Califan Solidarity League wrote:Headlines from CSL headquarters in Ventura, Free South Califas:

Two CSL clubs in CC QF: That's right, CSL shocked itself and the whole world by running two of its top clubs all the way into the Champions' Cup quarterfinals. The adult sides for Calexico and Cleveland didn't progress far beyond that, but broke new ground for the CSL and surely hope to inspire new heights in the League. The children's side for Cleveland were especially inspirational in the Youth Cup.

UKC overtakes FSC: It's finally happened. The Royal Football Association has been ranked higher (43rd) than the Football Assembly of South Califas (50th). The other two associations still lag far behind them in UICA rankings.

Ten years of FSC football: CSL Season 6 will represent the Football Assembly's 10th year providing teams to an internationally-affiliated premier league.

Battle at the Barge: Two storied Polarian teams faced off at the Santa Cruz Island Memorial Barge, in the multi-county Channel Islands (FSC). The Barge is an efficient floating platform designed to minimize the physical impact of football tourism and related economic activity on the island directly, inspired by the Barge at Bjarnarey, a more perilous venue. The exciting match brought international attention to the Channel Islands franchise, which will hopefully recover from its precipitous fall through the CSL hierarcy, and from its terrible drubbing at the hands of Polar Islandstates' third squad in a friendly that was kind of depressing.

The Revolutionaries flourish: After being freed from inhumane treatment at the hands of government managers, all players--prisoners the lot of them--seem to have taken asylum in one of the other three CSL countries. Iacs and the coastal (non-war) half of FSC have been especially tantalizing to the Revolutionaries, perhaps due to the actual revolutions there. A successful year under Iacs delegate Shlomo ben Ramin saw them promoted to Series F. Mr. ben Ramin ran on a platform of further democratisation, and followed through by arranging an international private purchase of the club in a scheme which made the collective of players into the majority owner. Some benefactors were moved to cede their shares voluntarily after hearing of the horrible treatment these players underwent as imprisoned revolutionaries.

Fourteen clubs dismissed: To make room for the Communadi league, the fourteen worst CSL clubs were sent packing from the organised league as such. They may still participate in the Solidarity Cup, though they are not expected to get far.

Revolution in Iacs: After suffering under the weight of a lolterrorist slaveocracy for decades, Iacs sloughed off its political and economic hierarchy in one fell swoop as tens of thousands of protesters poured into the Ministry of Interiors. Revolutionaries elected delegates from among their own number, and these gave orders to the Army to turn its guns on the government and slavers. In one long, bloody month, Iacs executed thousands of slavers, political leaders of the ancien regime, racist organizers, and rapists, who were seen as functionally representing the same organisation. The new regime is classified by the WA Census as 'Democratic Socialist'.

Civil war drags on in South Califas: Cross-border attacks and organized military responses continue to dominate the news in FSC's far northeastern counties, Kern and San Bernardino. In a strange development for a country defined by its lack of central structure, the various and sundry militias active in the area and loyal to the status quo ante bellum voted to join together into one united army and air force. Still, there's an element of the Califan in this news: They agreed to disband soon after peace is achieved. Casualties are beginning to mount in Kern County, as Republican attacks have escalated into open shooting and bombing of human targets, while several Guerilla groups have broadened from occasionally targeting Republican leadership to launching full-scale assaults in support of the unified loyalist/socialist cause.

Rebellion in UKCNA fizzles out: After failing to hold any significant territory for more than a week or so at a time, the effort to split Central North America has seemingly melted into mere blood and frustration. Months of fighting have led to a war-weary nation, and an informal truce seems to be the current policy on both sides. Some have speculated that the rebel forces have dissolved into isolated and barely-functional militias, but their nominal spokespeople insist that the organization continues and that they still have a mandate to speak for the movement. Meanwhile, Molotov cocktail attacks at the capitals of several border states are thought to be unrelated, instead probably intended to support the Kill Capitalism Now movement that had largely restricted itself to publishing strongly worded critiques until the chaos of rebellion was apparently thought to offer an opportunity to escalate tactics.

Season 13 &14 - Branvun's domination

The Ko-orenite season has come to an end, and in the area of Greater Ko-oren, six out of seven leagues finished at the same time. Afterwards, only the finals of the GKC and GKCC and the Thaulandian season were to be played. Thaulandi, as the most autonomous of Ko-oren's colonies, has its own UICA affiliation, and will not be taken into account here.

First of all, this was the second year (and the third/fourth season) of the Apertura/Clausura system in Ko-oren. The language still lacks an own word for the two halves, so the original name still survived. Anyhow, what is one season in other nations, is two seasons in Ko-oren: one in the autumn, one in spring. At the end, the playoffs that take teams from both halves decide which teams qualify for the Champions' Cup, Globe Cup, Series B Champions' Cup, AOCL and Greater Ko-orenite Champions' Cup. It has to be said: not once before did one team dominate the league as much as Branvun did during this season. Overall, Maethoru is still the most successful team, but their quality has gone down and Branvun stood up. This season, they won both the Apertura and Clausura title, as well as the State Championship, and the GKCC (Greater Ko-oren Champions' Cup). Let's look at the season one tournament at a time:

State Championships
Ko-oren has 15 states. Before each season, the professional teams and usually some amateur teams meet in a 'friendly' single knock-out cup. 15 cups in all, one per state. This is seen as the first big thing of the season. While the cup itself is not worth much to the bigger teams and their players, smaller teams have a way to attract some attention early in the season, but the cup is also an early, good way to determine which teams might shine during a season. Some cups are more important than others: Arelothun and Othushun are the biggest, for the sheer number of teams in the competition, but Engbrothun and Maethoru also have some weight because of the strength of the teams that are from these states. The club Maethoru, as said, has not been doing well after they won three straight championships a few years ago. After their final four finish in the CC, they forgot to take the title the year after, and now they are not really doing well either. In the state cup, they are by far the biggest team from their state (also called Maethoru). The club lost in the first round, leaving Minato-shi as the next biggest club to pick up the pieces and win the cup (in the final against an amateur team!). Branvun had a better season start, winning their state's cup against rivals Engbrothun (sharing a city).

Meanwhile, in Arelothun and Othushun, states with a lot of clubs that all seem to stick somewhere mid-table, Hail and Othushun won. Hail is in the second division, and had a bright future because they were able to win the cup. Othushun hopes to finally escape mid-table and finish top 10 again like they always seemed to be able to. In other states, Ka Uin had its state cup won by an amateur team, Jeknolr (top-5 of top division) won their cup and Liju (from Othushun) disappointed. With this in mind, the Apertura started!

Apertura, KNL1
KNL1, the top division of Ko-oren, started with 20 teams, as always. Early on it was clear that Branvun were ready to win it after a bad season, and they soon were favorites for the title. After beating second placed Liju 4-1, they won another match 4-0 and had a 5 point margin. They remained uncontested, even after they suffered their first loss in match day 12 (!). Between this day and the 16th match day, the teams in 2nd through 5th kept losing points against one another, allowing Branvun to slip away with a 7 point lead. Only one day before the end, Branvun finally won the title, eventually with a 6 point lead and only 2 losses in 19 games. Maethoru did a bit better than expected, with a 3rd place, and Jeknolr in between. Liju, Tangku and Kthosl hoped to do better, and these six teams still made up the top six of the league. Going into the Clausura, these latter three teams had only one goal: finish at least third to secure a playoff spot for the Globe Cup. After all, Ko-oren still can send five teams to international competitions, though the risk of losing one of these spots is very much there...

