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.

I N J U R I E S
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%)

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).

Match Notes
JT throwing schoolboys forward five at a time, I-Man plotting the downfall of another Evil Empire rival. Youth Cup chaos on a neutral patch — penalties waiting if neither blinks first.
~ Olmec Head Ray ~ Jul 4 (Blyth Spartans AFC)
There's no way one of these teams doesn't win.
~ Brian ~ Jul 5 (Brighton & Hove Albion)
This was a tough one to predict.
~ Brian ~ Jul 9 (Brighton & Hove Albion)
This is the I-mans superbowl
~ Dave ~ Jul 10 (Lewes FC)
How many Youth Cup trophies does one man need?
~ Rob ~ Jul 11 (Plymouth Argyle FC)
I agree with Brian.
~ Phil ~ Jul 11 (Chesterfield FC)
You can never have too many Youth Cup trophies..
~ Phil ~ Jul 11 (Chesterfield FC)
Come on James kick him hard 😉
~ Simon ~ Jul 11 (Northampton Town FC)
The usual suspects.
~ Jason ~ Jul 11 (Bristol City FC)

Tough day for PNE……demotion and fumbled their youth cup……too many to hold
~ Dave ~ Jul 11 (Lewes FC)
JT's lot held their nerve when it mattered. Preston had their chances but penalties don't lie — Watford wanted it more. I-Man's Evil Empire exits the cup on spot kicks, that stings.
~ Olmec Head Ray ~ Jul 11 (Blyth Spartans AFC)
Tough way to lose a Cup final (it seems that a lot of YC finals go to pk’s)
~ Brian ~ Jul 11 (Brighton & Hove Albion)
Congratulations James!
~ Brian ~ Jul 11 (Brighton & Hove Albion)
A cagey final decided by pens. Not ideal but the fans loved the pens. Well some of them
~ Carl ~ Jul 12 (Crewe Alexandra FC)
No surprise it went to penalties with two eventually matched teams. Congrats James.
~ Andy ~ Jul 12 (Dorchester Town)
Well done James
~ Simon ~ Jul 14 (Northampton Town FC)
