Agreed - and it's all so easily avoidable, that's the thing. All it needed is for someone to have had the common sense to say "no, we can't give players disciplinary points based on last season, that's ludicrous, let's just start 2025 with a clean slate". Players who fell foul of the disciplinary in 2024 have already had their cases dealt with and have served their punishment, so by now including points based on those cases, you are effectively going to be punishing a player twice for the same incident. I'm not even sure that would stand up to a legal challenge, if anyone's got the guts to do it.
