Quite a close battle for the Title this year in Ricks Footy Challenge. Unlike the real competition where Leicester City romped home with a couple of weeks to spare. Got to say massive congrats to Leicester for their well deserved win.
Back to Ricks Footy Championship. With just the final week to go there was only one point between Lee Bowyer's Ghost Town and last years winner Ryan Morris' Morris Maple Leafs. The two final matches involving Manchester United decided it, Lee scoring 30 to Ryan's 18 Leaving Lee Bowyer as this years Champion! Leaving Ryan to take the runner up spot.
The 2014 winner Rob Beatty was 3rd.
Lee also took the Golden boot, with 118 goals. John Savage 2nd in that with 113.
Ryans 2nd placed team had the best starting XI, scoring 1643 pts and was an impressive 264th overall.
Simon Eales team Izzys Bees were placed second in that with 1534 pts
Wooden Spoon went to Ashley Stockton, who must have forgotten about this, as looks like he did no transfers all season. Must remind him next season.
