KERFA FOOTBALL LEAGUE - YEAR 3

Preview
The Kernansquillecan domestic league has now started to establish itself across the Rushmori region and the world. Ranked 59th after just two seasons in UICA competitions with it's top club, Guingamp, ranked at 123th, interest in domestic football keeps on growing in the land of Green and White, as does the following of UICA competitions. The interest has reached such a point that speculation is surrounding wherever the KERFA are considering submitting a stadium bid for one of the UICA finals.

As for the domestic season new ranking formula once again showed that Guingamp are the leading force in Kernansquillecan football. They have now sealed two titles on the bounce and are firm favourites going into the new season. Rennes du Nord and Mont Kate AFC both only recently arrived in the First Division but went onto finish second and third respectively, to the great surprise of the bookies. Mont Kate AFC even won the National Cup in a season their fans won't be forgetting in a hurry. A special mention must also go out to St Marie and Mur-de-Kernansquillec who will be playing in the top flight after their promotion last season, St Marie bouncing strait back up after relegation in Season One.

Louargat and AFC Kernansquillec will be hoping to do just that after being relegated. While with AFC it was expected, the Louargat relegation came as a major shock to many fans. Still the Montagnards have a really strong chance of getting promoted this season if they can find some form. Meanwhile Plounevez-Moëdec will look to avoid finishing last, thus winning the cuillère en bois (wooden spoon), for the third year in a row.

In the development divisions it is once again a very open and balanced league. Rennes du Nord U19 will look to defend their title while Louargat CDF will look to go to the final for a third year in a row, even if so far they have failed to win the final in their two attempts. The St Marie Youth Academy have also managed to reach the play-off semi-finals two years in a row and will be looking to match those performances once again.

Review
In the First Division it was same-old, same-old as Guingamp stormed to the title for a third in a row. 9 points clear and an amazing 60 goals in 18 games emphasized just how good they have been this season. However they couldn't manage to complete a historic double despite recording some gigantic wins in the cup such a the 9-0 humiliation of Belle-Isle-en-Terre. Rennes, the team beaten into second place in the league, forced the Rouges et Noirs to penalties and snatched the win away from their rivals to lift the Cup.

Mont Kate AFC suffered a fall from grace. After finishing third in their first season back in the top flight they only just avoided relegation, finishing eight. Rennes du Nord also fell down the table somewhat, finishing fourth. St Marie pulled off a minor surprise to finish third and qualify for the Globe Cup. Elsewhere Belle-Isle-en-Terre and Mur-de-Kernansquillec were relegated, as most pundits had expected.

Louargat managed to pull of the relegation-promotion bounce by winning the Second Division. And AFC Kernansquillec joined them in coming strait back up, winning a tight playoff final against La Chapelle-Neuve 1-0. A special mention must also go to Plounevez-Moëdec who achieved the unwanted feat of winning the cuillère en bois three years on the bounce. Some fans have even dubbed the wooden spoon the "Moëdecan" spoon ("cuillère du Moëdec").

The St Libherr Division saw Guingamp U19 emulate the success of their senior side as they took the title, despite only finishing second in their group. Louargat CDF will however feel very hard done by. Despite winning their group very comfortably, finishing 7 points clear of the Guingampais, and making the final for a third year in a row, they once again lost it at the final hurdle losing 2-1.

The final piece of news to report of this amazing season is the fact that the Kernansquillecan FA has gone ahead and bid two sides for UICA finals. The National Stadium has been put forward for the Champions' Cup final while a joint KERFA-Guingamp bid has put forward the Stade du Roudourou for the Series B Champions' Cup final. A KERFA spokeswoman stated that they were "confidant" that at least one of the bids would gather enough support to win the final, adding that "this just goes to show how far Kernansquillecan football has come over the past three years".

Kernansquillec (KRN) final site bids
Champions' Cup 55: The National Stadium, Kernansquillec City (capacity 110,000)
The National Stadium, also known as the "Green Jewel", is one of the landmarks of Kernansquillec. Home to the national side and their home international matches, as well as Kernansquillec's National Cup final and other playoff finals, it was partially destroyed during the war but avoided most of the devastation that plagued the capital. With construction work now over it is ready to welcome the world. Directly linked to the metro system and well serviced by complementary bus services, it's just a mere 500 meters away from the train station and 18 minutes away from the airport, with shuttles directly linking stadium and airport on match days. A 25,000 capacity car park also allows plenty of space for local residents to come the game. Many hotels, hostels, restaurants and leisure centres surround the area, allowing all visiting fans to enjoy local culinary delights and ensuring that all those who wish to stay on longer to discover more of the Green and White corner of Rushmori may do so without busting a bank.

Series B Champions' Cup 17: Le Stade du Roudourou, Guingamp (capacity 80,000)
The Roudourou, home to domestic league champions Guingamp, had to be completely rebuilt following an airstrike against the original in the early days of the war. Up and running by the start of the first season of domestic Kernansquillecan football thanks to huge investments from the board and local government has seen the Roudourou host UICA tournament football thanks to Guingamp's recent rise on the international club football stage while also seeing the first three KERFA First Division trophies paraded on it's pitch. Local facilities will make sure that all away fans will be made welcome. A great number of pubs, bars and nightclubs will also make for nights to remember for those wanting to make the most of the week of football that would be hosted by Guingamp.

Season Four
Preview

With World Cup 68 barely over, it’s time for the fourth season of the LigAnaia, the combined league for the footballing nations of north-east Atlantian Oceania.

Last season saw a number of ‘firsts’ for the league. Most notably, Starblaydi clubs joined those of The Inevitable Syndicate and the Audioslavian states to add extra spice to an already seriously competitive league. The sixteen member clubs were expanded to forty, with the main league, re-dubbed LigAnaia One, expanding from sixteen to twenty teams and a LigAnaia Two being created beneath, with full promotion/relegation between the two. The CopAnaia was founded, and ran concurrently with the regular season and, finally, a team outwith Audioslavia won the league for the first time, with Fligsive FC embarking on a remarkable come-back from sixth place with five games to go to pip rivals 1830 Cathair to first place and bring the LigAnaia trophy to Syndicatian shores.

The new season sees the league expand again, with AO old-boys Legalese joining the fray, entering five teams into an expanded top flight of twenty-four. This season will see five clubs relegated from the top flight, with just one team replacing them, and the slimming-down process is expected to create a great deal of tension as the ‘lesser’ teams struggle to avoid the vast hole at the bottom of the league.

The CopAnaia, too, is changing. Last season’s experiment with all forty teams (plus representatives from the three nations’ national leagues, considered the third tier of the combined league) has been replaced with four seperate national cup competitions, with the winners of each playing off to decide which of the four associations receives the coveted final Globe Cup spot.

The Teams

Champions Cup Representatives

Fligsive FC qualified for the Champions Cup through winning the LigAnaia last season, and will be joined in UICA’s premier tournament by fierce rivals 1830 Cathair, who finished as runners-up the previous season.

The two capital clubs’ rivalry has been the dominant story over the last two seasons, with Cathair taking the season two championship ahead of second place Fligsive, and the Syndicatians returning the favour last year. Fligsive didn’t have it all their own way, though. Fate dictated at the start of last season that the two teams should be drawn together in the qualifying rounds of the Champions Cup. A memorable LigAnai derby, dubbed the Battle for the North East’, ended with the Cathair club taking the spoils, and 1830 would go undefeated against Fligsive for the rest of the season, taking a win and a draw from their two league games. Fligsive may have won the league, but for many the jury is still out over which is the better team.

1830 Cathair’s squad is certainly deeper, and has more in the way of foreign talent, but the side have shown none of the cohesion of Fligsive’s premier club, who themselves have the experienced Syndicatian strike-force of Bruce Fries and Robert Hampson firing in plenty of goals each season.

Comunas Cougars are also represented in the Champions Cup, having qualified through winning the final National Championship, before the National League reverts to the third flight of LigAnaia football, albeit with a catchy name - The Leaguealese. Cougars, despite their status as one of the smaller-market clubs at the top level, boast one of the strongest defences in the league, complete with Legalese international pairing Shoobridge and Masters, and a dangerous attacking force is spearheaded by national team striker Jake Detzler, and will be looking for at least a top three finish in their maiden LigAnaia season. One setback is the loss of Manager Ben Gammel to the National Team, leaving his assistant Marcus Mendoza at the helm with a monumental task ahead.

Globe Cup Representatives

Iskara Daii are Starblaydia’s sole representative in UICA football this season. The side cantered to the title of ‘Starblaydi Champions’ in season three through finishing fourth, well ahead of a Starblaydi pack that largely finished in the bottom half.

‘The Daii’, as they’re known to most, are a famous old club, named after the warrior class of Starblaydia’s sabre-weilding ancient past. Their best days however, are most certainly behind them. Daii’s last major inter-nation trophy came in the days before UICA was founded - a Nationstates Champions League - and the days of world-class players - the likes of Simeone di Bradini, Didi Mussorgsky, Antonis Ratuva, et al - have been largely a distant memory in recent decades. The purchase of Equestrian States star striker Stardust, however, among a slew of other foreign recruits, has given the old club hope of improving on last season’s fourth place, although any sort of UICA success seems quite far off for now.

Joining The Daii in the Globe Cup are the Syndicatian trio of Magnaeus City, Westonbirt and Crystal Mertagne. Magnaeus, capital of the Syndicatian north, are no strangers to Globe Cup football, having represented The Inevitable Syndicate and The LigAnaia in each of the last three editions of the tournament, but the men in dark blue have aspirations far beyond that, and a place in next season’s Champions Cup is the minimum target for the side this season.

Mertagne and Westonbirt, on the other hand, are two teams outwith the traditional powerhouse triumverate of Magnaeus, Burgess and Fligsive who worked hard last season to make it into the second tier of UICA football, with Westonbirt especially impressive in reaching the dizzy heights of third place with a startling late-season run of form. Both sides will go into the new season with hopes of cementing their rightful place among the elite of the league, and will look to knock off all of the supposed ‘big three’ of Syndicatian football, among others, to prove themselves to be as strong as any of the big guns.

Representing Audioslavia in the Globe Cup are AC Izotz Zubia and CopAnaia winners Oljestaden. Zubia, or ‘Zozi’ as they’re affectionately called, were the winners of the inaugural LigAnaia but have fallen away since, finishing fourth in season two and way down in seventh last season, only narrowly scraping into the last of the league’s five allocated GC places. Their form in UICA tournaments, however, is the most impressive of the LigAnaia clubs; they’re the only team to have reached the group stage of the Globe Cup, and have done so on both their previous forays into the tournament. Such a feat will be their minimum target in UICA football this season. Their league target will, as ever, be to win the championship, and although the team is as strong as its ever been, they are by no means better, or worse, than their rivals at the minute.

Oljestaden looked to be a real force for the first month of last season, winning four out of four and revelling in the fine form of experienced midfielder-turned-defender James Courier as well as the strike partnership of prodigious Jody Rijshaart and Polarian striker Ivan Harsted. A loss of the former will hurt the northerners, though, and their chaces of progressing to the group stage of the Globe Cup may well suffer as a result.

The Legalites sent three to the Globe Cup from their final season in the old system, with National League winners Draig Goch FC technically headlining the trio. The Red Dragons, hailing from the old port city of Numalia, fell just short of claiming the National Championship, falling to the Cougars in the final, and may welcome the end of the playoff system as a result. Their consolation prize, however, is a place in the Playoff Round.

Joining the Red Dragons, however, are the real prizes - the Tyrellian twins. While no longer the mighty capital that it was long ago, the beer-soaked jewel in the Casari crown, it has been, as a Legalite city, the capital of one thing: football dominance. The Tyrellia Titans, for example, claim two National League titles, two National Championships, and a cup in their short history. The slightly-less illustrious International of Tyrellia, or Inter to the Audioslavian media, can claim the honor of having earned a UICA spot in all four seasons of active play for the national domestic program; they also boast the fact that they feature, in their eleven, the National Team captian, Cyrus Damhan. At times, it has seemed that he has single-handedly willed Inter to success.

Challengers

Burgess FC are emphatically ‘not’ the sort of team who would consider themselves candidates for a mid-table finish. The Eastport club were runners up in the inaugural LigAnaia season, and finished third the season after, but a miserable season three saw the side miss out on the available UICA spots, finishing a lowly eighth. Burgess fans will feel that, without the distraction of inter-national football, they will be free to pursue the league title once again, and a top three finish will be the minimum the fans expect.

Elsewhere from the Syndicate, Nostromo Meteorites will be hoping to continue their late season form from last season, where they went from being a relegation-threatened side to comfortably settling into mid-table. The UICA spots might be a long way away, but Nostromo are a side with ambition, and hope to emulate the success of the other supposedly ‘middling’ teams, Westonbirt and Crystal Mertagne, who have both over-achieved in recent years.

