The main thing is the three points but obviously from my point of view I was delighted with my first goal for the club, then obviously straight after the disappointment of getting sent off which personally the emotions got the better of me.
"The ref's got to abide by the law, players when they score they want to celebrate with the fans and the rest of the players and there should be like a bit more leniency towards that I think."
"There's big clubs in this league, we're always going to be classed as the underdogs so it was good to get off the mark."