Clausura, KNL1
The Clausura seemed a bit more balanced. Teams knew about the power of Branvun and of their place for this season, and after four days, no team rested on zero points. Branvun were the only team on 3-0 after three match days, too, but remained within reach. By match day five, however, Branvun already had a 5 point lead. Now other teams started to take some responsibility too, and especially Tangku did their best, winning 6-1 on the exact day Branvun suffered a loss. After this, they got a bit demotivated, dropping points in three consecutive games. Branvun and Tangku seemed to have to battle it out between themselves for the rest of the season, and Branvun only retook the first place four days from the end. In the end, they still built a 5 point gap, winning the Clausura, but Tangku stayed in second and Kthosl took third, leaving Liju as the only regular top-6 team to not win a playoff spot. Not a good record seeing as they won the Apertura last season.

GKC
Meanwhile, the massive Greater Ko-orenite Cup of all professional teams of the eight countries of Greater Ko-oren kicked off. Starting with just the third division teams, the competition rolled to less and less teams with some pace. Out of the last eight teams, four were Ko-orenite, which is the usual score. Branvun even was a part of this group, but they were beaten by Kangutsu. Kangutsu is another Ko-orenite team, one of the rare top division teams from the east, famed for their ability to somehow always remain in the KNL1. But that is not everything: cupfighting is their trade as well. Moving into the semifinals, they were the only Ko-orenite team not from the state of Arelothun, Ko-oren. Tangku and Norilya were there, as was the surprisingly strong Thaulandian team 8 Tower. After extra time, and after penalties, Kangutsu secured a spot in the finals against Tangku. Their fans must have thought of five seasons ago, the first time the GKC was held, which had Kangutsu win that (not their only prize: they also won the KNL2 two seasons ago, with Minato-shi in second. Both remain in the KNL1 until this day). Fate decided differently, and Tangku won the GKC with a 1-0 victory.

GKCC
With all competitions gone, all eight parts of Greater Ko-oren sent their champions to battle for the title of Champion of Champions. We know of the story of Branvun, but how did the other seven teams get here?

Arhoren
Arhoren has four football clubs, of which two are semiprofessional. These two play for the Arhoren Derby Cup, won by Arhoren Summer Red in the traditional best of 9 series between them and Arhoren Autumn Yellow. It was the second consecutive victory for the Reds, yet also their second total victory.

Irithoren
Irithoren has four clubs, of which two make it to a best of 5 playoff round. Apolon usually makes this round easily, with either Zewiru-Demeter or Ejura-Artemis in second. Poseidon traditionally finishes last (as they did again this season), but the difference in quality between the teams is not that big. Zewiru-Demeter was the luckiest of the two 'mid-table teams', and they even won the playoffs 3-1 (1 loss, then three consecutive wins)!

New Ko-oren
They have the second biggest league structure of the archipelago's. Not the best teams: Ko-oren, Thaulandi and Taloren are considered better, but football is popular over there, though the quality might not tell that story. Ladrau secured the championship on the last day of the 42-game season, celebrating their first ever title and their first ever GKCC spot!

Taloren
They have a few good teams of which one tends to get surprisingly far in the GKC. Not this season, but Minato was the best of the 16 teams and won the title. Four goals and no points ahead of Yama, they qualified! It was their second consecutive and second total qualification for the tournament, much like Summer Red. They have made finals before (GKC final), but never won (unlike the other Talorenno team, Hiro).

Zakhoren
Eight teams, 28 games per team. Polaris easily cruised to the title, five points ahead of the competition. These teams know each other through and through, so that made the 5-point gap so rare. There were only 14 points between the best and the worst!

As for the tournament itself: Branvun had the relatively easy opponent Arhoren Summer Red. Thaulandi's 8 Tower took on New Ko-oren's Ladrau and somehow lost (marking a new period for New Ko-orenite football?), and Minato from Taloren easily beat Svaedi, the only team and therefore most appearing GKCC team from Skyvinduryoren. Branvun took on Minato in the second round and again won 1-0, while Polaris won 2-1 after extra time against Ladrau. Some considered that the first of the two semifinals held much more quality than the second, but that is the way things work. Branvun finally won by more than one goal in the final: 2-0 against Polaris!

Next season
Insin, Laridju and Katrun promoted to the KNL1. Insin make their second appearance on this level, while the rest are new there. Branvun will defend their fantastic season, and there are five teams that want to decrown them: Maethoru, Jeknolr, Liju, Tangku and Kthosl. The Capitals, Viltsr and Minato-shi relegated, which is the third relegation for the Capitals and hold a record for that now. Alara and Mazaj finished in the top 10, and could they finally shake the label of newcomer for a label of talented team that will challenge the top 6? Ajongka hopes to continue growing from 7th to better, and Kol and Othushun hope that their fall now ends. In 8th and 12th in the Apertura, they did not do well. The remaining teams hope to not end up in any of the two leagues' last three (five different teams in the last six places of the Apertura and Clausura!)

DRAWING BATTLE-LINES

After ten matches, one player from each of the major Sabrefell sides departs; Gerhard Thunder finds an admittedly more fitting league at Astograth University, while Athletic’s right-back James Sleet leaves for Valladares. Rook Cathar’s debut as a starter leads to two goals. Goodfeather puts four past Elliot Cabriolet, establishing that Southfell’s good defensive record to this point was indeed a mere fluke, and other results go largely as expected.

A day of low scorelines. with six of the twelve games ending 1-0 and one of the twelve games ending 1-5. Rook Cathar has four goals from two games. South Laithland gets a clean sheet; Parrhesia is now the only team without one.

Several key fixtures today, North Laithland drawing with Maximum City being the most highly-billed and Sabrefell Athletic drawing with Franchise FC being by far the most surprising. In another key battle for the top, Sabrefell Moths took the first goal against Crisisbless, but the Chokers did one better in the second half to take the game and the points.

Another straightforward week, in which no team scored more than twice. Except the Moths, who scored six. Jesus christ. Also, Treason lost to the Hawks, to most people’s surprise.

Jason Canter is a really bad goalkeeper and Parrhesia cannot even get a clean sheet against Franchise FC. Or a win. Speaking of bad goalkeeping, the Corvette Maulers use Roy Hennessey against Rhagant and he does alright.

[b]UICA Contenders
One win in five puts Valkyrja back in their place, as no team seems to have a particularly good month; Athletic consolidating their good month with a less-than-inspiring three wins and one draw. Maximum is three points behind in second, and occasional stumbling by Treason, Crisisbless and the Moths leave them largely in Athletic’s wake.

The Best Of The Rest
A number of solid defensive performances give North Laithland a solid edge in seventh; Brinemouth have been extremely inconsistent, and lie two points behind. Maximum Rovers have had several solid performances to date, and Cranequin have shown themselves to be good at winning an edge. Violence has had five of every result, leading to a reasonably solid 11th place; AFC Integabad is in midtable, and increasingly reliant on captain Reinhard Bavaria.

Midtable Mediocrity
South Laithland, aided visibly by Flaccusmania, have done well, though their goal difference is abysmal; Damian Shrewe doesn’t seem as confident or consistent as he used to be. Parrhesia United have, as of yet, failed to keep a clean sheet; they’ve a good defence, but shored up by a nervy goalkeeper visibly out of his depth. Raven River and Iron City haven’t really been notable, though people have reason to feel they’ve under- and over-achieved respectively; River seem to benefit from Morant in defence, but they’re keenly missing Barry Kearney’s presence. Southfell have been underperforming badly, their strikers are dreadful and their defence isn’t as tight as in the first matches. Corvette, in 18th, have the leakiest defence in the league; they’ve conceded two goals for every game.

Relegation Material
Goodfeather FC have had an incredibly leaky defence, largely failing to give Barunian no. 1 Mic Willans the support he deserves; Brookford have been decidedly average as well, and have to be looking nervously over their shoulder. On eleven points, Rhagant has been cursed by a toothless offence, and Leopolis a poor defence, costing Hans Blauweiler his job; he’s been replaced by former Moths and North Laithland gaffer Dana Conlan. On ten points, Raging Fire and Franchise are both disgustingly bad.