KT Itzalovalle are the ‘second’ team from Sierra Herradura, the mountainous region to the south-east that harbours almost half of Audioslavia’s representatives in the top two divisions. The side have long since been poor relations of nearby AC Izotz Zubia, but their fervent support would deny ever being in any way ‘lesser’ than the side from Izotzazubia. The side qualified for the Globe Cup after their first season in the LigAnaia, finishing sixth, just two points behind 1830 Cathair, but have been poor in the two seasons since, finishing just above the relegation zone on both occasions. The side, however, have made some signings over the summer, including Dylan Wells and Adam Cooper from the Gloriax league, as well as experienced striker Ion Itzal on a free transfer from 1830 Cathair. The reds will hope Pasarga national team playmaker Mezei Orbán can continue to create from midfield if they’re to avoid any kind of relegation scares in the coming season.

Starblaydi powerhouses Telecontare have welcomed an influx of money and Vanoran talent over the summer after a disastrous start to life in the LigAnaia; the elves were only two points better than relegation in season three. Last season was tough for all the Starblaydi clubs bar the Daii, though northerners Foxchester Raiders and the lakeside’s Corinthian Spirits at least managed to salvage mid-table finishes from the purple mess, and will look to improve on that this season. Foxchester in particular are hoping to kick on. The Nova Britannicus side are former UICA Champions Cup finalists and, though the CC is probably outwith their grasp for now, their fans feel the club shoult at least be capable of challenging in the top half of the table.

Relegation Threatened

The LigAnaia’s imminent downsizing from twenty-four teams to twenty means that five (and possibly more, depending on end-of-season UICA coefficients.. more on that later) teams will be relegated from the top flight come May. Of those five, Shamrock Cathair are perhaps favourites for the drop. The side, poor relations to crosstown rivals 1830 Cathair, have been in dire financial trouble. The side finished a reasonable tenth last season, largely due to the goals of star striker Jaurtiketa Buruz, but the striker’s move to Izotz Zubia has decapitated a team already suffering through retirements, and the only replacements the side have found have come in the form of free transfers.

Shamrock will be in real danger of dropping from Cathair’s second team to the third, as newcomers Cazadores Cathair join them in the top flight. Cazadores can boast a younger, fitter and more exciting first team, complete with Audioslavia’s first ever female footballer RJ Styrn, and an influx of readily available cash for signings should see the side finish above their celtic rivals, but whether they can keep themselves out of the bottom five is another matter.

Hallad Reavers and Hippion Overdrive are two sides with contrasting histories. Hallad participated in the first ever Liga Starblaydia, finishing third, but have never been able to recreate that kind of success. The Reavers were poor last season, and without the kind of economic might of a Telecontare or Cazadores Cathair, the side are expected to struggle. Hippion have none of Hallad Reavers’ history, being formed recently for the quickly-disbanded Nationstates Premier League. Two seasons without any kind of football have weakened the side, who barely avoided relegation last season, and the Overdrive are expected to struggle to stay afloat.

Bob’s Towing are perhaps the most bizarrely named of the LigAnaia’s Legalite representatives, but the side are one with the most interesting story behind them. Back in Legal Year 258 (2135 for the Audioslavians reading), the outfit sprung up as a youth team, when the Darland brothers, Jimmy and Vincent, convinced their father, Robert, to have his service station sponsor their youth team. As such, the name emblazoned on their shirt read Bob’s Towing. Jimmy turned out to be good enough to keep his friends in the game, as the club moved up from recreational youth play, to local pub leagues, to becoming a semi-professional force, enough to earn an invite into the national championship program, as well as full sponsorship from Gamma Apparel, also based in Plainsview. Despite winning the first National Championship, the fortunes of Towing have sagged of late, with the Darlands now relegated to the front office. It is up to second-year manager Casnar Golt to turn their fortunes around, before their story remains just an old memory.

Finally, Syndicatian outfit Lesko Pavillion, the ‘other’ team in Fligsive, are expected to struggle. The side, very much also-rans in Syndicatian football, have been permanently stuck in the bottom half of the table since the LigAnaia started, and should be in or around the relegation zone come the end of the season.

The ‘Ashes of the Aces’ Match
Fligsive FC 2–0 Oljestaden IF

Kicking off the season is the first annual ‘Ashes of the Aces’ match, held between the LigAnaia and CopAnaia champions. The name refers to the burning of Krytenian football memorabilia (mainly a bunch of Kirola-made kits, but also the wooden goalposts and nets from the Isserton Stadium) after Krytenia’s eventual withdrawal from domestic and international football. Efforts to entice what remains of the Krytenian football league remain fruitless, but either way the Krytenian ‘Aces’ national team are remembered through this pre-season super-cup, which sees two sides compete for the large-ish bronze urn that contains the ‘ashes of Krytenian football’.
Oljestaden, beaten in midweek Globe Cup action, are second favourites behind the reigning LigAnaia champions Fligsive FC, themselves losers in the first leg of their Champions Cup tie. Fligsive shrug off the loss to post a two-nil victory over a lacklustre Oljestaden. It isn’t a fantastic advertisement for LigAnaia football, but then, the season is only just beginning…

Despite the temporal divide between the four LigAnaia nations, all twelve opening games of the new season kick off simultaneously: Three o'clock in the Syndicate, four o'clock in Audioslavia, Rawcrush Time in Starblaydia and the late industrial era in Legalese.

Fligsive versus AC Izotz Zubia is the marquee tie of matchday one, and number ten Mixu Kohelmainnen becomes the first scorer of the new season with an emphatic second-minute strike to silence the home fans. Zozi have the better of the first half, coming close through Kohelmainnen again as well as new signing Jaurtiketa Buruz, and their four-man midfield of Luminez, Prudentzio, Rios and sixteen year-old teenage sensation Aitor Jovellanos - the product of a recent raid on youth academy of second tier KT Koroatuz - is enough to make the Fligsivians look very ordinary. The boys in green, however, are in no mood to roll over in front of their home fans and centre half Petr Cervinka is on hand to head home the side's fifth corner of a second half that sees the Fligsive side bounce back. Mytanar midfieler Oleg Eyseev, scorer of the two goals that wrested a supposedly lost Champions Cup tie from Guingamp in midweek, should probably win the game for Fligsive with a near-post effort that he somehow manages to fire over the bar, but on the whole a 1-1 draw is a fair result from this battle of former league champions.

A short ferry ride away in Sunrise Park, Burgess FC play host to Starblaydia's elvish outfit Telecontare in a battle between two sides who see themselves as Champions Cup contenders, but have little in the way of positive recent results to back that assertation up. Burgess, eighth last season, take the lead in the first half through new signing Peto Kartal, but have to weather a heavy storm of a new-look Tele side who's plethora of new signings, all from Valanora and all with a markedly higher pedigree than those Tele players who narrowly avoided relegation last season. Tele look like equalising on countless occasions before Pasha Yakolev of Zwangzug capitalises on a defensive mis-step to intercept a pass, control it, and lay it off to Colin Noc to score the second goal of the game. 2-0 the score would remain, further frustrating the elves.

The Cathair derby ends with 1830 overcoming Shamrock by a goal to nil at the 66 stadium, and this sentence most likely ends with a phone call from an irate hispanic demanding I not dub the game 'the' capital derby. There are, of course, some new boys in town in the guise of Cazadores Cathair, who have travelled to Starblaydia to face former NSPL side Hippion Overdrive. 'Boys', of course, isn't exactly the right word to use, as the Cazadores boast the talents of one Ronda Jude Styrn - the first female Audioslavian footballer in history. The nineteen year old is a revelation in the 'false nine' position, causing havoc in the gap between defence and attack. Hippion had taken an early lead, but Andro Mendez's reply and Aitor Zavala's deft turn-and-shot turn the tables on the Starblaydis, who quickly find themselves three and four one down through Mendoza and veteran winger Zigor Jorda. Styrn, with her harrying of the Overdrive back eight while in their own half, has had a hand in all four goals, and its fitting that she claims the fifth one for herself, darting accross the box to flick the outside of a boot at a low cross from Jorda and tuck it neatly into the near post. Overdrive recover a little to render the scoreline a little less embarassing at 'only' three goals to five.

Elsewhere, Legalite side Bob's Towing, they of the rather hollywood backstory, play host to a Crystal Mertagne team that plays the dastardly, moneyed baddie to a t, thrashing the newcomers all over the park in the first scene and winning out three-one in Plainsview. Elsewhere in Legalese, Tyrellia Titans are held to a draw by Lesko Pavillion and, in an all-Legalite tie, Comunas Cougars make a statement of intent regarding their chances of winning the league with victory over Draig Goch; the 2-1 result sees Detzler’s first tally, along with a 73rd minute free kick by midfielder Julian Crowther to lock up the three points. KT Itzalovalle don't seem to be missing relegated local rivals Moreazerua and overcome Corinthian Spirits by a single Mezei Orbán goal to nil, Magnaeus and Westonbirt stalemate in The Bird Cage and Starblaydia's Hallad Reavers, favourites for the drop this season, are defeated at home to an impressive looking, and sounding, International of Tyrellia.

The upsets of matchday one are the respective defeats of Iskara Daii - overcome by Nostromo Meteorites - and reigning CopAnaia champions Oljestaden who travel to northern Starblaydia and are sent back at the wrong end of a four-two hiding by a Foxchester Raiders side that look, for a game at least, very much capable of recapturing their former glories.

Things go from bad to worse for Iskara Daii as they are beaten 2-0 by Itzalovalle in front of their own supporters. Fans of the reds are not at all happy, and the theme of a demonstration outside the offices of the club seems to be distaste at the lack of signings made over the summer by the Daii. More on that later..

Cazadores Cathair are brought back down to earth by the indeed very earthy Bob's Towing, who defeat the capital club by a goal to nil. It's good news also for Telecontare, Draig Goch and Shamrock Cathair who all bounce back from opening day defeats to win game two, with the latter particularly impressive in overcoming title hopefuls Magnaeus FC. Title favourites Fligsive host Burgess in a hotly contested east-coast (or, as the Syndicatians call it, 'coast') showdown that ends with the champions taking all three points. It’s bad news for the rest of Legalese's teams. Comunas Cougars are held to a draw by Westonbirt and Internationals of Tyrellia, supposedly one of Legalese's top three sides, are spanked five-one on the international pitch by early leaders Foxhester Raiders. Tyrellia Titans battle to a 2-2 draw with Crystal Mertagne while, elsewhere, Lesko Pavillion hold Zozi to a goal-less draw.

There’s a big result in the all-Starblaydi clash as Corinthian Spirits take a four-one win over a Hallad Reavers side that look favourites for the drop after just two games, but game of the day is Oljestaden versus 1830 Cathair. The northerners push 1830 early and take the lead twice, first through new signing Jonathan Faña, then through Ivan Haarsted either side of a Wilfred Lidgley reply. Oljestaden start stronger, too, after the break, but can't contain veteran Vilitan striker Viji-mara Lawaai who, in the seventieth minute, makes space on the edge of the area and cracks a low shot straight into the bottom corner. Lawaai is on target again five minutes later with an improvised close-range finish - diverting a waist-height Mark Lewis cross into the roof of the net with a swing of his knee - and 1830 Cathair hold on for the win.

Izotz Zubia travel to Burgess on matchday three in a battle between the two 'big' clubs who were the most disappointed with their efforts the previous season. Burgess, the home side, are the bookies' favourites against a Zozi team who are yet to taste victory in the league and who looked sluggish in sneaking past GAS side FK Keltschdorf in midweek. Not only that, but the side are without key midfield players Prudentzio and Luminez, both of whom jumped at the chance to ply their trade abroad with Sicoutimont's Lac-Drouin City and Valanora's Tanrisal respectively. In their place is the comparitively untested Ytrribian Aaron Aiza, who arrives from AC Gaillard in time to take Luminez's place on the right of midfield. Burgess's own new signing Peto Kartal goes close early on, but the men in sky blue and yellow are stunned by two strikes late in the first half - Jovellanos and Buruz the scorers - which rocks their confidence at a vital time. Burgess never look like getting back into the match and are put to bed by a Onesime Rios strike on sixty-five minutes. Zozi are rampant 3-0 winners, and Burgess have now gone two games in a row against their supposed peers and been thrashed both times.

"Back in my day.." say Shamrock Cathair, "a 3-0 thrashing was a compliment! the highlight of our week! We were glad of it, so we were". Shamrock do, indeed, resemble a collection of Monty Python's elderly Yorkshiremen as they are resoundingly crushed 7-1 by top Legalites Comunas Cougars. Shamrock aren't the only Cathair side to suffer at the hands of Legalite opposition, as Cazadores are swept aside 3-0 by Tyrellia Titans. Even 1830 aren't safe; held to a draw by Inter in a game that peters out quickly after both sides notch early goals. It's business as usual for the Syndicatian sides, none of who's results are in any way surprising other than possibly Fligsive's inability to beat a strong Nostromo away from home.

