Check out me coming up on the rails after breaking into the top 50,000

Binky's lot continue to perform and he's nicely placed nationally to boot. The top 5 remain clear whilst the Ledge leads the chasing pack. Marathon, not a sprint and all that!

...you're in my sights

Congrats to Binky. The top 100 has been broken (which was my season objective - TBA) and a very handsome lead established. The relegation battle looks exciting with 19-22 seperated by just 9 points. Unfortunately the bottom 2 teams look cut adrift and a miracle of West Brom/Ham proportions required to save themselves.

Drunken binky still deep in the top 100, hopefully with a few transfers up his sleeve to get involved at the business end. Striders moves 2nd but still a long way back whilst it's pretty much as you were for the rest. Some great scores knocking about towards the bottom of the league for Grassy Knoll Snipers (63) and Champions Utd (57).

Too many transfers left to use!!!

Well the fun looks to be in who will finish in the top 3 as Binky keeps plugging away in the top 100. 46 points between 2nd and 5th so wise use of transfers remaining could be key. At the foot of the table the battle for the spoon is hotting up with Autoselect reducing the arrears to 29 points having been over 50 adrift recently.

I am planning to keep hold of second and break into top 1000.

Neath Boy keeps hold of 2nd and so very nearly breaks the top 1000 mark as well. Looking a 2 horse race for 2nd spot barring a dramatic dowturn from Binky. A couple of big scores further down the table this week and some bonus games to be had tonight/tomorrow. I'm off to check my teams coverage.

Just the 1 week to go - 11 games and we are done for another season. Looks like the promotion places are pretty much sorted and our winner has been champion elect for some time now. Well done Binky (if you ever look at this thread).

The battle is on for second between myself and Neath Boy, just 5 points seperating us. Mixed feelings really as if my team does well, it means my 25's team probably won't!

Good luck this week to all and may the best team triumph NB!

And there you have it. Before we get into the proper important end of season stuff (c'mon you Irons), here lies the final table.

Congrats again to Binky who I know looks at this thread every now and then. Great job over the season and unlucky to just fall short of the top 5 overall. At least the Chairman's prize will soften the blow, a season us mere mortals can only dream of.

Neath Boy comfortably second and I settle for 3rd - hang on that may mean some cash!

Enjoy the Summer and I will see some of you next season in the Championship.
