Each player is next given a chance for a yellow/red card. 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.

A major consequence of hardness is that your opponents get injured.
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.

There is a 10% chance of conceding a penalty for every hardness point used.
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%)

(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).

Match Notes
Antoine sets up at home, which usually means something — though Lincoln arrive quietly, as they tend to do. Watch the spaces behind Oldham's fullbacks.
~ Olmec Head Marcus ~ Jul 4 (Coventry City)
Good luck gents. This would be Mike's second FA Shield trophy if he ends with the win.
~ Brian ~ Jul 5 (Brighton & Hove Albion)
Good luck, bring that trophy to MEDITECH!
~ Rob ~ Jul 11 (Plymouth Argyle FC)
Good luck to both teams in the pursuit of the tin pot trophy. It is s till a trophy after all!
~ Vick ~ Jul 11 (Weston-super-Mare AFC)
Come on Oldham 😂
~ Simon ~ Jul 11 (Northampton Town FC)
Mike next time I come to play you get the decent stuff out 🥳
~ Simon ~ Jul 11 (Northampton Town FC)
Mix of support (Rob) and NOT (Simon), we hope to make one of you happy and one of you not.
~ Mike ~ Jul 11 (Lincoln City FC)
Best of luck, Antoine, this should be a good one!
~ Mike ~ Jul 11 (Lincoln City FC)

Those two goals and three points put you in D2. Congratulations Mike!
~ Brian ~ Jul 11 (Brighton & Hove Albion)
Antoine's Oldham kept a clean sheet in their heads and nothing else. Lincoln did what the scoreline required. Efficient.
~ Olmec Head Marcus ~ Jul 11 (Coventry City)
Ooops, this was the Cup. Still, great job by the Imps.
~ Brian ~ Jul 11 (Brighton & Hove Albion)
Thanks, Brian, we did also promote in our final match, in part because BHA pushed WES to a draw.
~ Mike ~ Jul 11 (Lincoln City FC)
Nice match and run, Antoine, we were fortunate to sneak a couple through vs OST.
~ Mike ~ Jul 11 (Lincoln City FC)
Thanks. I wasn't expecting anything from this final. A win wouldn't have been deserved, considering the season I've had. Congratulations to the winner!👏
~ Antoine ~ Jul 11 (Oldham Athletic AFC)
Congratulations C-Ball! Great shield run Antoine! 🏆
~ Allan ~ Jul 11 (Brentford FC)
Unlucky Antoine. Congrats Mike
~ Carl ~ Jul 12 (Crewe Alexandra FC)
Not much between the teams. Congrats Mike.