The Starblaydi comedy double-act of Hallad Reavers and Hippion Overdrive still seem a long way off the pace. Hippion's best efforts to overcome Westonbirt at home are thwarted by the Syndicatians' constant insistence on taking the lead soon after the Starblaydi's muster up enough strength to force an equaliser, and are duly beaten 2-3, while Hallad are hit for four on their own turf by a Daii side that just looks light years ahead of their opposition.

The big news of the weekend comes after the twelve games are played, with 1830 Cathair's announcement that they have solved their defensive problems with two big name signings. The Elders had been forced to persist with two teenage centre-halves in recent weeks and have looked shaky as a result, so it's no surprise that they've lined up some replacements. What is surprising is the fact that both replacements are female - the second and third female players ever to represent Audioslavian clubs. Of the two, Andrea Molovi, who arrives from Stalliongrad for a whopping fifteen million dollars, is the biggest name. Ulrika Kinlasson, a $4m signing from relegated Apoxians Wrexton, is a little more of an unknown quantity, but the nineteen year-old has age on her side. RJ Styrn, Audioslavia's first female footballer, over at city rivals Cazadores Cathair, is said to be bemused but welcoming of the change of the nation's attitudes regarding female footballers. The nineteen year old Audioslavian appears increasingly annoyed by constant questions about her fellow female footballers in the city, and at one point lambasts a journalist who enquires as to whether she'll be meeting up with Molovi and Kinlasson to go 'shoe shopping or something'. Styrn's agent is quick to point out that her client is understandably frustrated at her team's second loss of the season, as well as the media's insistence on turning her and her fellow bevagina'd peers into a comedy sideshow. Styrn herself insists she will be 'firmly shutting the traps' of the media's more traditionalist journos in next week's game against Lesko Pavillion.

Styrn makes good on her promise, scoring one goal, making another, and altogether being the difference between an occasionally inspired, and occasionally insipid, Cazadores side and their capable yet unimaginitive opponents Lesko Pavillion, who are ferried back to south Fligsive with their tails between their legs. It is a good day for Cazadores fans who, one imagines, were able to bask in their victory while also being able to mock fans of Shamrock Cathair as they leave the Glass Bridge stadium having watched their side capitulate 3-1 to Hippion Overdrive. Fans of 1830 Cathair are just as annoyed, but are at least a whole ocean away as they lose their road-game to Corinthian Spirits by a goal to nil.

Another Audioslavian side on the rocks are northerners Oljestaden IF, who's 3-1 home defeat to Comunas Cougars is their fifth loss on the trot, going back to the Ashes match against Fligsive. Their last win was against minnows Sydney Swans in the globe cup, and the side are stuck fast at the bottom of the table alongside Hallad Reavers, who lose away to a Telecontare side who's season appears to have started properly after their opening day disappointment. The other all-Starblaydi match is won by an Iskari Daii side who's plethora of recent transfers - a whole nineteen players were signed before the transfer deadline, at the behest of a chairman rather annoyed with the constant protests outside his mansion - appears to have strengthened them, while beaten opponents Foxchester Raiders' sojourn to the top of the LigAnaia is ended, perhaps for the rest of the season or even for the rest of time.

The most eagerly awaited game on matchday five is Iskara Daii's visit to 1830 Cathair. The Audioslavian capital club look a lot better than they did in defeat the previous week, but are still suffering the midweek hangover from their rollercoaster upset over Makosile in midweek and are lucky to escape with a point. Magnaeus are dominant in victory over Corinthian Spirits, with two goals coming from in-form Barangayan striker Vince Urrea, with Ryan Booker and Felix Kaestner netting the other two. The real story of the day, however, is Comunas Cougars' continued insistence that they, too, are a top LigAnaia side, and their one-nothing win over local rivals International of Tyrellia keeps them on top of the LigAnaia for another week. Zozi, Fligsive and Burgess are all chasing, all registering important away wins, but Tele can't manage the same and are held to a frustrating draw by Foxchester.

One side not too annoyed with an away draw are Oljestaden IF, who register their first point of the season against Hippion Overdrive. Oljestaden, bizarrely, have been in better form since the loss of talismanic young winger Jody Rijshaart to the sunnier climes of Apoxian football. Oljestaden have spent frugally in the transfer market, bringing in Harry Xafagoulis from Barbury Town's reserves and signing Guayabalese striker Johnathon Fanya from Equestria's Fillydelphia HC, as well as raiding relegated Moreazerua's teenage goalie Zebjan Istanjovich and Project +90 Kjelstad's Apollinaris Tretyakova. It is the unweildily named teenager who scores the equaliser for Oljestaden, rising at the back post in the eighty-fifth minute to secure the point.

Matchday six is the first domestic midweek encounter, and the Tuesday evening fixtures feature a mouthwatering all-Audioslavian clash between high-flying Izotz Zubia and the young guns of Cazadores Cathair. Zozi have the better of a fast-paced match, taking a first-half lead through a Jovellanos finish, and should possibly put the game to bed early in the second half as both Buruz and Kulkkiia miss golden opportunities, but that girl again RJ Styrn is there to upset the hosts in the seventieth minute, bullying defensive midfielder Onesime Rios off the ball and setting up Andro Mendez to score past Abraham Terrazas. Westonbirt continue to impress, beating Lesko by three goals to one, while Bob's Towings Tuesday-night visit to Oljestaden ends with the northern club's supposed change in fortunes being clamped and towed back to a Legalese-bound ferry. The Wednesday evening games see Iskara Daii host Magnaeus and share the spoils in a gripping two-all draw. New signing Stardust, the LigAnaia's first pony player, is a revelations, scoring one and making another of her side's goals, while Magnaeus's replies come from set-pieces, first via a Fred Higgs free-kick and secondly via Antonio Rosaldo's conversion of a high corner into an equaliser by means of an uncontested back-post header.

In other news, Hallad Reavers can't even buy a point, let alone a win, and are rooted to the bottom of the LigAnaia by virtue of a two-nil defeat to a Burgess side that never need to progress from second gear.

Tyrellia Titans 0–0 Oljestaden IF
Lesko Pavillion 1–0 Shamrock Cathair
Crystal Mertagne 2–0 Westonbirt City
Cazadores Cathair 1–2 Draig Goch FC

There are two hotly anticipated ties on matchday seven, starting with Saturday's lunchtime encounter between Iskara Daii and league leaders Comunas Cougars. A tense, tactical game is decided by a sublime piece of skill from Stardust, who collects a pass from young Sunrisian midfielder Marquinhos Carnavalense, jinks past two defenders and curls a delectable shot into the far corner from eighteen yards. Comunas drop from top spot to be replaced by a Burgess FC side who's transfer market activity appears to be bearing fruit, as the side sweep aside their hosts Foxchester Raiders with three goals made entirely in Pasarga - full back Neustadt crosses twice for Kartal to finish for goals one and three, either side of a header by centre-half Zdenek Moravec.

The tea-time kick-off sees the last two champions, Fligsive and 1830 Cathair, butt heads at the 66 Stadium, and once again it is the Audioslavians who come out on top against a Fligsive side they seem to have a hex over, with goals coming from Wilfred Lidgley and Viji-mara Lawaai for Cathair and Dennis Horkawer-Rippel for the visitors. Cazadores' strong run comes to an end as they are beaten at home by a Draig Goch side registering just their second win of the campaign. It is Oljestaden's second point of the season as they hold Tyrellia Titans to a goal-less draw, but it isn't enough to stop the northerners dropping down to the foot of the table thanks to Hallad Reavers finally getting their first win of the season. The reavers barely resemble the side that have rolled over so meekly in recent weeks as they destroy Nostromo Meteorites with a first-half frenzy, going three-nil up after the half hour and only conceding the one consolation goal via Audioslavian striker Xavi Mulloy late in the second half.

Sunday's games see Magnaeus City overcome Telecontare via goals from Alisdair Green and Vince Urrea, before a firecracker of a Sierra derby ends with KT Itzalovalle failing to hang on to their 2-1 lead over clear favourites AC Izotz Zubia, with Zozi's number ten Etamara Kulkkiia salvaging a point in injury time to the dismay of the home crowd.

"Fligsive aren't in crisis" were the exact words used by Farell Kiter, who must have known that he was confirming the exact opposite of his assertation by entering the phrase into a conversation apropos of nothing, in response to the seemingly innocuous question "how are you?". Nevertheless, the reigning champions go into the famous Syndicatian derby with Magnaeus City loitering in tenth place, and leave the stadium down in thirteenth, nursing a very tender behind. Fligsive are, it has to be said, absolutely godawful in their 1-4 demolition by their inland rivals. Even after Bruce Freis halves the home side's deficit in the opening minutes of the second half, the boys in black and green never look like getting even on level terms with the Dreaded Hexagon (note, the Magnaeus team's nickname is probably not 'Dreaded Hexagon', but it should be). Terry Scott is beaten for a third and fourth time before the hour, first by Urrea, then by Antonio Rosado, and the match ends in front of a nearly deserted Flynn Arena but for the eight thousand travelling Magnaean (note, probably not Magnaeus demonym) fanatics.

Fligsive are joined in apparent mid-table obscurity by a Comunas Cougars side struggling to prove that their early lead was anything other than a fluke. The Cougars travel to Telecontare and are sent back home on the wrong end of a four-two scoreline, with Airaaias Cromvathar imperious in the home side's midfield.

The other big-gun shoot-out sees league leaders Burgess host 1830 Cathair and, like Fligsive before them, are rudely spanked in front of their own fans. Andrea Molovi grabs her first goal of the campaign, taking advantage of the home side's complete inability to properly defend a corner and sweeps a loose ball into the roof the net for a second goal shortly after Viji-mara Lawaai's thirty-yard screamer of an opener. The Equestrian States international celebrates her goal - and her first clean sheet of the season - by diving into the stands to group-hug with a bunch of jubilant travelling fans. 1830 Cathair, it appears, have been as quick to accept their female contingent as city rivals Cazadores have, but the two rivals' have contrasting fortunes. Cazadores are struggling, losing 2-1 to a Westonbirt side that, despite having lost a number of first-team players to rival clubs and having the distraction of the Globe Cup to put them off their league play, are in an unlikely fifth place at this early stage in the season with just one defeat in eight games.

The league's only unbeaten side are Zozi, on three wins and four draws going into matchday eight, but that record is quickly made 4-4-0 with a commanding victory over Draig Goch, with teenage winger Jovellanos the architect of the opening two goals and Turori playmaker Etamara Kulkkiia the scorer of a hat-trick. Zozi's lossless streak is only good enough for third behind 1830 Cathair and leaders Magnaeus, with Corinthian Spirits surprisingly making their way to fourth place. The Starblaydi team are winners of an epic battle with Bob's Towing by three goals to two, dragging Bob's side down to fifteenth in the table.

The weekend also sees the first Tyrellia derby, which ends with Inter defeating fashionable rivals Titans by two goals to nil. Both Tyrellia sides find themselves in mid-table obscurity thus far, with the relegations spots and Globe Cup qualification both equal distances away.

Cazadores Cathair 2–2 Shamrock Cathair
Draig Goch FC 1–0 Westonbirt City

A new week, a new leader, as Magnaeus are forced unceremoniously from top-spot by virtue of a 3-1 home defeat by Burgess. 1830 Cathair claim top spot with a narrow victory over Nostromo Meteorites that the casual observer would deem underserved were it not for the form of Lawaai, who sets up Rohan Cammers for goal number one before rendering Lambert Jarvis's equaliser moot with a sublime turn-and-shot from the edge of the area that has Syndicatian international keeper Dominic Archer beaten all ends up.

Across the city, Cazadores and Shamrock play out an entertaining two-all draw, with RJ Styrn again on the scoresheet for the home side. Shamrock's goals, just their fourth and fifth of the season, are scored by Eoghan Solos and Edan Fyfe - both midfielders-turned-makeshift strikers as Shamrock struggle without a recognised target-man. Shamrock, on four points, are second from bottom behind a Hallad Reavers side who have now gone three games without defeat after their inauspicious start. The draw with Zozi maintains the salmon-and-silver's unbeaten record, keeps Hallad above Shamrock and leaves Oljestaden rooted to the bottom of the table on just two points. Oljestaden manager Weverton Sporadic is under fire, and one feels a winning streak is needed, and sharpish, if the young Silexheran/Audioslavian/Cafunduese is to keep his job. Farell Kiter is another manager on the lookout for precariously dangling axes as the champions lose again, away to Legalite champions Comunas Cougars, and drop down to fifteenth ahead of their - and, indeed, the LigAnaia as a whole's - first ever game in the group stages of the Champions Cup.