While Iron United continue being incredibly hard to dislodge, it’s an old boys’ club close behind them, Rovers, Rage, Rochford and Rangers each having had recent spells in the Premiership. AFC Shale’s proving dangerous as well, with U-21 captain Tosca Marlowe anchoring the defence. 20th and safety is closely contested, but Fenland and Creed are looking very vulnerable..
Everyone still hates Leicard Crimewave, who are actually averaging slightly less than one goal per match now.

Stamper Road are the only team out of 72 not to attain double-digit points. Reckdale are four points and fifteen goal difference from safety, with West Shotgun having somehow pulled even in goals from three wins and seven losses. Cranequin, too, have pulled even; less impressive, perhaps, with eight wins and five losses. Rushe tops the league with a balanced, experienced squad.

THE CUP
The format’s been changed this year; the Conference gets to compete, giving a nice square-rootable number for proper quarter-, semi- and finals. Given that the Conference can employ amateur players, do not anticipate much success.

Explanation of Format
The League is divided into three divisions: Svenska, Danske, and Česky, each containing the teams of the cities most associated with that ethnic group. Overall, there are 50 teams, with 17 in the Svenska Division, 13 in the Danske Division, and 20 in the Česky Divize. After playing a double round robin within their divisions, there is the second phase of league play. The top four teams of each division qualify for Serie Top, which consists of another double round robin amongst the twelve teams there. The winner of Serie Top is league champion and qualifies for the Champions' Cup, while the second, third, and fourth place teams qualify for the Globe Cup. There is another post-Division series called Series B, which takes the next three teams from each division, i.e. those that finished in places 5-7. Like Serie Top, Serie B consists of a double round robin format. The top four teams qualify for the Series B Champions' Cup.

After Deportivo Nespa won the inagural LFS Primera Liga season with a nerve-wracking final minute goal to snatch the title from Real Cintore's grasps, 19 teams will try to dethrone them, including three new teams from the Campeonato. The subsequent UICA competitions at post-season was a disaster for all Sangtian clubs, while Cintore almost grabbed the Campionato Esportivano di Campeones at Sangti's national stadium, only to succumb to OE Penthesilea in extra time. But before the actual preview, let's look at the performances of current Sangtian top flight clubs in UICA and other competitions.

Deportivo Nespa (1st in LFS-PL)
Qualified to: Champions Cup 49 (UICA), Campionato Esportivano di Campeones (Esportiva)
Entry to round: First preliminary round (UICA), First round (Esportiva)
Because of the currently low stature the Sangtian League had, the league winners had to enter at the First Preliminary Round of the Competition, where they faced Kericia City of Kericia. The first leg in Kericia ended in disaster as La Isla was crushed with a 1-5 defeat. The return leg at the Estadio de Mil Islas proved a consolation draw, as Deportivo was sent to the Globe Cup second preliminary round, where they faced Urbanista of Apox. The first leg of that match ended in a 1-3 defeat. However the return leg prodiced a 1-1 draw, and with that, Deportivo Nespa crashes out of UICA Competitions.

The club also crashed out early in the CEdC, as they were eliminated in the first round to Prime Para United of Boring Paradise, 2-1.

Real Cintore (2nd in LFS-PL)
Qualified to: Globe Cup 46 (UICA), Campionato Esportivano di Campeones (Esportiva)
Entry to round: Third preliminary round (UICA), First round (Esportiva)
As the highest Globe Cup placer in the league, Los Verdes entered the competition at the third preliminary round, and were drawn against Westbay United of Saugeais. The first leg in Saugeais was a six-goal thriller, 3-3. With the draw, Cintore only had to draw 2-2 to advance, and that was what they did at Estadio de los Verdes Prados. A 0-0 draw sealed their passage to the playoff round where they met Turoki United of Vilita. The opening leg in Cintore was a disappointing 2-4 defeat, while Turoki United showed their class in their home leg in Turoki Island, crushing Los Verdes, 4-0 to send them crashing out of the competition.

In the Campionato Esportivano di Campeones, Los Verdes started their journey in the first round away to Quaoning Guoan of Chun-nan. A 1-0 win sent them to the second round where Argonauts AS of Ares-y-Penthesilea were waiting for them. Los Verdes showed their class at home, beating AyP's recent successful club 3-0. The next round pitted Los Verdes against Albaie Rangers, which they closely beat 3-2. They stayed home fot the quarterfinals against Montfort Wanderers of The Licentian Islands, winning in a 2-1 decision. In the semis, Gwinevra Barbarians was the victim of Los Verdes, with a 2-0 scoreline. However, they fell short against another club from Ares-y-Penthesilea, OE Penthesilea, 2-1 after extra time.

Real Tiagosan (3rd in LFS-PL) and CD Viocla (4th in LFS-PL)
Qualified to: Globe Cup 46 (UICA), Campionato Esportivano di Campeones (Esportiva)
Entry to round: First preliminary round (UICA), First round (Esportiva)
Los Aguilas and Los Bolas entered the Globe Cup in the First Preliminary round, but lost to Khinjar of Ibex and Westbay United of Saugeais, who was later beaten by Los Verdes, respectively.

In Esportivan Competitions, Real Tiagosan lost 6-7 in a penalty shootout against Nova Tunis of Taijan after a 2-2 scoreline after extra time. CD Viocla eliminated Bartholomew FC of Boring Paradise, 3-2 before losing in another shootout against another Taijani side Coco Bay Capitals 3-4, after regulation ended 1-1 after 120 minutes.

Girondins Tossan, Sangtiola Nandezfer and Ryne Savio (Top 3 of LFS-C, promoted to LFS-PL)
Qualified to: Series B Champions Cup 46 (UICA)
Entry to round: Third preliminary round for GTO, First preliminary round for the other two
The only 2 matches that the Tossan side played is against Cordubovica Falcons of Capitalizt SLANI, where they both lost at a score of 0-1. Ryne had an even worse time out there, losing 4-1 on aggregate against Lexington Firefoxes. Sangtiola meanwhile lost 4-3 to Outer Nestingham of Falcus.

League Preview
This is the first season of sponsorship of the league by water purifier company Aguas Rapidas. They have an exclusive six-season contract that runs from this season up until the seventh season. For this season, four Primera Liga teams will be relegated, and only two from the Campionato will be promoted, reducing the number of teams for next season to 18, and will be further reduced to 16 at the conclusion of next season. So the teams will have extra work to do if they want to remain in the top flight for next season.

Managerial Changes
Last season brought the end of Ovid Tisang's Gabelona job, after a dismal run last season that saw Gaba finish just 11th place in the table. He was replaced by a completely unknown manager Arden Labindalawa. Romie Flores' job was Racing Xinghua's manager only lasted a season, he was sacked after guiding the team to 9th place in the standings. Former manager Jerous Manalo took over for the Baoyam side looking to be Sangti's champions once more. CD Viocla lost its manager Jaime Faltado due to his appointment as Sangti manager. Cyril Litonjua steps up from his assitant role to take over for this season.

The Strugglers

The three promoted sides Girondins, Savio and Sangtiola were promoted to the Primera Liga for this season, but bookies are already predicting for them to go straight back to the Campeonato, given that four relegation spots will be filled up this season. It would be an extremely tough task for the managers of these clubs to stay up in the top flight. Also struggling might be Balompie, Jocolim and CF Vanie. They finished 14th, 16th and 15th respectively last season, and have lost some players to bigger clubs. Wanko escaped relegation last season, or should I say almost slipped to the drop zone, finishing 17th last season. They will also be struggling to survive.

