Gandy Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Never seen this one before, pretty interesting. It was a filthy match though (Bolton had two red cards and I had one). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWaRFeGa Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Yeah I've had that too. Didn't even notice the amount of yellows during the game. Nowt wrong with a "bit of edge", as I always say in my conferences. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vurogj Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Nice feature, but, 1.32 MILLION?!?! Chelsea only got a 20k fine in October for the same charge, and Arsenal and Newcastle got 30k fines in August. What were your guys being booked for? Murder?

Some Guy! Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Hang on... What?! £1.32 million?! In fact, being in brackets that means that you were fined -£1.32 million... Am I reading that right?! Even if it is actually a fine of £1.32 million that is just crazy, far more than a club would ever be fined by an order of magnitude or two!

jayahr Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Wow, that's harsh, even more when looking at the amount of the fine. 6 yellows are a lot, but I don't see this as outrageous at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandy Posted December 22, 2011 Author Share Posted December 22, 2011 Seems West Ham has a habit of copping fairly large fines .. cough*Tevez affair*cough. Yer, it was taken out my balance, I thought it was a normal fine? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kain Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Should definitely be reported in the bugs forum. It's about 60 times too high! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMT Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Nice feature, not come across it myself, but as said, the fine is way way too much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joetheref Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 'Clubs are fined £25,000 for having six or more cautions in one match, then £50,000 for a second offence.' From this article in September 2010, perhaps something SI need to change http://www.expressandstar.com/sport/2010/09/13/wolves-fined-for-rash-of-yellow-cards/#ixzz1hGEhpqsC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandy Posted December 22, 2011 Author Share Posted December 22, 2011 Does anyone know if this feature was recently added? I am fairly sure I’ve received more than six cards in a game this season. Jack Robinson has just had to sit out for three games for collecting 15 yellows (after 32 games). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikal Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 I've seen this prior to 12.1, but it wasn't as much a fine as £1.32m! It's common practice to issue fines for X amount of yellows, so it shouldn't be a new feature. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vector Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Is this the complete story, or is it 6 yellow cards and 6 rivals with severe injuries ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrizzitD Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Have been fined for 6 yellows in a game since first version of 12 dont know if it was in 11 or not. Have never had a fine that large though biggest I saw was around 20K I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicha_14 Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 I've seen this in the PL but never in another league. Does anyone know if this rule applies to other leagues on the continent? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chile_paul Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 FA are obviously developing a tougher stance on all punishments. First Suarez gets an 8 match ban, now a club gets fined £1.32 million! Maybe they're behind schedule with the payments for Wembley! That'll teach 'em!

Tom14 Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Was this the first time you'd had that amount of yellows? Edit - Just re-read and you said it's the first time you've seen it so it mus be. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