Fligsive, devoid of domestic form, are scunnered three-nil on their own turf in their Tuesday night showdown with Valladar high-fliers AS Bezieres, but a home fixture against struggling Hippion Overdrive awaits them on the Sunday afternoon and, in a scrappy encounter, the green and blacks finally register another win by virtue of veteran striker Robert Hampson's late strike. AC Izotz Zubia are another team with contrasting fortunes on the continent to at home, and though they come up short on Thursday evening against a superior Cednia Beach side, they are able to maintain their unbeaten record in a tired, scrappy encounter with Westonbirt City, another team suffering a Globe Cup hangover. Magnaeus City, 1830 Cathair and Crystal Mertagne are all in action on Thursday night and each take home creditable draws, and while Cathair's elders and Pinehearth's new clothes can each register wide away wins, Magnaeus come up short away to Nostromo Meteorites. Manager Francois Cardeau blames the fixture list, and has a right to be aggrieved.
"You look at ze uzzer Globe Cup teams, ze Westonbirt, Zubia, Cazair, zey all 'ave ze games on ze Sunday to 'ave ze three day rest but, uuuhhhhhrrrhhhhhhhrrrrhhhhhrrrr we 'ave to play ze Saturday, we play away, is difficile, you know?" said Francois. When asked why he had adopted the accent of a ludicrous Ariddian stereotype, Cardeau replies, simply, 'hon hon hon ze baguette oui?' and re-attaches his string of onions to his hooped sweater as he sachay away, spilling overpriced wine and decapitating a passing royal as he goes.

Cazadores Cathair are another team in action in UICA football, albiet in the lightly regarded Series B Champions Cup, which they had qualified for by virtue of their winning of LigAnaia Two the previous season. Cazadores are in fact the only LigAnaia team to win their UICA encounter, with an impressive home victory over New Haverford Albion, and they have none of Magnaeus problems as they overcome crisis club Oljestaden away from home. Oljestaden, now, are in trouble, and although there are still thirty-six matches to play, they are already nine points short of the 'safety' zone of eighteenth place.

Were the league to finish today, the bottom five of Oljestaden, Hallad, Hippion, Shamrock and Nostromo would all be relegated to the second flight, with just one team to replace them in the new twenty-team league. At the top, Cathair would be crowned champions for the second time, but most surprising is Corinthian Spirits' appearance in the top two. The Corinthians had threatened, last season, to break into the GC places but fell away at the final stretch. With so many of the top teams embroiled in UICA action from week to week, could a quiet challenge from the unassuming Starblaydis (if such a thing could possibly exist) be the one to take the title?

"I think it goes without saying, at this point, that the board are concerned with Oljestaden's performance on the pitch. We have full faith in Weverton to turn Oljestaden's fortunes around" was the quote repeated across the newspapers of the north east, as Oljestaden IF's chairman stressed his support for his manager while implying the opposite. Either way, Oljestaden are finally victorious on matchday eleven with a scrappy one-nothing win over Draig Goch, with Ivan Haarsted netting the only goal of the game. The result isn't quite enough to lift them from the foot of the table, though, as Hallad Reavers scrape a surprise draw away to 1830 Cathair. The other Cathair teams fare little better, with Shamrock on the end of another hiding and Cazadores coming off second best in their home incounter with Inter Tyrellia.

It is, in all, not a great day for most of Audioslavia's teams, and AC Izotz Zubia are the most upset after losing their lossless record away to a Foxchester Raiders team who so utterly outplay the Sierrans that it would be difficult to convince a casual observer that the men in silver and pink are supposed to be the favourites. The weekend of Audioslavian incompetence is rounded off by Sunday's dismantling of the hitherto quiet and functional Itzalovalle machine. Magnaeus run riot with a six-two victory in which Vincre Urrea gets on the scoresheet four times, accompanied by Alisdair Green and Syndicatian international Fred Higgs.

Fligsive and Burgess both pick up important away wins, and Comunas Cougars appear to have re-found their form: four-nil winners at home to a Nostromo Meteorites side that are increasingly nervy about their position in the relegation pile.

Foxchester Raiders 0–2 1830 Cathair FC

Cathair bounce back from their Saturday slip-up with two important away wins, first a wonderful win over Jlinal Cove in the Globe Cup, then an imperious display in Starblaydia as they overcome Foxchester by two goals to nil. Iskara Daii host Crystal Mertagne on the Sunday and score four past the Globe Cup hopefuls. Stan Saraut, Marquinhos Carnavalense, Astara Daili and Orson Faulkner score the goals. Magnaeus City, in action in midweek, have their game on the Sunday after last week's bleating to the league organizers, and the extra day's rest possibly makes the difference as they narrowly overcome relegation favourites Hallad Reavers by two goals to one. Reavers are back on the bottom of the table within the hour as Westonbirt, beaten away from home by Aasiaat Harbour in the Globe Cup, lose on the road again, this time by an Oljestaden side who finally appear to have found some semblance of form. Shamrock, who themselves were once in the Globe Cup just two seasons ago, snatch a point from Izotz Zubia to the disgust of the Sierran fans.

In the Syndicate, Burgess and Fligsive both win, the former by five goals to two over Bob's Towing, to propel the big Syndicatians up the table.

The big story of the weekend, though, is Corinthian Spirits who, again, look impressive in victory and remain in second place, a point behind leaders Cathair and one ahead of Tele and Comunas. There is little coming from the club in terms of media output, however, as they try to maintain their low profile and the lack of pressure that comes with it.

Westonbirt City 4–3 International of Tyrellia
Shamrock Cathair 0–1 Oljestaden IF

The 'expected' slip-up for the Spirits, as they fail to take anything from their trip to Draig Goch. Centre-half Xavi Nunez is frustrated and vocalizes his opinion of the condescending Audioslavian media in the post-game interview where, ears covered in headphones, he points an angry finger at Jeremy Jaffacake and shouts 'I would love it if we beat you up and put you in a bag and throw you into a river and drain the river and throw it into outer space, love it."

Equally frustrated are Fligsive, beaten away to a Lesko Pavillion side that, according to Fligsive forward Oleg Evseev, "have no business even being in the same league as [Fligsive]". The outburst comes after the game in which Lesko imposed their physicality on the Fligsivians and scored both goals through set pieces launched into the danger-area, with Jaques Beadeu and Alan Bishop scoring in the two-one win.

Shamrock are bad-tempered too, but mainly with themselves as they fall 1-0 to a rejuvenated Oljestaden in Saturday's early kick-off. Oljestaden, winless in their first ten games, are now three for three in a run that brings to mind their record last season, where they had lead the league after three early wins before failing to win again for three months.

By contrast, bottom-of-the-table Hallad Reavers are less angry, more resigned, after a trip to Comunas Cougars which sees the bottom-feeders ship seven goals and stay rooted to the foot of the table. Comunas, with their win, go top for at least a day.

Sunday's big game is 1830 Cathair FC versus AC Izotz Zubia in a clash between the big guns of Audioslavian football. Cathair are narrow favourites, and secure an even narrower win through a scrappy, deflected goal which sees the unfortunate Lortzen Zauritu on the scoresheet for the opposing side - an 'own goal' by virtue of a firmly hit Lawaai effort rebounding off the post, off the back of his shoulder and into the net.

It's a fantastic week for LigAnaia sides in UICA competitions as most of the six representative clubs win or draw, with the exception of AC Izotz Zubia's 2-1 defeat to Independent Garitzeta. Zozi's frustration at struggling once again in the group stages of the Globe Cup - the side have qualified for each of the previous two without getting even close to progressing - is taken out on Oljestaden in what looked to be a close matchup going into the game, but ends in a five-zero blowout that rudely halts the northerners' resurgence. 1830 Cathair and Magnaeus City are also in action on the Sunday, but neither side are in top form after tough midweek Globe Cup ties, and a nil-nil draw means Comunas Cougars top the league on week fourteen on goal difference, having usurped Foxchester Raiders on the Saturday.

Corinthian Spirits make it two losses out of two with a disappointing home defeat to Westonbirt, who score through Curtis Théberge, a transfer deadline-day signing from CA Paulinthal. Westonbirt are tied with Zozi in eighth, but are seven points adrift from the leaders as the league slowly begins to open up. Burgess FC drop three points behind the dual leaders of Comunas and Cathair as they draw a slow, tired game with Lesko Pavillion.

At the bottom, Hallad Reavers' hard earned point at home to Hippion Overdrive is cancelled out by Shamrock Cathair's spirited draw with Inter Tyrellia, although Nostromo Meteorites slip a little closer to the Starblaydis with defeat to the other Tyrellia side, the Titans. Tyrellia's two major football clubs are both, currently, mired in mid-table obscurity, but can be consoled by the fact that a flailing Fligsive and a draw-happy Daii, first and fourth last season, are stuck with in the centre of the pack

The 'big one' on matchday fifteen is undoubtedly the top-of-the-table clash between Comunas Cougars and 1830 Cathair.The Community Stadium is full to capacity on an overcast autumn afternoon that nevertheless can't dull the atmosphere or, indeed, the football on show, as the two sides spend the first half tearing chunks out of one another to the rapturous applause of a crowd seemingly unaware that they're witnessing more of a gladiatorial fight to the death than a football match.

Half-time comes and goes with the score at nil-all, before Comunas finally break the deadlock with their first attack of the half as Jake Detzler gets the hosts on the scoreboard. 1830 have to dig deep if they are to avoid slipping three points behind the leaders, and equalise before the hour via an audacious, speculative effort by Rohan Cammers that dips and curls into the top corner from twenty-five yards out. From nowhere, a football match breaks out amidst the melee. An artfully executed Comunas attack on sixty-five minutes ends with Detzler improvising a backheeled shot at goal which bamboozles keeper Ezin Gorde but bounces off the foot of the post before being cleared by Beltza Gaineratzaile. Within twenty seconds, the hosts are 2-1 down. Cammers again is involved, jinking past a midfielder before laying the ball off to Peter Masters to take forward. Masters runs into trouble, finds Lewis, who lays the ball off for Oliver Abrego who delays just in time for Viji-mara Lawaai to drag his thirty-five year-old legs into the penalty area and divert Abrego's short pass into the bottom corner.

Comunas, roared on by their home fans, work to wrest the game from the Catharans clutches but find themselves usurped, time and time again, but a back four of Molovi, Kinlasson, Gaineratzaile and Okboah. It appears Comunas will need some kind of miracle, and such a thing comes on eighty minutes as Legalite international Jake Detzler controls a high pass on his chest, takes a touch, and strikes a fierce, looping effort that drops into the top corner screaming 'beat that Cammers'.

Notorious hot-head Rohan Cammers apparently takes umbrage at the football's goading and attempts to return the game to its more savage beginnings by throwing an elbow in the face of Gruffudd Masters as he contests a header with the centre-half who has given him so much trouble throughout the game. Masters falls to the ground, clutching his eye, but springs up quickly and has to be restrained by team-mates as he looks to pound Cammers into a fine paste. Cammers is already walking to the tunnel by the time the referee finds his red card, and 1830 Cathair are down to ten men with five minutes to go.

"There's only one team gonna win this now" says retired Legalese NT manager Stan Thate, working for Legalite television, showing the magical foresight that landed him the international job in the first place. To be fair to Stan, he isn't wrong. Comunas press for the winner, but are undone in injury time by the swiftest of counter-attacks, with Peter Masters taking the final two touches of the move, using the first to sidestep a challenge from namesake Gruffudd, and the second to sweep the ball past the keeper with his left foot for two-three.

The final whistle blows to an eerily silent Community Stadium, where it has been pouring with rain for the last ten minutes. People are only beginning to notice.

Elsewhere on matchday fifteen, everyone else draws. Well, Daii win, and Shamrock finally get another victory, beating an increasingly poor Corinthian Spirits, and Bob's Towing deliver unto Hallad Reavers their traditional weekly thashing, oh, and Oljestaden lose to Inter, but that's it.

Comunas Cougars, rattled by their last-minute defeat to rivals Cathair, are visibly off-form on their Sunday outing to Magnaeus City who, despite having themselves played a barnstorming midweek game away to Nestingham, don't look duly tired as they run out four-nil winners at the Bird Cage in a result that moves them above their beaten opponents on, oddly enough, goal difference. Magnaeus now sit third, a point behind Burgess (1-0 winners against a Cazadores side drifting uncomfortably close to the relegation places) and six behind leaders 1830 Cathair, themselves one-nothing winners at home to Hippion Overdrive. Syndicatian Globe Cup representativess Westonbirt are showing signs of the sort of form that took them to third in the league last season by beating Telecontare 2-1 away from home, though fellow GC combatants Crystal Mertagne are soundly beaten 3-1 in Nostromo.

Izotz Zubia sit level on points with Mertagne, and have drawn half of their sixteen games, winning just six. Star man Etamara Kulkkiia is reportedly frustrated at his experience so far in the Sierra. The Turorian has been promised Champions Cup football in the next two seasons - an achievement that would trigger an extension to the midfielder's two-season contract - but the side are looking a long way off that right now.