Mid-table Mediocrity

These sides' situation may not be as dire as the clubs mentioned above, but they won't be headlining the league either in the near future: CF Rumasi, Carrubonieta, Real Rosavilla, Atletico Radi, Olympique, Saint Etudes and Gabelona. These sides will look for a mid-table finish, but will also look to delve into the transfer market for players soon enough. One surprising name in this list is Saint Etudes. After finishing 12th last season despite pundits ticketing them with a relegation candidate, some say that it is still a fluke and they can still go down.

UICA Spots

Ironically, Gabelona has a shot for a Globe Cup place if they finish fourth or better. That chance might evaporate if these sides perform well: Real Tiagosan, CD Viocla, Carbonel, Racing Xinghua. Racing Xinghua will look like to bounce back after their dismal season with the return of the former Sangti manager. Carbonel will also look like to avoid slipping the lead last season to Real Cintore and Deportivo Nespa.

Championship

Four sides have a legitimate claim to the trophy this season: Deportivo Nespa, Real Cintore, Racing Xinghua Baoyam and Carbonel Nuelma. The momentum will mostly come from Real Cintore though, as the highest ranked Sangtian club in UICA and their recently found success in the Campionato Esportivano di Campeones, finishing runners-up. However, the other three sides do have a chance, particularly Deportivo Nespa, who acquired former national great John Utanes and keeper Brian Cua from Rambo Pesgem and Real Tadofal respectively. Real Cintore though snagged Adrian Magcaleng and Christiann Sanchez among others to form a strong team. Can their investment pay divideds? Or can Carbonel prove that standing pat is the best way to win trophies? Let us see.

Fearless Predictions
Relegation: Ryne Savio, Girondins Tossan, Sangtiola Nanzedfer, FC Jocolim
Globe Cup Spots: Deportivo Nespa, Racong Xinghua Baoyam, Carbonel Nuelma
Champions: Real Cintore

Acedonian Cup

Play-In Round
The team listed first is at home in the score listed first.

Pandas  0-3 Walruses 0-2 0-1
Geckos  3-2 Owls     2-1 1-1
Hippos  6-4 Turkeys  3-0 3-4
Parrots 3-1 Dolphins 3-1 0-0

The inaugural edition of the Acedonian Cup commenced with a round that was largely devoid of any significant upsets. The 8 clubs from the Acedonian Second Division played for spots in the Round of 16. The 8 teams from the Acedonian Second Division were randomly drawn. This random draw led to a matchup between the Parrots and Dolphins, both among the favorites to earn promotion to the Acedonian Premier League this season. The Parrots defeated the Dolphins 3-1 in their home match before both teams played to a scoreless draw in the second leg. The Geckos, Hippos and Walruses all won as expected. All 4 teams advanced to face the 12 seeded clubs from the Acedonian Premier League.

Round of 16
The team listed first is at home in the score listed first.

Vultures       3-1  Walruses  3-1 0-0
Warriors       5-3  Zebras    3-2 2-1
Legion         7-10 Falcons   5-3 2-7
Parrots        3-6  Wolves    1-2 2-4
Free Republics 5-3  Lions     3-1 2-3
Bears          3-0  Hippos    3-0 0-0
Ravens         7-4  Cardinals 4-2 3-2
Rhinos         1-2  Geckos    0-2 1-0

For the first time in the history of the Acedonian Cup, the Round of 16 featured a major upset. The Geckos defeated the Rhinos 2 goals to nil on the road. Although they would lose their home leg, the Geckos still held on for a 2 goals to 1 aggregate victory. Last season, the Rhinos came within a point of winning the Acedonian Premier League. Following their shocking upset of last season's runners-up, the Geckos now have to face the Ravens in the quarters. The Ravens won the Second Division last season. Following a spending spree this past off-season, the Ravens are expected to contend immediately for the Premier League title. Meanwhile, the Bears, another formidable team, will face the Free Republics in the quarters. The bottom half of the bracket looks to be the more intriguing half at this point.

Quarterfinals
The team listed first is at home in the score listed first.

Warriors 5-5 Vultures       2-1 3-4
Falcons  8-5 Wolves         3-3 5-2
Bears    0-3 Free Republics 0-1 0-2
Geckos   0-5 Ravens         0-4 0-1

The quarterfinals of the inaugural Acedonian Cup produced another shocker of a result as the Warriors defeated the Vultures on away goals to advance to the semis. Last season, the Warriors finished 9th in the then-10 team Acedonian Premier League. The Warriors would win the first leg 2 goals to 1 at home. The second leg turned out to be a shootout, as the Warriors scored a goal in extra time to cut their 4 goals to 2 deficit to 4 goals to 3. That wold be sufficient to gain advancement to the semis of the Cup. The Free Republics defeated the Bears and the Ravens defeated the Geckos to set up a semi between the 2 teams that are now favored to win the Cup. The Warriors and Falcons will play for the other spot in the finals.

Semifinals
The team listed first is at home in the score listed first.

Falcons 6-8 Warriors       4-4 2-4
Ravens  7-3 Free Republics 5-2 2-1

The Warriors pulled off another surprising upset in the semifinals of the Acedonian Cup. The first leg, a home leg for the Falcons, resulted in a 4-4 draw. The Warriors would pull off a 4 goals to 2 upset in the second leg, advancing to the finals. Meanwhile, the Ravens defeated the Free Republics twice. While Rule Theriault may not have put his strongest side forward for those matches, this is still a huge victory for the Ravens, who are the prohibitive favorites in the Acedonian Cup Finals.

Finals
The team listed first is at home in the score listed first.

Warriors 0-0 Ravens 0-0 0-0

The Ravens and the Warriors played a 2-legged home-and-away final. Neither team scored a goal in either leg. This set up a neutral site final, with extra time and penalties if neither team picked up a victory. The winner of that match would be the champion of the first Acedonian Cup and would earn a berth in the Cygnus Cup.

Final Replay

Ravens 4–3 Warriors

The Final Replay proved to be one of the most exciting matches in the history of the Acedonian league system. The Ravens jumped out to an early 2 goals to nil lead. However, the Warriors came back and tied the match up right before the half. Shortly after halftime, the Warriors took the lead. In the 81st minute, the Ravens scored an equalizer to make it 3 goals to 3. They would score the winning goal in the 90th minute as the Ravens won 4 goals to 3 and earned a berth in this year's Cygnus Cup.

Overall, we saw Alle wrap up the GAPL title comfortably, but there was a race for UCIA qualification, with powerhouse FK and surprise Gruenwalder taking the last two spots. The Badgers of Swillburg United narrowly missed out, with just 1 win behind Gruenwalder. Suprisingly, Kaltstadt Blizzards FC, who has seen recent success in international play, failed to qualify, ending up all the way down in 7th. They are now pulled out of the Federation Club Cup I because they failed to qualify.

The first 10 days of the APL season saw the Free Republics and the Ravens pull out into the lead. Both of these clubs won 7 matches and drew 3 in their first 10. The Rhinos continued to overachieve, winning 7 matches, drawing 1 and losing just 2 in the first 10. The Vultures, last year's champions are off to a slower than expected start, being in 4th place after the first 10. Despite a lack of goalscoring, the strong Bears defensive play puts them in 5th. The Legion are, once again, in the relegation spot. Should they finish there this season, Commissioner Achillios Kenteris has guaranteed that they will actually be relegated to the Second Division. According to the Commish, any potential expansion of the Acedonian league system next year would involve expanding the Second Division.

