Championship Manager 93/Glossary

This page explains some of the terms and jargon used in the game.

Average rating
The average ratings system is really the backbone of Championship Manager (and pretty much every management game that has followed it). It is basically a way of seeing at-a-glance how well your players are performing over the course of a season.

At the end of each match, every player is given a rating out of ten, based on how they have performed (ten being a fantastic performance and 1 being awful). As the season progresses, each player's ratings are added up and divided by the number of games they have played - giving an average rating. You can then look at a player's average rating and tell pretty accurately how well (or how badly) they are playing at that time.

Inside the game, the term "average rating" is often abbreviated to '''Av. Rating or Av. Rat.'''

Discipline
Discipline points are given to a player when he receives a yellow or red card during a game. Yellow cards are worth 5 discipline points and red cards are worth 10. Discipline are added up over the season and displayed in each player's profile (as well as in the discipline table for his division).

When a player reaches 20 discipline points he will receive a short ban.