Another side with too man draws to their name are Starblaydi powerhouses Iskara Daii, who's 0-0 draw at home to Shamrock Cathair ends with boos ringing out throughout the throngs of scarlet-clad supporters. The same sound can be heard accross the country at Corinthian Spirits, who's poor run continues with defeat to Oljestaden IF.

It is, in all, not a great day for Starblaydi football. Hallad Reavers stay bottom, rolled over again, this time by Tyrellia Titans, while just a few points above, still well into the relegation zone, are Hippion Overdrive.

The most exciting match of the weekend is Fligsive versus Draig Goch. The Legalite visitors have been treading water so far in the league, with four wins and four draws from sixteen games, and for long periods look like snatching a famous result away to the league champions, but despite going 3-1 up on sixty minutes, DGFC can't stop the Fligsive fightback, and a Horkawawer-Rippel goal five minutes from time seals a 4-3 win and three much-needed points for Syndicatia's capital club.

There's no respite for any of the top teams as the Atlantian Oceania Champions League kicks off on Wednesday night. The congested fixture list necessitates a depth to each of the squads fortunate enough to be playing UICA-standard football each midweek and, in a shock turn, the traditionally stingy Comunas Cougars are first to open their wallets. Morrissey Beaudine, the young keeper lingering between the posts for Oker United in The Leaguese, is announced as the newest Cougar, in a loan-swap with the mainland lower-division side. Terms of the deal, in terms of currency exchanged, were unknown, other than the sending of Comunas reserve keeper Hunter McCary, where he is expected to pick up some playing time over the course of the season. If any money changed hands, Beaudine would be the first player formally purchased from another professional club in Comunas history.

Whether this was the key to keep them in contention, we don’t know; what we do know is that if Cougars were in crisis, it doesn’t show during a rampant 4-1 victory over a young Zozi team who have often looked like deer in the headlights when it comes to the big games. Magnaeus fall away from the leaders with a bitterly disappointing defeat to Hippion Overdrive, but the Starblaydis stay twenty-third as Cazadores and Shamrock both win, the latter a hugely impressive home victory over fifth placed Telecontare. Fligsive chalk another three points onto the board in a hard-fought away win over Westonbirt, with Freis and Hampson getting the goals, but Burgess can’t move up the table with them as they are scunnered 3-1 by relegation-threatened Draig Goch.

Oljestaden’s rejuvenation continues, but then their 3-3 draw with Iskara Daii might just be down to the fact that the Daii can’t seem to do anything but draw - this is their ninth in seventeen games, and the famous old Starblaydi club are languishing in twelfth, a whole sixteen points behind leaders 1830 Cathair. The Cathair club maintain their healthy six-point lead at the top of the table with yet another one-nothing win, this time with Wilfred Lidgley getting yet another goal from midfield to cap off the sort of display that throws question marks over his lack of involvement with the Apoxian national team.

Comunas Cougars 4–1 Hippion Overdrive

Cathair’s one-nothing victory over Tyrellia Titans is the capital club’s third one-nil win on the trot, and the plaudits must go to the all-female centre-half pairing of the experienced Andrea Molovi and teenager Ulrika Kinlasson, who have been increasingly effective and dependable as protection for keeper Ezin Gorde, - a capable goalie but with no international credentials whatsoever. Even Beltza Gaineratzaile is looking the part, having previously been a ‘weak link’ in the Cathair defence, while the side’s $400k signing of GAS international full-back Shaka Okboah, questioned at the time, appears to have been a master-stroke with the full-back quietly effective at stopping any and all attacks down the right flank.

Cathair cannot extend their lead at the top, though, with Comunas Cougar’s thrashing of Hippion Overdrive. The Overdrive are saved from being dragged three points closer to the drop zone by a Crystal Mertagne fightback away to Hallad Reavers, who are 2-1 up with twenty minutes to go before Zajzon, Dookes and Lucas all strike to ensure Mertagne stay put in the top six. Tele and Fligsive’s failure to overcome lowly Audioslavian opposition in the form of Shamrock Cathair and Oljestaden IF means just three points now separate Crystal Mertagne, in fourth, and Westonbirt City in eleventh, with Iskara Daii, Inter Tyrellia, Fligsive, Zubia and Telecontare in between.

At the bottom, a rare goal from Farf international full-back Vrotaoa Wii-Tzaara is the difference between Nostromo Meteorites and Draig Goch as the Syndicatians leapfrog their opponents out of the relegation zone.

Even though Lesko Pavillion are trundling along to what will in all likelihood be yet another nondescript mid-table finish, there are few teams who will attempt to argue that a trip to the Big Top is anything other than difficult, and 1830 Cathair find that out to their cost as they struggle to a two-all draw. The onus is on Comunas Cougars to overtake them with a tea-time Saturday trip to Bob’s Towing, but they, too, have to make do with a two-all draw as the top two of the LigAnaia stays exactly where it is. Burgess and Zozi both take advantage, winning away to Shamrock and Hippion respectively to edge closer to the top - Burgess are now level on points in second place - but Fligsive can’t make any headway whatsoever as they travel to Oljestaden and get crushed 4-2 - a result that heaps yet more pressure on Farell Kiter and relieves at least a little from the shoulders of Weveton Sporadic, who sees his side get to within just two points of safety.

Cazadores continue to huff and puff, but despite bashing on the door of Hallad Reavers’ straw house they can’t quite blow the Starblaydis in and have to settle for a two-two draw that, nevertheless, solidifies them in fifteenth position in the table. The draw keeps them above the league’s early leaders Foxchester Raiders, who now lie in eighteenth place having won just six of their nineteen games.

Fligsive are already out of contention for their Champions Cup group by the time of their visit to reigning champions 1896 Ebor, but a 1-1 draw is a good result for the Syndicatian champions as they bow out of the competition and drop down to the Globe Cup knockout phase, where they join 1830 Cathair and, surprisingly, Westonbirt as the LigAnaia's three Globe Cup representatives. Fligsive celebrate with a home victory over Inter which, though not a pretty match, at least nudges the side closer to the top six and the chance to play in UICA next season too. Westonbirt are not so lucky, losing away to Itzalovalle, and 1830 Cathair manage to slip up for the first time in months as they draw at home to Crystal Mertagne, their second draw on the bounce. This time, Comunas Cougars, who haven't had the distraction of the Globe Cup since their early elimination, can take advantage as they defeat rivals Tyrellia Titans at Community Stadium, and the Cathair giants' lead at the top is duly reduced to four from six points. Burgess, level on points with Comunas going into the weekend, can't follow their rivals as they draw at home to Ojestaden who continue their march back up to safety.

Oljestaden are now just two points away from the safety of nineteenth place, while Hallad Reavers cut their gap down from thirteen to eleven points with a rare victory over fellow relegation fodder Draig Goch.

Were the season to finish now, Cathair and Comunas would be the LigAnaia's entrants into the UICA Champions Cup, but the good news for the rest of the league is that Syndicatia's form in this year's competition may well open up the door to another team to compete in the CC. Right now, that team would be Burgess FC, and their promotion to the CC would open up the door to an extra Starblaydi team to enter, in this case Iskara Daii.

For most of the league, the distraction of UICA football is no longer an hinderance, but the league is about to go into a run of eight games in just four and a half weeks, taking in the festive period, ending with the first round of the CopAnaia.

Matchday twenty-one kicks off with a rip-roaring Cathair derby between leaders 1830 and struggling Cazadores. 1830 are by far the favourite and so its a surprise to everyone when, in front of millions of online viewers, they are scunnered three-one by their city rivals. RJ Styrn is the key once again, forcing mistakes from the 1830 Cathair defence time and time again in what must have been a bizarre spectacle for older Audioslavians - a small, fleet-footed female footballer in the colours of one of the nation's famous old sides, harrying and hustling two tall, broad shouldered and equally female centre-halves. Styrn scores one, makes another for Gaizka Omaexevarria and, finally, diverts an expertly placed cross by Zigor Jorda into the path of Andro Mendez to make it three-one.

Comunas Cougars know they have an opportunity to close the gap from four points to one, and there's no chance of them wasting it as they race into a three-goal lead against Lesko Pavillion, who can only reply late-on through Jaques Beadeu.

Oljestaden don't grab their own chance quite so well, and miss out on the opportunity to rise out of the relegation zone with a disappointing two-nil home defeat by Nostromo Meteorites.

Syndicatia's 'big' three are all now in the top seven, but only Magnaeus can close the gap with a 3-1 away win over Crystal Mertagne, who stay sixtth, as Burgess and Fligsive both succumb to draws away from home.

Zozi, in fifth, fare worse, losing 3-1 to the unpredictable Bob's Towing.

The other big teams, Iskara Daii and Telecontare, are in action with one another on the Sunday afternoon, and the famous old derby is won by the Daii through a single Stardust goal to nil as Tele's poor run of form continues.

Daii’s victory means that the ‘big eight’ of Magnaeus, Daii, Fligsive, Zozi, 1830, Burgess, Comunas and Tele are all stationed in the top ten, with the Syndicate’s Crystal Mertagne in sixth and Legalite challengers Inter Tyrellia in ninth. Westonbirt, who last season were a hair away from winning the league, sit down in eleventh.

Where once it looked like they were running away with the league, 1830 Cathair hadn’t won in three games going into saturday afternoon’s showdown with strugglers Draig Goch, and though Andrea Molovi - acting captain for the game in the absense of Ezin Gorde - breaks through with a goal on thirty minutes, a clumsy challenge by Rohan Cammers in the second half earns the midfielder his second red card of the season, and Draig promptly score from the free-kick. Though manager Andre-Luis Partico is obviously frustrated in the post-match interview, he does praise his team for hanging on with ten men and piles the pressure on Comunas Cougars, citing their inability to beat Crystal Mertagne and top the league is a testament to their lack of perceived ‘bottle’. Whether Comunas will shove Partico’s words down his throat remains to be seen, though Magnaeus aren’t duly worried by either side as they bring Cathair’s city rivals Cazadores over to Black Peak and, in front of a televised audience of millions, brutalises the smaller, frailer Cazadores team by four goals to nil, in doing so decreasing the gap between themselves and 1830 to just two points. Burgess beat Corinthian Spirits - now fourteenth and a shadow of the side who looked like dark horses for the title earlier on - by three goals to nil to move to just three points behind the leaders.

The big game comes on Sunday, with Fligsive FC taking on Iskara Daii in a battle between the two mid-table sides most unhappy with their position. In a tense encounter, Fligsive prevail through a solitary Hampson goal to nil. Fligsive, now sixth, move to within ten points of leaders 1830 Cathair, and all off a sudden the narrative of the nations' media outlets shifts from talk of a confidence-hit team being stuck in a rut to a repeat of the sort of late charge that saw the Fligsivians take the championship last season after having at one point been a dozen points behind the leaders...

Telecontarë 1–3 Fligsive FC

Three days on from their royal spanking by Magnaeus, Cazadores Cathair return home to find Comunas Cougars standing over their bed holding a paddle. The Cathair club put up a fight, but can’t quite wriggle from the Cougars’ claws as they are given their second four-nil beating in seventy-two hours. Comunas sit in a nearby pub, wipe the blood from their array of fetching leather torture implements and watch the Cazadores’ city rivals 1830 Cathair come from behind to beat Westonbirt City 2-1, at which point Comunas most likely curses and hails a cab back home to Legalese.

Back in slightly less scary territory, Iskara Daii lose at home to Burgess in a frankly piss-poor performance that ends with seats being thrown onto the turf and general 'rabble rabble rabble'ness from the incensed home fans. The sky-blue clad Burgess supporters sneak out of the stadium quietly and look up the updated league tables on their smartphones, which show the side still in fourth place, just three points behind the leaders.

Magnaeus keep up the pace with a 2-1 win over Draig Goch, in which Vince Urrea grabs a brace, before Thursday evening’s matches feature a relegation encounter between Oljestaden and Hallad Reavers that the former wins comfortably and a ‘big eight’ battle between Telecontare and Fligsive FC. Bookies are hard pressed to come up with a pre-match favourite but finally settle on Telecontare, who duly do them no favours by going two nil down within ten minutes - Freis and Eyseev for Fligsive - and ending up being beaten 3-1.

Bob’s Towing - they of the cinderella backstory - register an impressive two-nothing away win over struggling Lesko Pavillion, and it appears the team with the amusing name have no plans to become relegation fodder just yet.

The second half of the LigAnaia season kicks off slap-bang in the middle of the busy festive period and features a reverse of the opening day fixtures. The weekendd begins with a Saturday lunchtime encounter between AC Izotz Zubia and Fligsive FC - the outsiders for the LigAnaia championship and the LigAnaia champions themselves. The competing sides find themselves in fifth and sixth places respectively, with Zubia's early form giving way to a shaky run and Fligsive's early wobbles replaced by a steady drive from mid-table to the Globe Cup places, yet still with a large gap between themselves and title rivals 1830 Cathair.