The second set of 10 matchdays saw the Ravens pull away from the pack and the Free Republics go into a serious swoon. The Ravens now sit atop of the Acedonian Premier League at 16-3-1 with the Rhinos 6 points back at 13-3-4. Somehow, the Rhinos have continued their overachieving ways for a second consecutive season in the Acedonian Premier League. The Vultures come up third, with the Bears in 4th position. The Free Republics has lost 7 of their last 10 matches and has only 5 points from 2 wins and a draw over that time frame. Their woes were a result of playing their B team during much of this stretch. The A team had to compete in international competitions. The Free Republics National Team is not exactly dominating the APL, but a large number of the players in the APL are more experienced players from the Free Republics. The Legion remain headed toward relegation, as they are now 5 points behind the 11th placed Warriors.

The Acedonian Premier League is now more than halfway to its conclusion. The Ravens remain well on their way to a championship in their first year after promotion. Meanwhile, the Vultures have overtaken the Rhinos for the second position in the APL standings. The Free Republics are also back in UICA qualification position, although they are just barely ahead of the Bears. It is now mathematically impossible for the Cardinals, Zebras, Warriors or Legion to win the APL this season. While the Ravens have a massive 7 point advantage on the second place Vultures, the Legion are 8 points behind the 11th place Warriors and 28 points behind the Free Republics for the final UICA berth. The mathematical elimination of the Legion from UICA contention is inevitable. However, there is a very close race for the final UICA berth involving the Free Republics, Bears, Wolves, Falcons and Lions. Those 5 teams are separated by a mere 4 points in the standings. While it has already been a disappointing season for Rule Theriault's side, failing to qualify for UICA would be embarrassing. Theriault has never been a successful club manager and his teams have a tendency to struggle in lengthy groups, as we found out in the last World Cup.

As the second UICA-affiliated season of the Acedonian Premier League wound down, the champions and the relegated team were already decided. The only thing still up for grabs at this point were the 3 berths in the Globe Cup. The Free Republics had overtaken the Rhinos for third place and had put up 20 wins, 10 draws and 10 defeats in 40 matches this season. However, they were still 5 points behind the second placed Vultures with 4 matches to go. The Vultures were 8 points ahead of the Bears and would guarantee themselves a UICA berth with a draw or win against the Bears on Matchday 41. Meanwhile, the Legion had once again earned relegation to the Second Division and Commissioner Achillios Kenteris once again reassured fans that the Legion would not receive another reprieve from relegation under any circumstances. Rather than grant them a reprieve, the Commish had stated that he would, if necessary for some reason, allow an additional team from the Second Division to earn promotion.

The second UICA-affiliated season of the Acedonian Premier League saw a dramatic increase in goal scoring over the previous season, due to the addition of 2 additional offensive-minded clubs to the league. While the Vultures led the APL with 71 goals in 36 games last year, this year 6 teams exceeded that total in a season that was just 8 matches longer than the previous season. Despite all of that, the Bears were still able to allow just 32 goals in 44 matches, running away with the league lead in goals allowed. The Bears had allowed 27 goals in the first season of the APL. The problem for the Bears was their anemic offense, which netted just 53 goals all season. With the Bears and Rhinos tied at 53 points as the season concluded, the final UICA spot was determined on the basis of head-to-head results. On Matchday 4, the Rhinos had defeated the Bears 2 goals to nil. On Matchday 15, the teams sides had played to a scoreless draw. On Matchday 26, the Rhinos again defeated the Bears, this time 1 goal to nil. Finally, the Bears picked up a 1 to nil victory over the Rhinos on Matchday 37. With 3 head-to-head matches having resulted in a victory for one team or the other and with the Rhinos winning 2 out of 3 of those matches, the Rhinos finish 4th and qualify for UICA on the basis of the head-to-head tiebreaker. On the final day of the season, the Free Republics defeated the Cardinals 2 goals to nil to earn 2 points. Had they been defeated, both the Rhinos and Bears would have qualified for UICA at the expense of Rule Theriault's Republicans. Had that match ended in a draw, the Republicans would have advanced as they won 4, drew 1 and lost 3 against the Bears and Rhinos. The Rhinos and Bears both had 3-way HTHs of 3 wins, a draw and 4 defeats, so a Republican draw with the Cardinals would not have made any difference. The Ravens finished with 71 points, winning 33, drawing 5 and losing 6 times. They scored a league-leading 118 goals and allowed just 61 goals, for the third fewest goals allowed in the APL this season. Meanwhile, the Free Republics finished 9th in fewest goals allowed, conceding 85. Only the Warriors, Zebras and Legion, all of whom conceded triple digits, allowed more goals than the FFR. Remarkably, the Legion finished with fewer points this season than last season. They won 4, drew 7 and lost 33 this year after going 6-6-24 last year. Therefore, they finished with just 15 points, fewer than their total of 18 a year ago. They are now headed toward the second division. The Rhinos finished second in goals allowed, conceding just 48 goals while scoring 74. Although that was just an average total in this year's APL, it was enough to make it into UICA, when combined with strong defensive play.

The first 7 matchdays of the Acedonian Second League, newly affiliated with UICA's Series-B Champions Cup saw the Hippos unexpectedly take the lead. The Hippos won 6 out of their first 7 matches, scoring a league leading 24 goals. While the Dolphins scored 17 goals in their first 7 matches, nobody else scored more than 11. The Turkeys were the only team still winless after 7, having just a draw to show for their first 7 matches. This put them 3 points behind the Owls and Pandas, in last place. Only the Second Division champions would be promoted to the Premier League next season, barring something unexpected and the Commissioner had guaranteed that the team that finished last in the second division would be relegated. An unspecified number of teams, either new clubs or Third Division clubs, would gain promotion into the Second Division next season. The Commish had announced that he had yet to determine the format of the Second Division for next year, but he said that he was strongly considering expansion of some sort.

The Acedonian Second Division had now completed a third of its season. After a strong start, the Hippos have now gone into a slump, picking up just 3 points in their last 7 matches. The Dolphins now lead the Second Division, with the Parrots a close second. The Walruses, favored to gain promotion prior to the start of the season, are leading the lead in fewest goals allowed, but their anemic goal scoring (tied for 7th) has relegated them to the middle of the table so far. The Turkeys have just a single point and have now lost 9 consecutive matches. Trailing the Owls by 9 points in the standings, the Turkeys already appear destined for relegation.

At the mid-way point in the Acedonian Second Division season, the Dolphins remain atop the table with 34 points, having won 16, drawn 2 and lost 3 so far. The 15-2-4 Parrots are 2 points back with 32 points. The Walruses and Geckos have 25 and 24 points respectively. There is already a 6 point gap between 4th and 5th, which means that the Series-B Champions Cup places for the current top 4 appear relatively secure. The Turkeys picked up a victory on Matchday 15 and proceeded to go on another 6 match, and counting, losing streak. They are now 13 points out of 7th place and appear likely to clinch relegation fairly early on. The Walruses lead the league, having allowed just 14 goals, but their offense is absolutely atrocious. The Walruses have actually scored 1 fewer goal than the inept Turkeys, who are just as bad defensively as they are offensively. This season already seems anticlimactic at the mid-season point.

After two thirds of the Acedonian Second Division season, the Dolphins remain in the lead, but by just a point over the Parrots. There are now 10 points separating the 4th place Geckos and the 5th place Pandas with just 14 matches to go, so it looks like the only drama in the Second Division this season is the promotion race between the Dolphins and the Parrots. The Parrots defeated the Dolphins in the Play-In Round of the inaugural Acedonian Cup 3 goals to 1 on aggregate. With the race as tight as it is, it is very possible that promotion to the Acedonian Premier League could come down to the final day of the season's match between the Dolphins and the Parrots.

