The first number listed is the chance for the player to get the yellow/red card while the second number shows the random number drawn. If the random number is less than or equal to the player's yellow/red card chance then the player is sent off. Note that the chances are as follows: - Booking: 1.5 x (3 + (1.5 x Team_Hardness)) - Red Card: 0.25 x (3 + (1.5 x Team_Hardness))) If a player is booked we immediately draw a second number to check for a 'second yellow' (red card chance) resulting in a sending off. If a player is not booked we draw a red card chance to see if the player was given a straight red card. Note that the aforementioned formula differs for a Gk where the formula uses the hardness points added to your Gk area and NOT the team hardness points. ******* SHEFFIELD UNITED YELLOW/RED CARD CHANCES ******* - Team Hardness = 0 - Gk Hardness = 0 Gk Miljenko Sucic: Chance of booking = 4.5% | Random number = 39.44 (no booking) Chance of straight red card = 0.75% | Random number = 13.38 (no red card) Sw Raichi Nakamura: Chance of booking = 4.5% | Random number = 24.88 (no booking) Chance of second booking = 0.75% | Random number = 63.67 (no red card) Df Ivan Rakitic: Chance of booking = 4.5% | Random number = 41.23 (no booking) Chance of second booking = 0.75% | Random number = 80.48 (no red card) Df Nana Inkoom: Chance of booking = 4.5% | Random number = 22.58 (no booking) Chance of second booking = 0.75% | Random number = 91.85 (no red card) Df Victor Gyasi: Chance of booking = 4.5% | Random number = 94.11 (no booking) Chance of second booking = 0.75% | Random number = 70.7 (no red card) Mf Ismaila Aminu: Chance of booking = 4.5% | Random number = 31.98 (no booking) Chance of second booking = 0.75% | Random number = 50.9 (no red card) Mf Rodrigo Nunez: Chance of booking = 4.5% | Random number = 6.05 (no booking) Chance of second booking = 0.75% | Random number = 74.02 (no red card) Mf Ciriaco Bickel: Chance of booking = 4.5% | Random number = 71.53 (no booking) Chance of second booking = 0.75% | Random number = 98.27 (no red card) Fw Lilian Mendy: Chance of booking = 4.5% | Random number = 66.94 (no booking) Chance of second booking = 0.75% | Random number = 38.87 (no red card) Fw Pablo Ryan: Chance of booking = 4.5% | Random number = 56.68 (no booking) Chance of second booking = 0.75% | Random number = 6.69 (no red card) Fw Malthe Hedegaard: Chance of booking = 4.5% | Random number = 2.43 (BOOKED!)

For each player the chance of injury is: ((your team’s hardness * .25) + (opponent’s hardness * .75) + 2.5)%. For example if your team has a hardness of 8 and the opposition has a hardness of 4, the chance of injury for each player would be: 2 + 3 + 2.5 or 7.5%. The chance is halved for the opposition Gk. A player plays at half his normal level (skill plus fitness) in the match in which he is injured. Injured players lose fitness as a result, the amount of fitness lost being shown on the game report in brackets. There is a 30% chance of no fitness loss, 15% chance of 1 level fitness lost, 15% of 2 levels, and a 10% chance of each of 3,4,5, or 6 fitness levels being lost. This fitness loss (if any) takes place at the end of the session, for reasons of simplicity. Should a player be injured twice or more in a session, only the most severe injury will apply. ******* SHEFFIELD UNITED CHANCES FOR INJURY ******* - Sheffield United Team Hardness = 0 - Brentford FC Team Hardness = 0 - All (except Gk) chance of injury = 2.5% - Gk chance of injury = 1.25% Gk Miljenko Sucic: Chance of injury = 1.25% | Random number = 97.49 (no injury) Sw Raichi Nakamura: Chance of injury = 2.5% | Random number = 50.35 (no injury) Df Ivan Rakitic: Chance of injury = 2.5% | Random number = 87.22 (no injury) Df Nana Inkoom: Chance of injury = 2.5% | Random number = 10.37 (no injury) Df Victor Gyasi: Chance of injury = 2.5% | Random number = 1.52 (INJURED!)

Each 10% chance is separate, so a team could concede as many penalties as it plays hardness points. If no hardness is used, there is still a 5% penalty chance. The chance of a penalty being scored is: 50 + (4 x penalty takers skill) - (2 x Gk skill) % (to a maximum 95%) ******* BRENTFORD FC CHANCES OF ALLOWING PENALTY KICKS ******* - Team Hardness: 0; (1 5% chance of yielding a PK) - PK Taker: Ivan Rakitic SL 8 - Defending Gk: John Kosowski SL 7 intRndPk = 77 1: Chance of PK occurring = 5% | Random number = 77 (no penalty kick) ******* SHEFFIELD UNITED CHANCES OF ALLOWING PENALTY KICKS ******* - Team Hardness: 0; (1 5% chance of yielding a PK) - PK Taker: Christian Hennessey SL 13 - Defending Gk: Miljenko Sucic SL 8 intRndPk = 22 1: Chance of PK occurring = 5% | Random number = 22 (no penalty kick) ============================================================================ ============================================================================ A T T A C K I N G C H A N C E S & S H O T S (i) If team A's Fw area total is greater than team B's Df area total, then A earns a number of attacks equal to the difference. Note: A Sw does NOT add his levels to the Df in this league! (ii) The team with the highest Mf area total gets attacks equal to half the difference. (iii) If team A's Df area total is greater than team B's Fw total, then team A earns a number of attacks equal to one fifth of the difference. If team A is playing a sweeper behind the defence, this rises to one third of the difference. All fractions of attacks are rounded up, and then each of the attacks is treated as follows to see how many produce shots, then goals: (iv) Attacks have first to beat the Sw (if playing!). For each attack, there is a percentage chance of it being stopped equal to: 30 + (Sw level x 2) % (eg a level 10 Sw stops 30+10x2=50% of attacks.) Attacks passing the Sw become shots. (v) Each shot has a 35% chance of being off-target. If a side has scored 2 goals this rises to 40%, then by a further 5% after each goal scored, to a maximum of 75%. This is to curb ridiculous scorelines (with luck!) (vi) Finally, on-target shots come up against the Gk. This is similar to the Sw test, but the percentage is: 40 + (Gk level x 2.25) % Notes: If the defense is playing offside trap then the offensive team has their Fw attacks cut in half and theor Mf attacks doubled. A team choosing to PFD has 7 extra levels to split between Sw, Df and Mf areas, but their attacks for each area will be halved (round up fractions). ******* SHEFFIELD UNITED ATTACKING CHANCES AND SHOTS ******* AREA TOTALS GK Sw Df Mf Fw ------------------------------------------- Sheffield United 10 6 23 25 20 Brentford FC 12 9 31 16 44 Sheffield United Fw Attacks = 0 (20 - 31) Sheffield United Mf Attacks = 5 ((25 - 16) / 2) ; result rounded up Sheffield United Df Attacks = 0 ((23 - 44) / 3; rounded up) Sheffield United Total Attacks = 5 1: Attack for Mf Rodrigo Nunez Chance of Sw stopping attack = 48% | Random number = 100 (Sw did not stop attack!!)

Match Notes

2-goal underdogs today against Paul and the Blades...
Allan (Brentford FC) 06/21 - 8:29 PM

No doubt this will be our usual early exit from the YC, despite Al's (pretended?) pessimism
Paul (Sheffield United) 06/26 - 7:02 AM


As expected my prognostication is once again spot on. Good luck in the next round Paul!
Allan (Brentford FC) 06/28 - 6:40 PM

Another unexpected and undeserved result.