Zozi have the better of the play on the cut-up surface and seem to deal better than their opponents with regards to the strong mountain wind, yet still somehow find themselves at 0-1 and 1-2 in the first half, as Bruce Freis and Dennis Horkawer-Rippel both pop up with scrambled finishess either side of a Jovellanos strike. Zozi spend much of the second half banging on the Fligsive door, finally breaking it down through Aaron Aiza's slick through-ball to Etamara Kulkkiia, who slots a finish under Scott for 2-2, at which score the match stayed.

The result does no favours for either team as, in a three o'clock kick-off, 1830 Cathair hit three past city rivals Shamrock for a comfortable win. Comunas and Magnaeus also win, but Burgess are turned over by Telecontare through a wonderful Toralasyr strike - a curling, dipping effort from the corner of the area that Bruce Millar can only watch drop into the top corner - in a result that sees the Syndicatian club drop six points behind the leaders, down into fourth place.

Matchday twenty-five is a string of mid-week fixtures ranging from the Tuesday afternoon to the Thursday evening, and each one seems as important as the last.

Tuesday's game sees Izotz Zubia travel to Lesko Pavillion and hit three past the sorry Syndicatians, who remain in peril in nineteenth position. Zozi close to within a point of Burgess, and hope the side slip up in the derby with Fligsive. Slip up they do, and in emphatic style. Burgess are slaughtered 3-0 on their own turf by a steadily improving Fligsive, who themselves close the gap between the two sides from six points to three.

Also in action on the Tuesday night are the best three Starblaydi teams, who all enjoy or endure contrasting fortunes. Iskara Daii take an important away win over Itzalovalle, leapfrogging their opponents in the process, while Telecontare suffer a disappointing two-nil defeat away to Nostromo, who now lie fourteenth and have seemingly dealt with their earlier relegation worries. Foxchester Raiders win 3-2 over Inter Tyrellia to round off the Tuesday.

Wednesday evening's games see both Comunas Cougars and Magnaeus City in action, with the second and third placed teams desperate to close the gap between themselves and leaders Cathair. For Comunas, a home win over Westonbirt is a must, but their visitors are one of three LigAnaia clubs in the Globe Cup knockouts for a reason, and never look second best in an entertaining 2-2 draw that sees Detzler twice on target for the home team, with replies coming from Curtis Théberge and Noah Kuehm.

Magnaeus take advantage of the Cougars' slip by utterly destroying Shamrock Cathair at Black Peak, rattling five goals past the beleaguered Audioslavians to just one reply. Hippion and Draig Goch draw 1-1 to round off the Wednesday, which ends with Magnaeus on top of the league and hoping 1830 slip up in Thursday's home encounter with Oljestaden.

If the Magnaeans had their fingers crossed, they could probably un-cross them after fourteen minutes of the Cathair game. Lawaai, Masters and Abrego all get on the scoresheet in the early going as Cathair race into a three goal lead, and the capital club rarely look back as they demolish an exceptionally hapless Oljestaden by six goals to nil, with Rohan Cammers coming on as a second half substitute to grab a late brace. Cammers celebrates his second goal by jogging up to the referee, delving a hand in his pocket and retrieving a red card, which he them proceeds to show to the ref. The referee, to his credit, shows good humour, pats Cammers on the back, and duly sends him off, ensuring the occasionally wonderful, occasionally sodding stupid Apoxian spends another three weeks on the side-lines.

The christmas fixture-pileup always throws up some unpredictable results, and few are quite as mindboggling as Saturday's game between Oljestaden - thrashed 6-0 in midweek - and Magnaeus - they of the 5-1 win in midweek. Onlookers are puzzled at just how much better the unpredictable Audioslavians are than their title-chasing rivals, and the full time whistle blows to a 2-0 scoreline and the sound of scratching heads from both sides of the support.

Shamrock Cathair, too, are in spoiling mood as they hold Comunas Cougars to a tired 0-0 draw at the Glass Bridge stadium, while Tele suffer another setback in defeat to KT Itzalovalle.

Fligsive and Burgess both win big, 5-2 and 3-0 respectively, with Izotz Zubia the embarassed recipients of the latter thrashing, to move closer to the stricken Comunas and Magneaus, but 1830 Cathair aren't hanging around. They may have been 3-1 down to Inter Tyrellia halfway through their trip to Legalese, but the team now being heralded as 'by far the best in Audioslavia' hit back to win 5-3 and pull five points clear at the top.

Cazadores win 3-1 over Tyrellia to cap off a double of Catharan wins over Tyrellian opposition while, in The Syndicate, Crystal Mertagne keep quietly keeping up with the top six in defeating Lesko Pavillion by three goals to two.

The first round of each association’s national cups sees just two real upsets across the board, but they’re both ‘biggies’. Telecontarë’s 1-0 defeat to Karak Ungor Chief’s is by far the shock of the round. Top flight Tele never looked in any real danger against neighbouring Chiefs, but a persistent failure to score made for some rather nervous football in the final minutes, and a last-ditch corner for the home side resulted in an 89th minute goal for the underdogs.

Tele, who have been in indifferent form in the league, were embarassed, but so were Inter Tyrellia, knocked out by SBLS by one goal to nil.

Elsewhere, Fligsive’s first round elimination is also about five rounds too early for the league champions, but the fact that their opponents are a strong Burgess side means Fligsive’s faces are markedly less red than the aforementioned upsetees.

Wilfred Lidgley's last-gasp winner for 1830 Cathair against Corinthian Spirits in Saturday's lunchtime kickoff ensures the capital club will retain their points gap for another week, but even the most hardened optimisits couldn't have predicted how many of their opponents would fail to keep up.

Zubia, in beating Crystal Mertagne away from home, technically did, but the sixth-placed side are almost out of contention for the title already, so far behind are they from the leaders. Comunas Cougars lose at home to Oljestaden, Telecontare slip up against lowly Hallad Reavers - now off the bottom of the table - Burgess lose to Nostromo and Fligsive fail to beat mid-table Itzalovalle as Cathair's lead over last season's champions extends to fourteen points with nineteen games to play.

Is there no-one who can put a solid run together? Magnaeus, perhaps, have the best argument for being on a ‘run’ as they lose their second match on the hop, this time away to Corinthian Spirits. Oljestaden’s push to a first glimpse of safety is halted by a bitterly disappointing home defeat to Hippion Overdrive, who nevertheless can’t leave the foot of the table due to Hallad Reavers and their holding on champions Fligsive to a 1-1 draw.

At the top, 1830 Cathair slip with a 1-1 draw away to Iskara Daii - not a bad result, but one that opens the door for Comunas Cougars to close the gap from eight points to six, and the Legalite giants do just that with a hard-fought victory away to Inter Tyrellia.

KT Itzalovalle 0–2 Nostromo Meteorites

A half-strength 1830 Cathair are stuffed in the AOCL in midweek, meaning the full side can turn their full attentions to Telecontare and the act of narrowly scraping past them at the 66 Arena, which they do to consolidate their lead at the top. Fligsive, still floundering in sixth, would love to at least pretend to keep pace with their Audioslavian rivals but, once again, find they can’t put together a run of matches when it counts, and the side are turned over by Foxchester on their visit to northern Starblaydia. Burgess, too, are frustrated as they can only manage a draw away to Hallad Reavers, with Peto Kartal rescuing that point with a late effort. The embattled Reavers’ reward for an impressively won point is to be dumped back on the bottom of the division once again as Hippion Overdrive win out three-two against an Inter side looking less and less the Globe Cup hopefuls they set out this season to be.

The big match of the weekend is Iskara Daii’s visit to Magnaeus City in Sunday’s tea-time kickoff. Daii are desperate to properly kickstart their season, but find themselves easily second best against a marauding Magnaeus who run in three goals to leave the reds to confront their own outraged supporters after the game.

Whereas the first round of the national cups had been largely uneventful, there are a number of scalps in round two. 1830 Cathair are at the arse-end of the biggest surprise as a weakened side capitulates 2-0 at home to second division Silexhera. Hallad Reavers are barely favourites away to Penningworth in a battle between the top of division two and the botom of division one, and Penningworth come away with a 1-0 home win.

Draig Goch are more annoyed than embarassed to be held to extra-time and penalties by Yellowjacket, especially as the visitos have the temerity to win on penalties in front of the DG supporters. Any embarassment the side feel in defeat is dwarfed by Magnaeus City’s humiliation. The high-flying LigAnaia side are more used to epic battles with rivals Fligsive than they are with low-key affairs against the likes of youth team P90 Fligsive. Magnaeus, however, struggle against the teenagers, who’s youthful exuberance wins out in extra-time as they young guns race to a shock 2-1 win.

A number of big games on matchday thirty: Magnaeus recover from their midweek nighmare to frustrate Starblaydi opposition for the second week in a row, winning out 1-0 against Telecontare (who are admittedly only tangientialy Starblaydi) while, elsewhere, Iskara Daii bounce back from last week’s bitter defeat to ram another spoke in the wheels of Comunas Cougars’ title chase, taking a two-nil victory and propelling themselves back up to eighth. Comunas remain third despite Izotz Zubia’s best efforts in putting five past local rivals KT Itzalovallee in a one-sided derby.

The big derby of the week, though, is as big a match as LigAnaia football gets: Fligsive versus 1830 Cathair. Cathair have had the better of recent meetings, winning the last two league games as well as a bitterly contested UICA Champions Cup fixture early the previous season, but the league leaders can’t quite repeat the feat as Fries and Taylor seal the win with goals either side of a solitary Cammers reply. Rohan Cammers is, again, sent-off late into an increasingly tense and occasionally violent affair, landing the winger another three week ban and bringing into question his useability in the 1830 Cathair squad. Cammers may well be able to turn two draws into wins over the course of a season, but his tendency to miss around eight games of it due to suspension are beginning to wear on the club and fans’ patience, not least after such a defeat to their rival capital side.

Fligsive’s win keeps them in sixth as Burgess beat Foxchester, but the champions remain a whole fourteen points behind the leaders, with less and less time and matches to close the gap.

After spoiling 1830’s attempt to extend their LigAnaia lead, Fligsive turn their attentions to second placed Magnaeus in Saturday’s tea-time fixture. Magnaeus can smell the opportunity to draw level with 1830, if only for a day, but Taylor’s fifty-fourth minute reply to Urrea’s opening goal, and Fligsive’s subsquent stubborn-ness in defence, restricts Magnaeus to a solitary point in a result that does neither side any favours.

1830, then, set out on Sunday to play a Burgess FC side who are by no means out of the title race just yet, despite the gap forming between themselves and fourth place. A tense first half generates little in the way of entertainment, but Lidgley’s well-taken opener brings the game to life, and Cathair find themselves under the kosh for most of the second half before a tiring Burgess fall prety to a quick Cathair counter-attack, which ends in Lawaai’s crisp finish for 2-0.

The weekend sees Comunas Cougars drop out of the top three for the first time since week eleven as they capitulate to Tele and lose by three. AC Izotz Zubia, on a quietly competent run, move into the final CC spot. Zozi, it appears, haven’t quite given up just yet, and the eight point gap between themselves and Cathair is not looking quite so insurmountable with less teams in the way.

There’s change, too, at the bottom, as Draig Goch - who’s defeat to Zozi enabled the Sierra club to move into the top three - fall below Hippion Overdrive who are victorious in an upset over Iskara Daii.

The biggest movers, however, are Oljestaden. Before matchday thirty they literally hadn’t been out of the relegation places all season, but Saturday’s 1-0 away win over Lesko Pavillion sees the side move up to a dizzy fifteenth in the table

Matchday Thirty-Two
AC Izotz Zubia 0–0 Hallad Reavers
KT Itzalovalle 3–1 Foxchester Raiders
Nostromo Meteorites 0–2 1830 Cathair FC
Burgess FC 2–1 Magnaeus City

International of Tyrellia 3–1 Lesko Pavillion
Oljestaden IF 1–1 Crystal Mertagne
Shamrock Cathair 0–0 Cazadores Cathair
Westonbirt City 4–1 Draig Goch FC

Zozi’s push is halted by Hallad Reavers, who defend resolutely during their 0-0 draw, but Comunas can’t capitalise as they, too, have their title aspirations spoiled by Fligsive FC. Magnaeus, too, are beaten as they travel to Burgess and leave with another loss on their scorecard.

The true victors on matchday thirty-two are 1830 Cathair. The struggles of the teams in second, third and fourh mean a win in Sunday’s trip to Nostromo would open up an eight point gap at the top of the table, and win they do with goals coming from Abrego and that man Lawaai once more.

