    Anyone else noticed a marked increase in yellow cards this season? Desert Rats averaged a card every two matches in each of the previous 6 seasons; this season they've already got 32 in only 35 matches. I've not changed the way they play in terms of tactics or orders, and it's the established players, not the newcomers this season, that are bearing the brunt of the increase...

    Any formation or tactics advice given is based purely on experience with my teams...

    Meant to post this myself. I play with 'normal' tackling but 9 of my starters, including all four defenders, are hanging by a thread. And the only field player who has not got a ban threat hanging over him just got back from one. This season I had my AML (who hasn't got even a yellow in the previous campaign) red-carded in the 1st minute with no explanation given.
    I suspect it finally kicked in for Nordeus that lack of injuries in training and a plethora of med packs at higher levels allows us to field the strongest starters day in day out. So, it's raining yellows.
