Referee Stats quiz

[Bounty Bob]

And when you get V Jones, foul like a bastard?

[filippodb]

one of this value should be "variability". I recall dino talking about Zappa and said this referee act like the musician: he quite never made the same thing twice...

[filippodb]

I bet the 3rd value is variability and second is red card possibility

[Calimero]

Wasn't there a ref stat for how many fouls he 'sees' ?

[Steve Camber]

Wasn't there a ref stat for how many fouls he 'sees' ?

Yes, that's Column 4.

100 I. BALL - Nothing escapes him, bring down a player and he will blow the whistle.

25 A.N. INDI - He will spot 1 in 4 fouls, but be careful, he only gives out red cards.

A.N. INDI - He will spot 1 in 4 fouls, but be careful, he only gives out red cards.

Didn't remember that until that second match against Gianluca in Groningen.

I don't know how this applies to Steve's stats ... but V Jones will see most tackles and always issue a yellow card per foul but never a straight red iir - Naz and I use him as default ref for the last 15 years

Column 2

If 200, then just give a straight red. If less than 200 and a card is given, then add onto the number of fouls the player has comitted, making a 2nd card more likely.

Does this mean that refs with 0 in the second column never give red cards?
This is dangerous information in the wrong hands!
(are you reading this, Spyros?)

[Abyss]

Erm... Steve, can you please alter the second column values so all refs have at least 100? Non filthy KO thanks you.

No, the number of fouls will continue to increase, meaning a red card will still follow eventually.

[Robert]

V.Jones should be used as the 'control' here.

He gives a yellow card for every foul.

Column 1 is the chance of the foul receiving a card (low is higher).
Column 2 is the chance of the card being red.

For the others, interested in the answers...

Suspect that 4 may well be chance of a tackle being given as a foul, but I also thought this was related to the Tackling score of the player? Steve?

[Robert]

Steve - the best experiment is to compare V.Jones with F.Willis.

See if F.Willis gives a yellow for every foul, then see who has the higher propsensity to award a foul?

[Steve Camber]

I gave the answers to the quiz halfway down the first page.

Kinda silly to keep guessing

Suspect that 4 may well be chance of a tackle being given as a foul, but I also thought this was related to the Tackling score of the player? Steve?

Correct, 4 is the chance of the ref seeing a player getting tripped up and blowing the whistle.
The Tackling score of the player decides who wins the ball when two players meet (no sliding involved, so a separate issue).
