ponsaelius Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Eh? Are you being sarcastic or do you think being bottom is good? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keefaz Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 It's an absolute fucking joke. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 I thought being bottom in the fair play league was good, as we have the least red/yellow cards and the lowest fouls per game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keefaz Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 I thought being bottom in the fair play league was good, as we have the least red/yellow cards and the lowest fouls per game. Yeah, it doesn't work like that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newcastle Fan Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Its not..were last on that table.. but the whole thing is a joke anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 I thought being bottom in the fair play league was good, as we have the least red/yellow cards and the lowest fouls per game. No, it means we're the worst. Absolutely no idea how that's the case but apparently we are. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Btw it's probably redundant anyway because as of January England was 9th in the 'league of leagues'. Top 3 get to hand out a place based on their own domestic ranking system. http://www.uefa.com//MultimediaFiles/Download/uefaorg/Respect/01/74/16/83/1741683_DOWNLOAD.pdf Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Here's an article on how it work: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/competitions/premier-league/8519318/How-does-the-Premier-League-Fair-Play-Table-actually-work.html It a joke we have the least Yellow's and red's, but were bottom becu=ause the ref's don't like us.

S.S.R. Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Are we worse than Stoke, according to that? Pinfalls and submissions not included, obviously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Haris Vuckic Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 That basically means that our players are ''nasty'' without actually being dirty. Probably because of the number of utterly shite decisions that go against us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keefaz Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Seems unbelievable to me that we can be marked so badly in comparison to the wankers of Man Utd, Liverpool etc. whose players are despicable both on and off the pitch, and their managers likewise. The Fair Play thing is utter balls. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 We obviously need to start stamping on people, spitting, punch the ref, argue with officials and taking weapons on to the field because were not going to improve otherwise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Its beyond ridiculous how that is worked out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Haris Vuckic Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Its beyond ridiculous how that is worked out. It's basically boils down to how 'nice' the refs think the players are. Nothing to do with their on the pitch conduct when actually in play. ''Yes Mr.Webb Sir'' Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 This fair play league needs to be done away with because it's a disgrace. Either do it properly or not at all. Whoever compiles this shit needs a P45 and a queue pass to the job centre because they're shit Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 We have the same number of cards as stoke yet in that table have a worse score than them in that particular column? Edit we have 2% more red cards.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest michaelfoster Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Should be Yellow/Red cards only with a preset amount of additions for specific events Yellow Card - 5 pts per card Red Card - 10 pts per card Surrounding referee (only the captain & player the referee wishes to speak to can approach the referee) - 5 pts Swearing at referee decision - 10 pts Swearing at opponent - 5 pts Mass confrontations/brawls - 10 pts Player sent off for violent conduct - 10 additional pts to red card Team with the least points get the possible euro place Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Looking purely at cards we're joint 11th: http://soccernet.espn.go.com/stats/fairplay/_/league/eng.1/barclays-premier-league?cc=5739 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gggg Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Should be scrapped completely. It's bad enough runners up and near mid table sides getting in nevermind something so arbitrary. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
