Pred'n Lg - final positions and play-offs by midnight Fri 6 Dec

[Jago]

Incredible.  Yes we are talking about Ozz (not Dagenham, though they did well too tbf).  Ozz was dead and buried three weeks ago but due to the collective incompetence of those above him has somehow finished in the top half after a WWW sequence.   Well done sir.  

Going the other way is UrchinYid – a nice safe 6th last week but relegated in 9th just a week later.  Some might say “how Spursy”, but that would just be cruel.  

As for Dinamo, for all his bluster about a “miracle escape” he of course fell at the last hurdle, albeit that hurdle coming in the not insignificant form of Colin.  Down he goes, along with Luke who, having dodged the bullet last season on a reprieve, can’t really have any complaints.  Though I’m sure he’ll think of something. 

And well done to Adrian whose casual approach “yeah, I’ll just turn up on the last weekend and all will be well” proved surprisingly successful.

In Div 2 the only question was who’d get that final play-off spot.  And here another miracle occurred, with Fat Tom winning his last two to squeak ahead of the unfortunate Mick The Bat who lost both his last two.  And at the top Nick slunk back ahead of MikeMike on goals scored to claim the Divisional title.  And its magnificent prize.

Finally I guess I should mention Baby Jago who has won his last 8 matches on the trot.  Shame he got just 2 points from the first 6 games really.  But he’s definitely the form guy coming into the play-offs.

Golden Boot – The Dummy Team
Lucky B@st@rd – Ozz; both for this week and, in fact, the entire season!

Onwards to the play-offs.

I think we should change the rules to, points first and then GD. I would've finished a comfortable 7th then 😉

Well you are right.  But back in the "good" old days (when this was a democracy) we had a vote on this after someone called "COYS 1961" complained about "being robbed of the title".   He lost!

Anyway all your cricket mates are now in Div 2 - maybe we should rename it the Salad Division 2.🤣

Old news.   Has been done ad nauseum.  Anyway, I'm pleased you did find something to complain about. 😁

Welcome both to the country bumpkin division.

As I'm used to saying being a Spurs fan.... "sh*t cup anyway...".