With a week to go in the Acedonian Second Division season, the Dolphins and Parrots have already clinched berths in the Series-B Champions Cup. The Dolphins clinched with a victory over the Walruses on Matchday 34 while the Parrots clinched after playing the Dolphins to a draw on Matchday 35. Meanwhile, the Turkeys have clinched relegation, following 7 consecutive defeats. The Turkeys have just 6 points through 35 matches and have lost a remarkable total of 31 matches. They have the fewest goals scored (42) and the most goals allowed (95) in the Second Division this season. Coming into the final week of the season, the 4th place Geckos lead the Pandas by 7 points, so it is seemingly just a matter of time before the Walruses and Geckos clinch berths in the Series-B Champions Cup. The only real drama in the final week of the season is the chase for the Second Division Championship and promotion to the Acedonian Premier League. The Dolphins host the Parrots on the final day of the season.

In the end, the Turkeys would lose 12 matches in a row before picking up a victory over the Pandas and a draw with the Hippos in their final 2 matches in the Acedonian Second Division. Even the match between the Dolphins and Parrots proved anticlimactic, as the Dolphins clinched promotion on Matchday 41, with a scoreless draw against the Walruses. The Parrots were defeated 1 goal to nil on that day by the Hippos. In the end, the Dolphins finished with 62 points, winning 25, drawing 12 and losing 5. The Parrots went 24-9-9, finishing with 57 points. The Walruses finished 23-7-12 for a total of 53 points. The Geckos went 19-10-13 to finish at 48 points. The Hippos and Pandas ended up tied with 5th and 6th with the Owls just a point behind them. Despite the 3 farewell points for the Turkeys, they finished 26 points behind 7th place. The gap between the 7th place Owls and the Second Division champion Dolphins was just 27 points.

The new season of Albaie football kicked off with the Dubrack's Shield with the winners of the Imperial Bank Premier League and the Albaie Cup play each other for the prestigious cup. Due to Dubrack's Town Celtic winning both last season they play the runners up in the Albaie Cup their bitter across town rivals Albaie Rangers.

Dubrack's Town Celtic 4 - 1 Albaie Rangers

The game played at the Dubrack's Town Imperial Stadium has shown us some delights for the next season and with new Dubrack's Town Celtic man Elecki Queb a recent transfer from Advar United getting his debut and the only one this season for both teams who will be fielding the same squads except for a few new youth players. A master piece from Tererent in the first half bagging a brace while Albaie Ranger's Kewer got their only goal and then in the second half Elecki Queb came on and the Advar born Albaie international bagged the second brace of the game to see William Dubrack Dubrackson and Count Vincent Deberen lifting the Dubrack's Shield yet again.
.
Now lets look back on the league's seasons. It was an interesting season after Albaie's national team played some excellent football at both the World Cup qualifiers and the Campionato Esportiva and Dubrack's Town Celtic and Ruten Bridge Castle's played some amazing football at the International Firestorm Cup with both teams getting to the last 16 where they unfortunately played each other with Ruten Bridge Castle getting to the next round before they themselves were knocked out. There were very little transfers from the big clubs but one was huge as the recently promoted Advar United let go of its best played Elecki Queb the first Advar to ever play for Albaie who impressed Count Deberen in the internationals and then he bought him for Dubrack's Town Celtic. Now onto the look at the final league table.

Yet again the all dominant Dubrack's Town Celtic lifted the Imperial Bank Premier League but on the thinnest margins yet only winning on goal difference to Ruten Bridge Castle. Albaie Rangers had another poor season and many are saying that their time has past and now it is Ruten Bridge Castle's turn to fight it out. Maras Wolfs and Indis Lions are the two teams set for relegation with both teams having shocking seasons. Abia Wolfs who last year provided the nations last team in the regional tournament had a very bad season and were almost relegated themselves.

Now for our look at the Abia Power Championship. The Abia Power Championship was renamed this year from the Imperial Loggers Championship to its new name after Abia Power purchased the sponsorship rights from the FA and also Imperial Broadcasting were challenged for the TV rights in the league for the first time as Empire Wide TV put in a new bid for the rights to the Championship after acquiring the rights to the Premier League last season and amidst protests from the IBC the FA decided to grant EWTV the rights to just under a quarter of the games of both Championship and Premier League. Now for our look at the season.

AFC Whitecastle and High Hill Orient have a storming season that see the two of them going into the Premier League where AFC Whitecastle will be able to play its long time rival AFC Blackcastle once again in the second most talked about derby in Albaie. Ruten City and Navy FC and Emperors Bridge and Ruten Rangers all had atrocious seasons with the two relegated last season the Ruten teams couldn't follow up the team from down the road Ruten Bridge Castle and the two following the collapse of both teams finances plummeted where most teams are expected to rise back up while Navy FC once again saw an atrocious season due in part to being run by the Imperial Navy and all players being serving naval personnel.

The Albaie Cup the second most prestigious tournament in Albaie following quick on the heels of the Premier League. This season in the final we saw yet again Dubrack's Town Celtic as they always were appearing and in a almost fairy tale story AFC Whitecastle with both teams looking to win their league and the national cup. AFC Whitecastle were only in the final due to some close wins against both Ruten Bridge Castle and Albaie Rangers while Dubrack's Town Celtic brushed through their competitors like the raging bull of Albaie football but with the grace and elegance of the way they play on a football pitch. The game was played on a glorious day at the Dubrack's Town Imperial Stadium where Count Vincent Deberen looked to put another trophy into the already full trophy room at the stadium which housed Dubrack's Town Celtic on a weekly basis.

Dubrack's Town Celtic 4 - 1 AFC Whitecastle

Yet again Dubrack's Town Celtic won the Albaie Cup with William Dubrack Dubrackson and the whole team commemorating it to Sir Alex McCourt KIO who was posthumously given a knighthood of the Imperial Order after the International Firestorm Cup where he committed suicide following the team's loss to Ruten Bridge Castle and an ongoing struggle with mental illness. Following this game Dubrack's Town Celtic and AFC Whitecastle will play again in the Dubrack's Shield before the beginning of the next season.

The Emperor's Shield played as the last competitive game of the season could either herald complete dominance of football with Dubrack's Town Celtic who reached their fifth final in as many years or Ruten Bridge Castle showing that one team didn't control Albaie's professional football. On the last ever game of football played competitively at professional level in Albaie the team that had dominated so much of the football that season played the up and coming power in a game that would decide how the game looked to outside viewers would they see a team that had won everything possible or one that had just won the cup and the league.

Dubrack's Town Celtic 3 - 0 Ruten Bridge Castle

Deberen and Dubrack Dubrackson lifted the quadruple after the game in which Elecki Queb scored his first hat trick for the club in a game in which immortalized the season a dominating performance from Dubrack's Town Celtic in which no one could hold back the Advar born player who brushed aside defences in his pursuit of goals.

Elecki Queb wins Deberen Sword the trophy for the most goals scored with his impressive total of 26 goals in a season where he scored more goals then there were games and in which he solidified his place as first choice striker at international and domestic level while only 17.
Edward Wood wins Dubrack's Shield for the least goals conceded as a goalkeeper with only 23 goals conceeded amongst the goalkeepers that made the most appearances.
Elecki Queb takes both Albaie Football Association Youth Player of The Season and Albaie Football Association Player of The Season following his amazing season for Dubrack's Town Celtic.

Last Season Finish:19th
Team InfoOne spot better than in the previous season and 1093 has managed the unthinkable. Not only did they win the three way Battle for Atlantea, but they managed to do it in quite a style. The team continues to show a promising nature, and as it matures the hopes of the fans continue to rest on the young players.

AC Quarant Xa’virt

Ground:Quarant Xa’virt Sphark Stadium 200,000
Manager:Arin Flitin
Colors:Cyan, and Yellow

Nickname(s):Athleticos
Offseason Moves:None
Last Season Finish:1st Erste Liga
Team InfoWith a remarkable season the incredibly young team from Quarant Xa’virt managed to not only win promotion but they managed to win the division. Which is saying a lot considering the talented side from Knightspurs, but overall the mark of this team will be if they stay around the top division for any period of time.

