Super Five League Sunday
As Season 15 draws to close, today we have five more leagues called and sad (albeit brief) farewell. So first the farewell...
I've had the priviledge of being on this team for the last nine seasons.... but at the close of this season, I will be stepping away from helping out. Given I've made it to the Premier, been relegated and now made it back again (next season)... Im calling my retirement "There and back again". It has been a pleasure to tell you all how good (or bad) you are going, but I need a break.
Now onto the important stuff...
League Winners
League 1, Average Rank: 2192, Runners: 9
After a bruising and seesawing Season, ‘Hermes’ aka sportsgod24 has managed to get the ball into the back of the net more times, more often than their opposition. The third seed entering the season has pushed through a fairly strong field and sealed the League Title with a 3-1 away win against ‘Lord of Your Ring’ who has also finished the season in the top three and gained access back to the Premier League. The last elusive Premier League spot is still up for grabs. DBandit70 had a season best forgotten and drops through the moon door, whilst Killerz999 was also relegated thanks to a poor goal differential.
League 5, Average Rank: 1907, Runners: 10
This was the league more affectionately known as the Baltic Crusades Cup, this season would be defined by the best Crusades player. The winner, coming from the tenth seed, ‘Pixies’ Nimrods Son, was a massive 430 points behind the average. They have snuck through for their second league title on goal difference. The eighth seed, marand, has taken out second spot. With the remaining positions still being figured out.
League 6, Average Rank: 1987, Runners:10
The honours go to the sixth seed, Handsomewhitecat. They played an absolutely massive season and swept away any home advantage their opposition had. They managed to finish with an AWAY record of 14-22 which is massive given the home advantage. The third seed, DJ1985 has secured second spot and ‘Slim’ Dusty21 takes out third spot in a tight finishing league.
League 17, Average Rank: 1815, Runners: 8
Taking out their maiden title, the seventh seed, rosseo, has managed the victory on their Classic home map. Although, the data shows they had more skill playing AWAY than at home. With three 4-0 destructions of the opposition it was always going to be difficult for the others. The placements for the other players may still alter a little, but their promotion and relegation is set. Lobstrosity and hjelp get the triple promo spots, mikehayes is taking a holiday in League 19 next season, and krolt drops to 18.
League 18, Average Rank: 1661, Runners:10
For a third title in a row, the second seed, PereiroSaus is moving through the lower leagues on a mission to challenge the top players. Coming into the season more than 800 points above the average, Pereiro made quick work of his opponents with 4 clean sweeps at home. The three triple league promo spots go to overlander, zeus066168 and General Roy. The double league jumps are secured by fletchers11, General Bax, Pedrospb and Colby*Club. Captain Mack left us during the season and was kicked, saving dorsettrob from the embarrassment of coming last.
There are some other leagues that could be called… but I better leave something for Craig to do next week
