At the first International break one of my teams is leading after making a failed attemp at first the weekly, then the monthly prizes. Will be interesting to see how low that team finishes by the end of the season seeing that is has used 15 transfers already.

48 teams in the League overall and enough premium users to get the medal again this season for the winner.

Been a while since I posted an update. My teams are still going strong at the top, but as we all know there is still time for me to muck it up :^). Kevin Abbott and the Savage's seem to be fighting it out for the wooden spoon. Damir Vujevic is leading the starting XI with Lee Bowyer seemingly his only real challenger for that one.

Just the cup final to go. Looks like I might just hold on this season. . It's been a while since I won, 12 yrs (was quite shocked didn't realise it had been that long). Three former winners lining up behind me for the places. Can Alan hang on to 2nd or will Ryan or Lee pip him to the post. Guess we will find out Saturday night.

Brian looking good for the golden boot.

Would be nice if I can just hold on to my top 100 overall position, never managed to stay in the top 100 for the entire season with the same team before. Will be tricky though, only Smalling and Alonso in the final for me.

Final table and no shocks from the previous week. Richard Kellard won the league for the first time in 12 years . Alan Harris got the second spot with AJC29 and Ryan Morris the final podium spot with Morris Minors, giving Ryan a 5th consecutive top 3 finish. It's been a unusual season with RR5 getting of to a flier and staying there all season. I don't think that has ever happened before. Hopefully we will get a better contest next season.

RR 5 also won the golden boot. Lee Bowyer's Ghost Town had the best starting XI and Brian Cole's JIM BOWIE ME4 walked off with the wooden spoon.

Have a great summer and see some of you in the World Cup comp, if not next season.
