That's wrong.

England has to be in the top three of FairPlay league in the whole of Europe then if they are the top team from the premier league will be in the qualifying rounds.

Correct.

It also goes on far more than just red & yellow cards on some pretty subjective things such as players attitude. The actual table is only released a couple of times a year.

if it were simply red and yellow cards,,we have the least and would be top of the EPL fair play league.
BUT..
there are 6marks.the first is above attained by lack of cautions.
the other 5 are.{ all marked by a fair play delegate at each match }
respect towards officials.
respect towards opposition players.
behaviour of team officials
behaviour of the public.
positive play { attacking play }.

like all things that are judged,two different people could give hugely different scores on any of those 5 having watched exactly the same game..
dont hold your breath because we might have the least cautions, but are 11th in the overall table

We are currently banned from playing in any European competition for breaking financial fair play rules.

if youve read my post,its a f*cking carve up anyway.........take the Malky protest at Liverpool, behaviour of fans.. the protest had a hell of a lot of good press, so could have scored high, but did contain abuse towards Tan, so could be marked low......
Liverpool are currently top of this table,and having just watched them, as good as they were, a bigger bunch of cheating cunts you will not find anywhere.
