Default Refs are card-happy

My record for fastest booking is 15seconds. Sorry I can't show you the screenshot but the point is there's just too many bookings in this game. And I set my tackling to normal.ridiculous.

My tackling is always on hard, (both team and individual), and I do not have a problem with either red or yellow cards.

Seems pretty good to me.

What country are you managing in? I got loads in Italy.

100 Yellow and 8 Red, in 1 season, tackling was set to medium.

I agree Otak, the cards is flying all over the place.
When i started i thought it was because i was playing low level Football (League 2) but it doesnt matter what level you play.
It feels lika every second game a player is out because he has too many bookings. I play on normal tackle and my players arent dirty?

Anything else to back this up? I've never had a problem with bookings. I do agree that a booking probably shouldn't occur that fast but thats a different matter. How often do you get cards this early on?

England, N.Ireland & Peru.

I think that it is linked to individual and team settings. If you ask a plauyer to play a role that he is not suited to or if you leave him exposed tactically then bookings and sending offs will follow.

I quite like the way it is at present.

Possibly good do with a few more cards for defenders, but that's about it.

I play Liverpool. Gerrard alone had 33 yellows and 5 reds in 1 season. He plays as an attacking mid. The def mid who was Lucas had less than 10!

I've been having this problem and it's driving me nuts.

I was told that it's a known issue.

Not sure what to suggest.

If you have Gerrard set to an attacking tactic, then maybehe is being caught out of position too often and this is the result of him trying to get back.

I would play around with the tactical setting and see if playing a slightly different way helps you.

I have found this works for me so you never know.

It was a known issue ou of the box but if anything it will be going the other way with 8.02 (I think).

The general concensus is that there are not enough booking for defenders, (I think).
