Having 2 players sent off at once...

My DC just got sent off for a professional foul. My start striker just received a second booking for complaining. I wish this happened in real life coz I would cut their bollocks off. Has this ever happened to anyone else? I'm kind of surprised it doesn't happen a bit more IRL as some players can go nuts without thinking they're on a yellow already.

And it's always puzzled me why you can fine a player 2 weeks for a straight red, but never for 2 yellows. In this example, my striker more than deserves a fine for getting sent off, especially for dissent. But I know he'll complain when I fine him even though he has no right to.

I have had two sent off in one match but not at the same time, that was in FM11 though.

I've had 2 sent off at the same time for a scenario very similar to yours

Almost happened to me, I had a player sent off after 20 seconds, another player got booked at the same time, 2mins later and i'm 1-0 down and the same player who complained about the red then complained about the goal and was off. I was less than impressed.

I wonder if anyone has ever seen 2 players being sent off for fighting with each other? Or for an action/reaction kinda phase (f.e. dirty bad tackle followed by a headbutt orso).

It happens IRL and if both players have high dirtiness, low professionalism etc, then it should happen in FM too?

I had a player sent off on FM09 for throwing a right hook at the opposition (that is how the commentary described it) he had some mental sending offs. Including being sent off within 5 minutes of being subbed on for diving inside the box twice, arguing a lot and generally just trying to end peoples careers. He was a great winger when he just focused on playing, but he was too mental.

My opposition had three sent off at once. A straight red for a professional foul, then two second bookings for complaining about it.
