    Why should I check every single referee? It's a random check across 10 referees, stats are random as they are supossed to be. The penalty issue is something related to the ME, there was a similair issue that occured a long time ago, FM 17 beta I'm guessing. 

    That's plainly wrong though, some referees will have set attributes and other won't - which is the exact genesis of the player problem and may be why the penalties issue seems to be playing out only at some levels.

    There's two options:

    1 - your theory, is that the ME is so broken on penalties but SI didn't notice this over months of their own testing. The problem is therefore elusive and complicated and may never be fixed.

    2 - my theory, is that the attributes issue (introduced shortly prior to release) is making a number of referees in the game absolutely useless and resulting in the giving out too many penalties at the levels they play in, which are not those most players begin in.

    I'm no sycophant to SI, but in addition to genuinely hoping its the second one, I seriously think it's the more likely

    I've just seen a post in the bug forum about how news items still say things like "Burnley u23 have made a bid for" (albeit that wasn't the issue the poster was posting about).

    Can SI confirm whether this is a bug or a feature?

    If it's a bug, I reported it in here during beta, admittedly not in bug section but it should be blatant to anyone playing.

    If it's a feature, does anyone agree with it? I can just about accept how Castilla bidding on someone would be different than Real Madrid, but even then most news outlets would say RM bid. For Scottish/English clubs it should ALL be the same thing.

    If the chap just hasn't updated to full release then let me know.

    Can any of the brave soldiers persevering confirm the above persists in release, or have views on it?

    I was hoping for some feedback from other users on their experience of the ME, but this is getting a bit toxic now. The attributes bug will be fixed asap, it's the ME that needs to be discussed.

    Penalties, cards, suicidal decision-making and frequency of mistakes leading to goals are so strange and abundant, I'm finding matches hard to analyse.

    Might they not be partially linked?

    There's certainly a suggestion the penalties in lower leagues might be caused by mentally defunct referees, per the above bug.
