    Yellow and Red cards: If no cards are shown the score will be 10. For every yellow card will deduct this total by 1. A red card will cost a team 3 points in the ranking. If the red card is the result of a second yellow card the deductions of the two yellow card will be ignored. But if a player gets a direct red card after he got a yellow card earlier, the yellow card will be counted as a deduction. This score could become negative.
    Positive play: For positive play a team can score a maximum of 10 point and a minimum of 1 point.
    Respect to the opponent: e.g. returning the ball to the opponent at a throw-in: maximum 5 points, minimum 1 point.
    Respect to the referee: maximum 5 points, minimum 1 point.
    Behaviour of the team officials: maximum 5 points, minimum 1 point.
    Behaviour of the fans: maximum of 5 point and a minimum of 1 point
    NB: this criterion is ignored when the number of fans is negligible e.g. if there are no fans at all or because of penalty that was given by the UEFA.

    I'm pretty sure the fans have blown it for us.

    What exactly is positive play?

    Flowing attacking football as opposed to long ball ****e?

    Well Fulham have some yellows to come from last weekend. Not sure about ours but can't remember off hand any yellows against Liverpool.

    Apparently our fans were lobbing bottles on the pitch and were baton charged by police so that's what kicked it all off. Just us involved cause Boro don't have any fans!

    That point system is a load of crap, its a magic 8 ball and on monday morning the FA shake it to see what score they get.

    When Ashley Cole near ripped someones leg off and then complained he never touched him the points score chelsea got was for playing a fair game :eek:

    its also updated weekly until they won the spot, hmmmm suspicious?