Atlantea Hurricanes

Ground:Atlantea Coliseum 590,000
Manager:Alexander White
Colors:Blue and Green
Fan Support:Very High
Expectations:Compete for Globe Cup spot

Last Season Finish:14th
Team InfoA rather down year for the Hurricanes in which they didn’t even manage to finish the season in the top half. They did manage to get another year on a bunch of young players so perhaps that might be the best thing to come out of the season.

Bayern Phoenix

Ground:Old Club Stadium 77,000
Manager:Duncan Kanchlskis
Colors:Red and Blue
Fan Support:Very High
Expectations:Compete for the Championship
Starters:Glee, Fontaine, Styles, Federov, Keith-Tyne**, Austin, Juniper, Ying Uing, Pato*, Fabian**, Scott

Offseason Moves:Signed CAM Saugeain Maximilien Fabian, and bought RB Edward Keith-Tyne from the Strondest in Northern Sunrise Islands.
Championships:24, 25, 27, 28, 29
Last Season Finish:11th
Team InfoIt was a down year for the team, even with the early thoughts that the added force of longtime national teamer, and brilliant player Gwyn Juniper to the squad. That said he is getting old and the Phoenix decided to bring in some young players this season to liven up the play. Early hope has been put behind a young Saugeain central midfielder Fabian, who could definitely be the one to spark a return to the elites of the league.

Bayern-Algaer

Ground:Bayern Stadium 24,000
Manager:Vladimir Okra
Colors:Red and Black
Fan Support:High
Expectations:Win League, Top Rivals Bayern Phoenix

Offseason Moves:Bought Bebeto from Botafogo Northern Sunrise islands.
Championships:17, 22, 23, 31
Last Season Finish:2nd
Team InfoA rather great season from the Weavers last year. Now they need to push for more and go for the title. With a recent addition of young Sunrisian Midfielder Bebeto the team will look to add some foreign flair to their offense.

Blacklake Blues

Ground:Blacklake Blues Ballpark 79,000
Manager:Karl Ash
Colors:Blue and Green
Fan Support:Medium
Expectations:Compete for Globe Cup Spot
Starters:Voorheis, Foxtrot, Fielder, Latrine, Saltzer, Mohammed**, Conrad, Kafka**, Reich, McLane, Everdeen

Sponsor:Blacklake Brewery
Nickname(s):Blues
Offseason Moves:None
Championships:
Last Season Finish:9th
Team InfoAnother solid top half season from Blacklake and they managed a rather par 9th place for the second season in a row. A lot of good players ply their trade for them so hopefully they continue to have pretty nice performances.

Capetown Croc’s

Ground:Capetown Stadium 34,000
Manager:Anyell Petrius
Colors:Black and Green
Fan Support:Medium
Expectations:Avoid Relegation

Nickname(s):Croc’s, The Ancients
Offseason Moves:Bought LM Kyle Barker from Docktown Deathdogs and bought Cody Brahms from Yaton FC.
Last Season Finish:3rd in Erste Liga
Team InfoBack from the dead it seems for Capetown. After a few years lounging around in the second division the Croc’s have had a spurt of effort and have made it back up to the Premier League, they also managed to be the first team to win a playoff promotion game to the Premier League in years.

Nickname(s):Flight, Flyers
Offseason Moves:Bought RB Randy Tweed from Docktown Deathdogs, Bought CF Adam Bradley from Al Haxire and bought LM Fred Jennings from Sparta F.C.
Championships:
Last Season Finish:3rd
Team InfoIt was perhaps the greatest season in Fadron history, qualifying for international play, getting so close to a champions’ cup and perhaps even a league title. This upcoming season will be different. A lot of new young players in the midfield. Defense can’t score all the goals so expect a downturn for last season’s third place team.

Knightspurs

Ground:The Dome 92,300
Manager:Konar Sanchez
Colors:Purple and Powder Blue

Nickname(s):Spurs, Knights
Offseason Moves:None
Last Season Finish:2nd Erste Liga
Team InfoAnd they are back. As expected making their triumphant return after only a season in the second division is everybody’s favorite team with light blue on them. Instead of looking to put their losses behind them the team spent money and brought in a cache of youngsters to help them back to the premier league and so far its worked. Now only if they can stay in the top division for a while.

Laketown F.C.

Ground:Laketown Football Stadium (70,000)
Manager:Mark Knox

Championships:
Last Season Finish:18th
Team InfoIt was another rather middle of the road season from the second team from Laketown, but with a strong core returning and newly acquired Saugeain national Yancy Walsh in goal the Crosses might yet have a chance.

Laketown Rangers

Ground:Stadium on the Lake 90,000
Manager:Matteus Sigurdsson

Offseason Moves:Bought RB Gavin Warrener from SK Nethers United FC.
Championships:30, 33, 34, 35
Last Season Finish:6th
Team Info It wasn’t the most impressive of seasons from Laketown but overall the team has managed a rather good run of play. Now they still have the players to go after a title with only one big switch on defense over the offseason, now to see what they can do in this upcoming season.

Los Riosa Monstas

Ground:Gangsters Park 99,000

Nickname(s):Monstas, Gangstas
Offseason Moves:
Championships:16
Last Season Finish:21st
Team InfoAnother down year for Los Riosa. It’s a wonder that they have still managed to keep their pristine record as one of the few teams never to be relegated from the premier league. That continuance continues to get closer to being ended as each season it looks more and more like they will fall.

Mierton Manatees

Ground:Mierton Area Park

Offseason Moves:Bought CF Marshall Murgatroyd from SK Nethers, bought Robbie Kurtz from Sparta F.C., and bought LM Drake Oliverry from Ying Jing Yankees.
Championships:37,38
Last Season Finish:8th
Team InfoIt was rather a coming down to earth experience for the mighty Moresville team last season. After two straight seasons on top they didn’t even manage to make it to the Globe Cup last season. With a few offseason changes they hope to right the ship and go back to the top of the league.

Mt Ceabring Thunder

Real Atlantea

Nickname(s):The Shepherds
Offseason Moves:Bought GK Joan Raguzzelli from Koloko in Farfadillis and CF Ashley Dee from Sparta F.C.
Championships:
Last Season Finish:5th
Team InfoIt was the best season in Real Atlantea history. They may not have won the Atlantean series, heck even the Hurricanes didn’t even win the league. It was a success overall for them, and now with a new keeper and a good young center forward they may be able to continue to fly higher than they ever have before.

Real Chinchinhua

Championships:18,19
Last Season Finish:12th
Team InfoIt was sort of s slump year for Real Chinchinhua. It wasn’t the greatest but they seemed to pick up the pace a lot in the second half. It looks like they may have a chance in this upcoming season at least.

Championships:Bought CM Patricia Walken from SK Nethers.
Last Season Finish:10th
Team InfoAnother team that has had their greatest season in team history, early season play had them looking to make an international play run, but in the end they faded as many expected. The real test of this team will be if they cannot fade this season and possibly complete their previous season’s run.

Taeshan City Miners

Offseason Moves:Bought CF Paul Montenegro from Yaton FC.
Championships:14
Last Season Finish:4th
Team InfoWhat do you do the season after your best finish since the year after you return to the premier league? Well if you’re X Island you watch as half your team retires in the offseason and you are forced to buy half of the bench players from the Antoletian international team. Not only have you bargain basement bought some future Antoletian stars, but you have also in one step managed to aggravate all of your fans, put your teams premier league spot in jeopardy, and pushed 2 16 year olds and an 18 year old into a big club’s starting lineup. We call foul. But we will see how it works out, won’t we?

