How many apps do you need for a medal these days?

 

25? At least it used to be like that if I'm not mistaken.

 

Actually no idea, that seems really high.

 

10 I think. That's how Owen got one.

Players are required to have made 10 appearances in a club's first team to qualify for a medal.

You can find information relating to this and other rules in the 'rules' section of our website.

Clubs must submit an application for additional medals to be awarded to players who have not reached this tally.

 

Hmm.

Hmm.

 

Maybe if their lack of appearances can be seen as being down to exceptional circumstances or something?

Probably. Not sure if injury will qualify as one though.

Sir Alex Ferguson has revealed his intention to give medals to every player who has contributed to this season’s Barclays Premier League title success.

 

The Reds boss is happy that the Premier League have relaxed their rule to allow league-winning clubs to reward more squad members with medals.

 

Previously only those who had made 10 or more league appearances were eligible and clubs were required to apply for extra medals for players who had not reached that tally. But now five appearances is the requirement and United will receive 40 medals, 10 more than before.

 

And Sir Alex confirmed: "They [the fringe players] will get medals. It’s changed now. They give you an allocated number of medals and it’s up to you to distribute them how you want.

 

"I think that’s fair because, in Darren Fletcher’s case for instance, it’s only illness which has prohibited him from getting a medal [under the old 10 appearances rule]. I’m sure if he’d been available he would have been sitting here with one.

 

"[Alexander] Büttner’s been great because he’s travelled to every away game with us, he’s been involved in every single training session, he’s played three times and been a substitute another 10 times, something like that. So I think that’s a contribution.

 

"It’s very difficult for a goalkeeper to get the 10 appearances when your first-choice goalkeeper is performing the way David De Gea has. So I think Anders Lindegaard deserves his medal too. We’ll distribute the way

That's surely the one thing that would qualify?

Could be a seriously illness unrelated to Football would qualify but nothing else, or could be completely down to Premier League discretion.  Not that it matters since apparently the rules have changed.

Nee idea. Might be a case of the player missing a match cos his sow has given birth. Besides, where would you draw the line at the number of matches missed through injuries.  :dontknow:
