Sharpy07 Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 I read on this froum that someone did a save till May 11 in the Premier League and noticed that the rules stated that a player will recv' a 1 match ban after recv' 15 yellow cards. So i checked this and started unemployed and went on hol till May 11 and he was right. So i carried on till August 11 and the rules changed back to 5 yellow cards for 1 match ban for the new season. Is this right? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xtradj Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 it should be 1 game ban for 5.. 2 for 10, and 3 games for 15 cards so are you saying after 15 cards its still a 1 game ban? didnt notice this, but if true another huge error Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpy07 Posted November 7, 2010 Author Share Posted November 7, 2010 yeah it says one match ban after 15 yellow cards. I've just gone to End of Jan 11 on it, and the rules say one match ban after 10 yellow cards!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpy07 Posted November 7, 2010 Author Share Posted November 7, 2010 I've started a new thread, as my title on the previous one wasn't very good and dont people were looking at it, and i feel needs to raised.

Themer Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Working as designed. I'm pretty sure that there is a certain cut off point in the season whereby the amount of cards needed for a ban is increased as the season goes on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Carnivorous Badger Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 It should just be 1 match for 5 yellows, 2 match for ten, 3 match for fifteen etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ediocy Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Here's a screenshot of page 9 of the FA Discipline Handbook 2010/2011 taken off the FA's website: I have no idea if the caution threshold windows (i.e. from start of season till 31st December, from start of season till second Sunday of April, from start of season till end of season) is a new addition to the disciplinary rules, but it seems to me that the current ingame situation has resulted from SI trying to reflect the caution threshold windows more accurately with the passing of time but failing to update the appropriate length of ban. If the ingame rules are working exactly according to how it's worded, then a player who has received 4 yellow cards between the start of season till 31st of December and subsequently 6 more yellow cards from 1st January till say March, he will only get a 1 match ban from receiving 10 yellow cards. In real life, he would not get punished for his 5th yellow card with a 1 match ban but rather a warning as to his future conduct as his 5th yellow card occurred after 31st December. However, since he accumulated 10 yellow cards prior to the second Sunday of April, his 10th yellow card will result in a straight 2 match ban. Therein lies the discrepancy, if indeed that is what is happening ingame currently. SI could get rid of the "2 match ban after next five yellow cards, three match ban for every additional five yellow cards" lines and just replace them with the FA's own wording (i.e. 1 match ban for five yellow cards between start of season till 31st December, 2 match ban for ten yellow cards between start of season till second Sunday of April, so on and so forth). Although, might that be a little too complicated for the editor? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