FIGHTING FOR STABILITY

After sixteen matches and effectively dropping their first keeper, Jason Canter, Parrhesia finally gets a clean sheet under the young but talented guidance of number 30, Asger Thrace. South Laithland are mercilessly put to the axe, 4-0, with a Rudi Blake hattrick; Griff Reynolds guides Franchise FC to a five-all draw with the Rovers, boasting three goals of his own. Brinemouth stumble yet again in their pursuit of glory, Iron City holding them 1-1; Maximum City, Crisisbless, both Sabrefell sides and Treason were also victims of stalemate, leading to a rather choked feeling at the top of the table.

South Laithland really like losing 4-0, the Moths pulverising them this time. Maximum City defeat Crisisbless quite easily at home, Treason make rather a meal of beating Rhagant and Southfell put another four past Sabrefell Athletic. Meanwhile, in an important clash for the bottom of the table, Leopolis find Franchise no challenge at all, winning four goals to one at the Stadium of Sweat.

The Sabrefell Derby is today! Two of them, in fact. In the slightly less important one, Southfell continues their scoring spree to defeat River 3-1; in the other, goals from Rook Cathar and James Macbeth sealed Athletic’s fate. Iron City secures another scalp, edging out Crisisbless 1-0.

Asger Thrace decides he likes clean sheets so much he decides to get another one; two in four isn’t bad. Two in nineteen... but two in four isn’t bad. While Treason asserts themselves with a resounding victory over North Laithland, another Sabrefell derby leaves the Moths and River deadlocked 1-1 at Rookridge. While the Smiths prove toothless against Violence, their Rover rivals defeat the floundering Hawks 3-0. Crisisbless, fittingly, continue to choke on a decent position with a 2-0 defeat at Goodfeather.

In a clash of high hopes and solid defences, Maximum City puts two past James Turnscrew in the first half, but Treason fights back to level the scores by full time. Crisisbless lose again. In the Laith derby, Southron misery continues as goals from Conway and Sedgwick seal their fate.

Crisisbless are shut out again. While Maximum City struggle once again, losing 1-0 at home to South Laithland, the Rovers hold the Moths to an honourable draw. Treason makes short work of Iron City, scoring four times without concession. Meanwhile, at the bottom of the table, a vital win for Brookford, Rachael Copper and Delicious Johnson combining for the three points.

An uneventful week, though the pick of the month is Leopolis’ 3-2 triumph over the Moths; also remarkable is the rebirth of Flaccusmania, the Saintlander managing one goal and two assists in the three-nil demolition of Iron City. Oh. And Crisisbless didn’t score. Again.

No wins, or even goals, in seven matches for hapless Crisisbless, this time mowed down by an efficient Treason. UICA is almost definitely beyond them now. Another loss for the Moths, though victory is within reach for them still; Athletic win to stay within three points of the defensive champions.

TREASON: Suffering just three losses, Treason are halfway to a century. Their tough defence is their best asset, but Payne and Lockdown are a deadly strike partnership.
SABREFELL ATHLETIC: With 42 goals, Athletic boast the best attack in the league. While their amazing start has diminished with time, they’re still within reach of the Premiership title.
BRINEMOUTH: Solid in a generic kind of way. They’re four points off first, and have the star power in players like dos Santos and Kenney to press for the title.
MAXIMUM CITY: Haven’t been as consistent as they’ve needed. While Crewe is still the bulwark he’s always been, Nihil’s old, Pennant’s young and Delaney’s mediocre. They need shoring up in midfield, too. UICA’s probable, title’s still beyond likely reach.
SABREFELL MOTHS: They’ve lost their best striker... best player, really. And without Thunder, Stubbs, and Rosewood’s showing his age, they’re not the club they used to be. Could a decline be setting in?
MAXIMUM ROVERS: The Rovers have had a great start so far, with a remarkable defensive solidity. They’re much the same side as they were last season, but with far more chemistry, and the addition of Cath Harper to the right wing has been a significant upgrade.
NORTH LAITHLAND: Weaker going forward than they’d like, they seem to be shaping up of late and their defence is great. Excels at close victories.
VALKYRJA HAWKS: It has been announced that next season they will be rebranded to the Coret Hawks, given their... being in Coret. Apart from that, they had an excellent start that’s carried them to a pretty great end, and they’ll be very happy if they can keep this.
VIOLENCE CHARIOTS: They’ve made obvious progress, and boast a good defence and a great midfield. They’re a team that seethes with chemistry and discipline, and a joy to watch.
CRISISBLESS: They were looking pretty good! Then the last seven games happened.
PARRHESIA UNITED: They’re doing alright, but 11th is disappointing for a club seeking to plant itself in the Top 6 or at least 8. They’re very skilled on the attack, competent on the defence, but seem to leak easy goals, which costs them results.
SOUTHFELL UNITED: They were solid at the back and rubbish at the front at the start. The situation has resolved itself.
RAVEN RIVER: Nikita Reeve is proving a solid replacement for Barry Kearney, while Brendan Drake’s fitness is questionable; it’s his last season, but it appears that Cheney Bittencourt will serve well as a replacement. Their defence has been significantly stiffened by the addition of Morant and Fitzmarten, and they’ll be looking for a top 10 finish.
CRANEQUIN WANDERERS: Weak going forward, they’re clearly suffering for the loss of Sedgwick; their defensive stability, however, is significant. If they manage to strengthen their forward line, they could manage around 10th.
SOUTH LAITHLAND: With a tendency to either win narrowly or get utterly trashed, the Southrons can’t boast a particularly good goal difference; they’re doing about as well as expected positionally, however.
INTEGABAD: With a more-than-able forward line, Integabad’s weak midfield is their downfall. They’ve not been remarkable so far, but will be looking to improve their standing.
LEOPOLIS HATEMONGERS: Looked sunk early on, but they’ve clambered to relative safety under Dana Conlan. Still need a stiffer defensive backbone.
CORVETTE MAULERS: Bad defensively, and vulnerable to counterattacks. They make up for this with quick, exciting play, but they presently seem rather like an incomplete version of Maximum Rovers.
IRON CITY: Inconsistent so far, but they’re floating fairly well. If they can shore up their defence, which should in theory be their strongest aspect, they should be well safe.
GOODFEATHER: Great goalkeeper, gets no support from his defence. Good midfielders. One good striker. Goodfeather should be doing better, but they’re five points from danger. No need to panic... yet.
RAGING FIRE HARES: Sinking fast. Tepid attack, can no longer rely on their defence.
BROOKFORD OTTERS: They’ve been abysmal, simply lacking their tenacity that marked their game last season. They simply aren’t coping in attack; they need a wakeup call, and fast.
RHAGANT SCHADENFREUDE: Twelve goals in twenty-three games. But it’s no real surprise; Rhagant have been treading water for a significant time, and a squad that was old when they came up is still largely the same. Russ Reucassel can’t really be blamed, but he’ll still probably be fired. Survival, though, is still within reach.
FRANCHISE: Dreadful, simply dreadful. They have managed exactly 1 (one) win in 23; says it all, really. Griff Reynolds is their only consistent goalscorer, managing nine. They combine an extremely leaky defence with a merely mostly inept offence, and are definitely going down; 11 points from safety with half the season to go, and things will get worse before they get better. The magic number for Franchise fans will be 22; the lowest ever finish in the Premiership. Not being relegated is most likely beyond them now.

While Reckdale Town are mired at the bottom of the table, Greymouth’s inability to get wins has put them three points from safety. The top four are split by two points, Chatswood holding the edge on goal difference, and they have a fair buffer, but shold any of them stumble, North Sabrefell, Starling and Gridlock will be there to capitalise. Midtable is a congested mass.
