Injuries & Suspensions
A fresh layer of chaos: players can now break, strain or earn themselves a holiday via the ref’s pocket.
No kick-off with crocks or bad boys. If a starter is injured or banned, shuffle the XI or forfeit.
Injuries arise when you flog energy, lunge like a lumberjack or play on a Chernobyl pitch. Low stamina + brutal tackles + swampy turf = enforced spa break.
Suspensions work the same (out of the line-up) with extra misery: the vacant slot can’t be filled mid-match if the red card happened on the pitch.
Booking maths
5 yellows accumulated = 1-match ban.
Straight red or two yellows = off today plus one more match. The ref’s new toybox dishes cards with 1993 gusto, so mind those crunchers.
Weather that bites
Atmosphere is no longer flavour text: heavy rain, boggy ground or heatwave now guzzle energy and crank up injury odds. Try pinging a ball on a waterlogged cabbage patch and watch morale (and ankles) disappear.
Energy & Morale tweaks
Field condition, weather and play style now feed directly into stamina drain.
Assigned roles give the lucky lad a morale bump, but spamming five roles on one bloke does nothing extra.
Captain and vice-captain can’t be the same person anymore (nice try).
Boots laced, lads... this grass means business.
