Scoring preset

Only Bans scoring

Cards, fouls and general shit-housery. No goals rule and no appearance points, so a clean ninety minutes scores exactly zero — which is both the joke and the reason the price ladder ranks the pool by how dirty a player is.

Every rule, position by position

11 rules. Values shown are the points each position actually receives.

Rule GKP DEF MID FWD
Yellow Cards +4 +4 +4 +4
Red Cards +10 +10 +10 +10
Fouls Committed +2 +2 +2 +2
Penalties Conceded +6 +6 +6 +6
Errors Leading to Goal +5 +5 +5 +5
Errors Leading to Shot +2 +2 +2 +2
Own Goals +8 +8 +8 +8
Last-man Tackles +5 +5 +5 +5
Dribbled Past +1 +1 +1 +1
Offsides +1 +1 +1 +1
Fouls Drawn per 3 +1 +1 +1 +1

This preset does not enable bonus points. You can turn them on when you build the league.

Who it is for

Short leagues, side bets, and any group that finds a sending-off funnier than a hat-trick. The rare events carry the big numbers and the common ones carry the volume, so fouls provide the weekly scoring and a red card decides the week.

What to change first

  • Flip the cards negative to turn it into a discipline league instead of a celebration of one.
  • Drop own goals and errors if you want deliberate villainy rewarded and plain incompetence ignored.
  • Add appearance points if scoring zero for a tidy performance feels too harsh.
  • Raise fouls won — the dark arts pay one per three here, which makes it the quietest rule in the table.