It’s a tough midweek for the league’s UICA representatives as Cathair, Westonbirt and Fligsive all lose the first legs of the Globe Cup ties, but its better news for those sides in the league as Westonbirt secure a commendable draw with Izotz Zubia, who lose their third place back to Comunas Cougars (two-nil winners over Burgess FC), while Cathair and Fligsive both win. Cathair’s lead is now ten points, and surely there’s no stopping the big Audioslavians?

Does anyone want third place? Magnaeus are doing their best to steer clear of it by beating Itzalovalle away from home to stay second, but Comunas Cougars and Izotz Zubia both make a hash of games against Foxchester and Nostromo respectively to blow open the race for that final CC spot. Only six points now separate Comunas and Zozi from seventh placed Westonbirt, with Burgess and Fligsive now breathing down their necks, both sides possibly just a win away from third.

Cathair win away to Hallad Reavers, with Cammers scoring the goal in his return to quell the boos that rang out whenever he got the ball.

If the top seven are uncatchable (they probably aren’t) then the final GC spot is up for grabs, and as of matchday thirty-four three sides are tied for eighth place. Crystal, Inter and Tele, with an Iskara Daii side in torrid form just behind them on forty-nine points.

There are arguably nine Syndicatian clubs in action in midweek as Tenth Star Hasiera - a team from the south of Audioslavia, founded by Syndicatian immigrants disenfranchised by Crowley’s regime - host Silexhera. A 1-0 loss for the third tier club over the LigAnaia Two outfit, however, ensures this is the last time such an event happens for this season. An all third-flight affair between Ceilerden Harp - relegated from LigAnaia Two last season - and Clockwork FC ends with the former romping home to a 4-1 win, while the first of two all-LigAnaia clashes finishes with Oljestaden bowing out of the tournament and failing at the defensive of their crown. Zozi are the other winners of the Audioslavian quarter-finals, thrashing struggling Cazadores by five goals to one.

Though Audioslavia might have had a Syndicatian club in their quarter-finals, the quota of Audioslavian outfits remains at eight as Cedrus Soundgardia - formed by Audioslavian immigrants - travel to Tournetas in the Starblaydi quarter-final, losing one-nil. Corinthian Spirits overcome second division Penningworth and Foxchester traverse a tricky tie against Jhanna City, while Jhanna’s crosstown rivals Iskara Daii easily overcome Hippion Overdrive, 2-0 away from home.

Burgess continue their winning ways with a 3-0 win over Lesko Pavillion as Nostromo and Crystal Mertagne both traverse fixtures against lower-league opposition. The all L2 clash between Southern Ninestar and Beaconsby Flames goes to the former Globe Cup quaifiers Ninestar, who win 3-2.

Giantkillers Yellowjacket are destroyed 4-0 by Comunas Cougars in the quarter-finals of the Legalite Cup. The quarters see top flight teams winning across the board as Titans and Bob’s Towing win against Tiberian opposition. The only all-division-two clash sees the two best second-tier Legalite sides go at it, with Coastal United overcoming LC Capitals.

Oljestaden’s defence of their CopAnaia crown may be over, but the side refuse to let the disappointment get them down as they come from two goals behind to share a draw with Westonbirt City, with goals arriving from Ivan Haarsted and Jonathan Faña for the visitors after Theberge’s first-half brace. At the league’s summit, 1830 Cathair have no intention of letting their ten point lead slip as they defeat Foxchester Raiders in Saturday lunchtime’s kick off, scoring through Lawaii. The win puts pressure on the chasers, most of whom kick off their games at three o’clock knowing that its win or bust, and while Magnaeus City have little trouble in defeating Hallad Reavers through the goal-scoring prowess of Alisdair Green and Vince Urrea, Burgess FC “blow it out of [their] collective arses” (in the words of a particularly erudite Gregorz van der Riise) by contriving to get hammered 4-1 by Bob’s Towing. Legalite high-flyers Comunas, too, stutter as they go down 1-0 to an Adam Cooper strike as Itzalovalle upset the team now three points adrift of the Champions Cup spots.

Fligsive, sixteen points back in the title race, are in desperate need of points if they’re to even make the Champions Cup, but a scrappy and artless game with Tyrellia Titans ends with their Legalite hosts thrashing home a late equaliser through Quintus Oxboro, sparking jeers in the away end and, no doubt, celebrations throughout most of Cathair.

One part of the Audioslavian capital that won’t be celebrating is the Grassmarket region, who’s home team, Shamrock, are beaten again and look in real danger of relegation, now seven points adrift of the safety zone. Their conquerors, Zozi, move up to third.

Oljestaden IF 3–2 Shamrock Cathair

As with last week, leaders 1830 Cathair kick off the weekend’s action. This time, however, a trip to Sierran rivals Izotz Zubia beckons, and the Audioslavian champions can do nothing to stop their challengers taking the spoils with a two-nil victory largely orchestrated by Turorian signing Etamara Kulkkiia, who scores the first and sets the second up for Jaurtiketa Buruz to blast home. Cathair are beaten but unbowed, and though their lead over third has slipped from fifteen points to ‘just’ twelve, Magnaeus can close the gap to seven if the second-placed team can overcome Foxchester Raiders in Starblaydia. It’s a miserable, freezing cold Sunday afternoon by the time Magnaeus take the field in the north of the mauve lands, and what little encouragement Magnaeus can get by the fact that Comunas and Crystal Mertagne have both, just the day before, gone to Starblaydi stadiums and won, is in little evidence as Foxchester run out two-nil winners, robbing Magnaeus of the chance to close the gap on the leaders.

Ten games now remain for Magnaeus to make up that ten point gap, but their task is not quite as arduous as that of Fligsive, who’s bitterly disappointing home defeat to lowly Lesko Pavillion means the gap between themselves and the Audioslavians stays at a whopping eighteen points.

Inter stuff Shamrock on Saturday morning, Iskara Daii ram five goals past Draig Goch in the afternoon while Westonbirt run roughshod over a sorry looking Corinthian Spirits team who are now well into the relegation zone. The three wins allow the teams to pull away from Crystal Mertagne in the race for the last two Globe Cup spots, as the Crystals lose two-nil at home to Fligsive, who are motoring and pulling ever closer to Zozi and Comunas, who both drop points to mid-table opposition.

The big game of the weekend, though, is Sunday’s meeting of the top two teams. Magnaeus City, in second place, host 1830 Cathair, ten points clear in the first, in a match billed as the final opportunity for anyone to open up the title race and stop the Audioslavian capital club from waltzing to a second title in three seasons.

It’s the first day of spring in Magnaeus and a packed home crowd - some of them in shorts and tee-shirts in the ‘sweltering’ fourteen degrees celsius - roar on an inspired first half performance for Magnaeus. The club of the black peak lay siege onto a Cathair goal in a lightning-paced opening ten minutes, and its just after the quarter-hour that the first goal is inevitably scored. To the surprise of the casual observer, however, its the side in blue and white stripes that opens the scoring, and not the side who’s navy blue hexagonal-patterned shirts have been dancing all over one side of the pitch. Wilfred Lidgley intercepts an errant pass by Ryan Booker. skips forward a few paces with his head up, searching for a long ball over the top to kick-start a quick counter-attack, and though striker Viji-mara Lawaai is a little slow on his thirty-five year-old legs in making up the ground, the fast and furious Guayabalese winger Oliver Abrego is sprinting down the opposite wing, and Lidgley’s pass - low, hard, no curl, just straight through what little gaps there were in the high line of Magnaeus’s defence - is expertly weighted to roll closer to Abrego than Archie Thorpe, the Magnaeus goalie, who has sprinted from his area to deal with the through-ball. It’s apparent as Abrego comes to meet the ball that he has four yards on the goalie, but Thorpe refuses to look completely stupid and banks on Abrego trying to shoot first-time from fully thirty yards, out on the right flank. Thorpe spreads himself, making sure t keep his arms behind is back so far out of his area, and manages to get a head to Abrego’s attempted lofted shot. The ball ricochets away wildly and looks to be falling to the safety of Barangayan defender Ian Angeles, but Angeles’ chest control is stiff and awkward, and the bouncing ball is met by Lawaai, by now a part of the attack, who meets the ball first time and sweeps it high, into the low Magnaean sun, and down underneath the bar for 0-1.

Magnaeus’s players are obviously shaken by the goal, having dominated so far, and though the crowd take the setback in their side and attempt to roar on the home side, Cathair can bring themselves back into the game and, by forty minutes, are two nil ahead as Rohan Cammers - this time earning a free kick rather than needlessly giving one away - curls a beautifully weighted effort over the wall and into the corner for 0-2.

Francois Cardeau has his work cut out for him for Magnaeus City’s half-time team-talk. but whatever the manager said appears to work as Magnaeus commence the second half in much the same vein as they started the first, only this time with a little more in the way of controlled aggression. Cathair still look dangerous, but the lead-reducing goal comes on fifty-five minutes courtesy of that man again Vince Urrea. Urrea, like his opponent Lawaai, is in with a shout of finishing as the league’s top scorer by the end of the season, and Urrea helps his cause with a second goal on sixty-eight minutes, a low, driven shot from Higgs’s clever flicked pass, that brings a huge roar from the home support.

Magnaeus, now, are in complete control, and a memorable comeback appears to be sealed as Antonio Rosado breaks into the box to race onto a Higgs through ball, takes a touch, and finishes cheekily through the legs of Ezin Gorde.

The home fans are ecstatic, and for ten minutes the Magnaean faitfhful are the only thing audible for two-hundred yards in any direction for those not stood four planck lengths away from an ambulance siren fed through an arena PA system in a thunder-storm on independence day during a nuclear test.

Compare and contrast with the silence that came on eighty-eight minutes. A silence that could make a earmuff convention for mute cloth puppets held in the heliopause sound like a forty elephants tumbling down a spiral staircase made of cymbals.

1830 Cathair’s equaliser comes against the run of play (again), with the side temporarily down to ten men as Lawaai sits on the half-way line nursing a bout of leg-cramp. A rare foray into the Magnaeus half seems to end with Ryan Booker’s interception of a casual square ball by Cammers, but Booker himself is caught in possession while assessing the myriad options open to him with regards to possible forward passes, and the ball breaks for Andrea Molovi who saunters forward, head up, looking for a possible pass before the centre-half suffers a nose-bleed from being too far up the pitch. With nothing on, and with Booker racing to regain possession, Molovi suffers a rush of blood to the head and starts to believe that she can score a goal from around forty-five yards away. Molovi, head down, sprints towards the ball and swings a right foot at it - through it - and sends it hurtling and spinning towards the Magnaeus goal. Keeper Archie Thorpe has quick enough feet to get behind the ball but, in a fatal lapse of concentration, lets it squirm through his hands and off the top of his shoulder. The ball loops up into the air and drops under the bar, beyond the desperate, flailing grasp of the stricken goalkeeper, and 1830 Cathair have somehow wrested a draw from a game they could have lost five-nil and not had cause to complain.

Their lead remains at ten points. Cathair are looking nigh-on uncatchable. Magnaeus look, as they leave the field, like they’ve just photographed a bigfoot-unicorn alien with the cap still on their camera.

It’s semi-final time in each of the national cups, and the big story is Starblaydi favourites Iskara Daii falling 2-1 to Corinthian Spirits. Foxchester beat Tournetas 5-0 to ensure an all LigAnaia One final in the purple region.

The other favourites have more joy. Zozi beat Ceilerden Harp and go into an Audioslavian final against local rivals Itzalovalle who are victorious 3-2 over Silexhera. Burgess crush Nostromo 4-0, and though Southern Ninestar have a strong history in the cup competitions they can’t quite beat Crystal Mertagne.

In Legalese, Comunas are victorious over Coastal United, while struggling Tyrellia Titans pick up a win over Bob’s Towing to set up an all-islander final.

International of Tyrellia 1–1 Oljestaden IF

Not content with giving us a clash between first and second the previous week, the LigAnaia fixture list decides on first versus fourth and second versus third for matchday thirty-eight. 1830 Cathair are clear favourites to win out over a struggling Comunas Cougars, but Lawaai’s first half strike isn’t enough to put away the Legalite champions as Masters rises at the far post to nod home the equaliser and ensure the points are shared. Magnaeus, then, have their upteenth opportunity to close the gap. Magnaeus, for the umpteenth time, blow it out their arses and succumb to defeat to Izotz Zubia, who leapfrog their opponents and ensure that the weekend ends with two Audioslavian clubs atop the division.

Fligsive, Burgess and the Daii all win, and the struggles of Comunas Cougars and Magnaeus in putting wins together appears to be properly opening up the race to the two Champions Cup spots below the leaders. The gap between second and sixth, previously a yawning, gaping chasm, is now down to just six points.

