In all the years I've been playing this game I've had many a player sent off. I think we all have.

However, in more recent times we've been given the option of appealing against a ban given to a player by the FA - especially on some of the more dubious decisions.

But despite the odd appeal I've never ever had a red card for a player recinded. So I was just wondering, is this a pointless feature or has anyone out there actually had a successful appeal?!!

jamesduburguet

same for me! and what is the point of ur assistant giving you advice when all he tells you is he doesnt know whether or not you should appeal!!! very annoying!

KeanosRedAndWhiteArmy

well i thought i did one time but to be told he been banned for another 4 games shocking

just the luck really

Younging

yep, same here. the option might as well ont be there

JReacher

yes ofcours its pointles


Just like commenting on post match decisions!!!I serve 2 or 3 touchlines bannes per season and in half of the things FA remain SILENT OF My critcism

It doenst matter if i am correct or wrong...

Nick Foster

Agree with you Keano...

Whenever you seem to appeal, the ban just seems to be extended!!

Grrrrr!

i've seen reports of it happening... rarely... really not worth the bother though

ive seen alot of players in my game use their elbows for tackling, i keep fining them and trying new ones. it feels like im running a karate class, not a football team.

KeanosRedAndWhiteArmy

by appealing i think it makes it worse

i just moan to the fa if i get a red card

one time my game got abbandond as i was down to like 6 or 7 players

just went on a rampage

And i know that IRL the FA are going to side with the Referee most of the time and that is fair enough, but occasionally IRL a ban will be overturned on video evidence in a post match review. That'd be a nice little feature...
