It's first come first served so please check in this thread to make sure your team hasn't already been taken.
Details
In any one month your team must have notched up the most points
on average per match to be classed as the dirtiest football team for that month.
Only matches played within the leagues listed above or domestic cup matches will count towards the total.
Scoring works as follows:
For each match your chosen team plays you will get points depending on how many red/yellow cards they receive in the match.
Additionally, if your team's manager gets sent to the stands for bad behaviour, you get a bumper bonus!
The points awarded for each type of bad behaviour are as follows:
Code:
Description Points
Yellow Card 5
Red Card 10
Manager Sent To The Stands 20
Example:
Your team plays a match and receives one red card, two yellow cards and the manager gets sent to the stands.
You will get 1x10 + 2x5 + 20 == 10 + 10 + 20 == 40 points for this match.
Prizes:
The winner each month will get a £10 'no loss' bet on their chosen team for every match they play in the following month - league and cup games only up to a maximum of 5 'no loss' bets per month.
There will be a new thread started each month where entrants can post their team's average total per match for the month.
