Well I'll be interested to find out what is producing it. My Left Winger just said to me....
"Boss, I rated 10, 10, 9 and that wee nyaff in the other side got 10, 9, 9. But the League Association reports me as 9.46 and him 9.49.
"
Ofc my Striker said "Who cares, I've got 9.64
"
PS. If this was a task given to me and this was reported back I'd think "Oh crap, I've used the calculated match rating in the averaging instead of the match award."
But, I'll wait on further developments.
EDIT: couldn't resist a fiddle over coffee to make things fit.
Player 1 - 10 9 10 = average 9.64
Player 2 - 9 9 10 = average 9.49
Player 3 - 10 10 9 = average 9.46
One solution would be that the calculated match ratings (pre-award, before rounding)
Player 1 - 9.75 9.42 9.75
Player 2 - 9.48 9.48 9.51
Player 3 - 9.51 9.51 9.36
It still makes more sense to use the rounded, awarded rating that is displayed post match so that averages would be
Player 1 9.67
Player 2 9.33
Player 3 9.67
Just to keep my left winger happy
