I said last week I would explain the changes to the red cards rule. Sorry I didn't explain it in the week, but here it is starting from this weekend.
The penalty will be the amount of minutes listed below for each position multiplied by (how many minutes left in the game when they are sent off/ 90). Rounded Up.
A attacker sent off in the 29th minute will receive 6*(61/90) = 4.0667 rounded to 5pts
A defender sent off in the 29th minute will receive 8*(61/90) = 5.4222 rounded to 6pts
A goalkeeper sent off in the 29th minute will receive 10*(61/90) = 6.7778 rounded to 7pts
Much harsher penalty, but think it better reflects the true cost of losing a man. We will also be having slightly harder goal targets this week.
It actually all comes down to when Ramires got sent off currently. It happened 44 minutes and 20 seconds in according to the BBC. If that counts as 44 minutes played then you have 4 defensive points (and are 1-0 down), if it counts as 45 minutes then you only have 3 defensive points and its still 0-0.
Doubt it will come down to this after Tuesday's games though.
Still having a couple of problems uploading the data, but will revisit it in an hour. All red carded players minutes have been set to 90 just because it is easier. There penalties have counted though.
Everything should be correct now. These Tuesday game are going to be massive. Funk is ahead on away goal in the Cup Final, but Hutchy still has a chance to score a 3rd.

Really could do with a 2nd goal here though.
Tight game though. I've scored myself so you definitely need a 2nd.
That Southampton goal actually really helped me I think despite both of us having Sunderland defenders.
If I'm not mistaken Charlie is currently 1-0 down despite none of his defenders having conceded a single goal! :eek:
Looks like it
Is that right? Chelsea didn't concede after Ramires was sent off.

I'll need to check the defenders goals at the end of the United game. I agree though. Thanks for letting me know.
Yep cheers. Ramires' penalty is 4 points as you already alluded too.
*think there's a problem with BBC sport so think we might be missing a few of the late goals and United-Swansea goals. They will be up soon.
McAuley scored an own goal for Simon. Sorry. Own goals aren't very obvious on the matchday sheets.
Reid had 1 too many goals against him not one too few, he only conceded 1 as he went off at half time
The * part wasn't a reference to that, just in general. Sturridge's 3rd hasn't been added, so that's the main one I can see.
I reckon your best chance is City/Arsenal conceding 3 goals between them. Walcott getting some points will reduce what you need. You never know.
Reid still has 2 goals conceded not 1
Zabaleta is banned because of the cup final red surely?
Forgot about that. Needs Wigan to score 2 then.