Hippion Overdrive 1–1 1830 Cathair FC
Comunas Cougars 0–0 Magnaeus City

Comunas Cougars nil, Magnaeus City nil. The fourth “absolutely sodding huge” game in three weeks is the third to end in a draw, and the result helps neither party in any way whatsoever. AC Izotz Zubia’s loss to Inter, however, ensures the Legalites continue to knock on the Globe Cup door while Zozi lose ground in the title race. Cathair, again, can’t manage a win as they’re held by lowly Hippion Overdrive, but the fact that whichever team occupies the second and third places in the league sporadically combust at the mere sight of a football helps ensure that their supposed two dropped points actually translates as an increase in their lead at the top of the table from ten points to eleven.

Cathair, surely, have won the league by now. Surely?

Corinthian Spirits 1–3 International of Tyrellia

Though neither Magnaeus, Zozi or the Cougars can close the gap, its worth noting that, had International of Tyrellia been in second place instead, they’d have almost certainly dragged 1830 back into second by now. The Legalite club, in thrashing Corinthian Spirits and adding to the Starblaydi’s misery, move up into eighth and, with Westonbirt, Itzalovalle and Crystal Mertagne all fading in the final stretch, look to be the favourites for that final Globe Cup place.

Iskara Daii, just ahead of them, have bigger fish to fry, and the famous old club’s four-one demolition of Oljestaden (who by now are pretty much safe from relegation and are just eager for a disappointing season to end) pushes them to within seven points of the Champions Cup places. The Daii, desperately poor for most of the season, have been given a glimmer of hope to go with their late season form. Fligsive, too, have grabbed the bull by the horns and, after having spent much of the season in mid-table, confusing and frustrating their own fans who have found it difficult to believe how the side could go from league champions to also-rans in just eight months, have now broken into the CC places themselves. and are pushing Magnaeus for second place. City keep their noses in front by rattling four goals past Hippion Overdrive, Cathair keep their lead at the top with victory over Bob’s Towing by a single Olver Abrego goal to nil, but the biggest game of the weekend is a huge showdown between Comunas and Izotz Zubia. In a tense, tactical affair at the Soldaduak Eremuan, Comunas edge through with a Detzler goal that keeps the Legalites within three points of third place, and puts them level with their defeated opposition.

Corinthian Sprits 1–0 Foxchester Raiders

Legalite Cup Final
Comunas Cougars 0–1 Tyrellia Titans

Each nation’s Cygnus Cup representatives are decided over four matches between Tuesday and Thursday.

Tuesday’s match sees Itzalovalle play Izotz Zubia, and the ‘other’ Sierra club are desperate to get one over their regional rivals. AC Izotz Zubia, however, are in no mood to capitulate, and a 3-1 win secures the side in pink and silver their first Audioslavian Cup.

In Syndicatia, Burgess thrash Crystal Mertagne in a one-sided final at the Flynn Arena, while Wednesday’s final in the purple section ends with Corinthian Spirits taking a deserved victory - only their second item of silverware since the seventh season of the Liga Starblaydia.

There is a shock in store for Comunas in the Legalite final on Thursday as a determined Tyrellia Titans team take the spoils, hoisting the Federation Open Cup once again at National Stadium, ensuring their participation in next season’s Cygnus Cup.

The national cup winners now go into a playoff to decide which of the four associations gets to send their cup winner to the Globe Cup.

Hippion Overdrive 0–1 Comunas Cougars

Tearing ourselves away from the title race for one second, Hallad Reavers’ form has been, frankly, stupifying. The club, tethered to the bottom of the league for so long, have strung some wins together - the latest at the expense of a Crystal Mertagne side suffering a complete loss of form - and have not only overtaken Shamrock Cathair to wrest themselves from twenty-fourth, despite having been eight points adrift of the Cathair club only weeks ago, but also find themselves potentially three wins from safety. Tyrellia Titans, the club in the spot above the drop zone, can’t wrench themselves away from the precipice as they suffer a defeat to 1830 Cathair that all but decides the title race.

6 Comunas Cougars 41 22 8 11 71 42 +29 74
7 Iskara Daii     41 19 13 9 65 41 +24 70

Magnaeus City’s rather pathetic capitulation in their four-one shellacking by the relatively ordinary Bob’s Towing might not have completely derailed their season, but the side are looking absolutely nothing like the team that, for ninety minutes against 1830 Cathair, looked to be dragging the leaders down into the mix for a thrilling finale. Zozi and the Cougars both win, but so do Fligsive who, in defeating now-bottom Shamrock away from home, go into second place, two points ahead of the trio of Magnaeus, Burgess and Zozi and three clear of Comunas. Iskara Daii victorious over Inter by a wide margin, aren’t even out of the Champions Cup running themselves. The title race may be all but over, but the question of which teams will be going into UICA competition on the orange side is far from answered with just five games to go and fifteen points to play for.

Hallad Reavers grab three of those fifteen points as they stun Cazadores, leap from Hippion and drag themselves ever closer to the most unlikely study in escapology since Houdini himself was booked into a gig forty years after having died. Only Tyrellia Titans’ scraped 1-1 draw away to Magnaeus City keeps the gap between Hallad and themselves at five points, rather than four, and that brings us rather neatly back to the title hunt.

7 Iskara Daii         42 20 13 9 67 41 +26 73

Comunas Cougars have the chance to pull themselves up to fourth on Sunday afternooon., but they are instead rather unceremoniously thrashed three-nil on their own pitch, their executioners being Bob’s Towing, who have rather found a niche for themselves in beheading the supposed big guns. The result leaves the gap open for Magnaeus and Burgess, but the former’s 1-1 draw with the Titans is matched in ineptitude only by Burgess’s inabiity to put away bottom side Shamrock Cathair, and their proliferation allows Zozi to march into third place with a commanding win over Overdrive.

Fligsive are dominant in defeating Oljestaden, but the win isn’t enough as 1830 Cathair, on a jubilant occasion at the sixty-six stadium, put four past Lesko Pavillion and move so close to the LigAnaia title they can almost touch it. One draw in the next four games, and the league trophy heads back to Audioslavian capital.

7 Burgess FC     43 23 7  13 73 52 +21 76

It’s an odd weekend at the top as Burgess suffer a 3-0 scunnering by Oljestaden in a result that would have completely dashed the easterners hopes had Fligsive also not contrived to lose, stuffed 3-1 by an Inter side desperate to keep ahead of Itzalovalle and Westonbirt and grab that final Globe Cup place.

Fligsive’s defeat means that Cathair are champions no matter what happens between them and Crystal Mertagne, which is handy as the Crystals beat a distracted Cathair by three goals to two.

Cathair, as expected, are champions, but the fat lady is yet to sing the names of most of the other teams. Burgess’s slip allows Iskara Daii to overtake them with victory over AC Izotz Zubia, who drop out of the top three as Magnaeus scrape past Lesko Pavillion. Comunas Cougars beat Tyrellia Titans, but the only team that can take advantage of the Titans’ slip at the bottom of the table are Draig Goch who, in abrubtly halting Hallad Reavers’s fightback with a three nil victory in Legalese, bring themselves to within two points of safety.

With three games left to play, no side is yet completely without hope when it comes to the relegation battle, but Shamrock are favourites for the drop, needing to win all three games to stand a chance of finishing nineteenth.

It’s all change among chasing pack as Comunas jump from fifth to second with victory over Lesko Pavillion as Fligsive somehow contrive to lose to Corinthian Spirits. The Starblaydi club, level on points with nineteenth placed Titans but with a goal difference that keeps them in the relegation zone, if only by three goals, are desperate for the Titans to lose, but a barnstorming relegation six-pointer with Hippion sees the Legalites victorious. The win means that Shamrock Cathair and Hallad Reavers, who both emerge with credible draws on this fateful day, are now mathematically relegated, with Hippion Overdrive teetering over the precipice. Draig Goch, who’s season has crumbled since christmas, really need a win over Foxchester Raiders, but the Starblaydis are simply too strong and escape with a draw, meaning the Legalites have to make up four points in two games to survive.

Draig Goch are in desperate need of all three points if they’re to stay up, and go into their home encounter with 1830 Cathair hopeful that the champions elect have filled up on champagne before the game. No such luck. Draig Goch lose by three goals, and are the fourth team relegated from the LigAnaia after Hippion, one nil losers against Lesko Pavillion, fall before them. Corinthian Spirits have a brief, fleeting flirtation with safety as they earn a commendable draw with high-flyers Burgess, but Tyrellia Titans’ draw with Bob’s Towing on the Sunday ensures that the battle to avoid that final relegation spot will go down to the last day of the season.

7 Iskara Daii     45 21 14 10 69 45 +24 77

And at the top? It’s almost as if none of these sides want to be in the Champions Cup next season. Not including Cathair, of course, and, to be fair, not including Fligsive either. The Syndiatian capital club are the only top side to win, and emphatically so, three nil over Iskara Daii, to ensure a final day draw will see them not only enter the CC, but also crowned champions of The Inevitable Syndicate for the third time running. Magnaeus, Zozi, the Cougars and Burgess, all within a point of one another, somehow contrive to all draw on what has to be the chokingest weekend of the season. Daii’s loss to Fligsive puts the Starblaydi champions out of contention for the Champions Cup, but the side can console themselves with the fact that they have run away with the Starblaydi championship.

Fligsive FC 2–1 Telecontarë

1830 Cathair’s 5-1 humiliation of Westonbirt is a fitting finish for the capital club, who ensure that they win the title by an emphatic fifteen points - thirteen more than their previous winning distance. Fligsive and Comunas knew, going into the weekend, that victories would see both sides secure Champions Cup football next season, and both manage to do just enough to win, with Fligsive overcoming Tele and Comunas beating Cazadores 1-0 at home, to the chagrin of Burgess and Izotz Zubia, who both pick up wins. that would have propelled them into the top three otherwise.

Magnaeus, in being held by relegated Draig Goch, end the season with only the Globe Cup to look forward to come July - a bitterly disappointing consolation prize after spending so long in the top three. Lower down, Inter secure the final Globe Cup spot with a draw against an Itzalovalle side who needed an eight goal win against the Legalites to leapfrog them into eighth, and never looked close to the feat at all, with the match ending nil-all.

At the bottom, the other Tyrellia club need to win, and hope fellow relegation candidates Corinthian Spirits don’t better their win by three goals. The Titans are a goal down early against Zozi, and a fervent away support at Corinthian Spirits tries to will their side on, but to no avail as Nostromo run out 2-1 winners and condemn a third Starblaydi club to the ignomy of relegation.

Hallad Reavers, they of the ill-advised love-affair with the bottom of the table, win on the final day over an Oljestaden team probably more concerned with their upcoming holidays to ensure they finish just five points shy of safety - a remarkable achievement given their form for most of the season.

CopAnaia Final
Corinthian Spirits 1-3 Tyrellia Titans

Outwith the three relegated Starblaydis, the one side most upset at Starblaydi capitulation in the top flight are Bauelaire Tulips - LigAnaia Two champions by five points - who are denied promotion by the ‘minimum four per association’ rule of the top flight, which demands a Starblaydi club be promoted in their stead. The honour falls to Hecia, down in fifth, to join the big boys in the reduced twenty-team league next season.

The bottom half of the LigAnaia Two are all given the dreaded ‘R’ in post-season, as the LigAnaia announce the formation of two leagues in the third tier - the 'North and Islands' league for Audioslavian and Starblaydi teams, along with representatives from Western Sunrise Islands and Perlasilangan, and a 'Calanian' league for teams representing Legalese, the Syndicate and newcomers Ibex, who will bring a hoofball feel to the lower leagues next season. The new leagues are referred to as 'North' and 'South' for short.

The big news comes in the weeks following the season, as Lesko Pavillion, apparently safe in eighteenth place, discover that they are actually staring relegation full in the face due to Legalese’s flirtation with the top thirty-two in the UICA coefficients. The LigAnaia rules state that the two primary associations must have as many teams in the top flight as they have UICA places, and Draig Goch’s relegation mean Legalese are one shy. Lesko must wait anxiously for the new rankings to be published by UICA, but with the Legalites sitting currently in 33rd in the table, no one in Pavillion is particularly optimistic about their chances of top-tier football next season.

The team who may well be coming up are LC Capitals, but even they must keep the champagne on ice. Legalese may well jump into UICA’s top thirty-two, but should Audioslavia overtake them in the coefficients, then it will be an Audioslavian club, and not a Legalite club, that gets promoted instead, meaning Moreazerua are in for a return to the top flight despite finishing just sixth in the LigAnaia Two.

Suffice to say, the LigAnaia has come under heavy flak for rendering a competitive division two almost meaningless, and changes in the rules of who gets promoted are expected next season.

The bottom line, of course, has to be 1830 Cathair's dominance in winning the title by a ridiculous fifteen points. One can expect plenty of movement in the transfer market in the coming months. Aside from likely transfer activity from Vanor-owned Telecontare and the richer Syndicatian teams, one team most likely looking to strengthen are Tyrellia Titans. The side will be representing the LigAnaia in next season's Globe Cup next season after their victory in the Legalite Cup (given the honour of supplying the LigAnaia's sixth Globe Cup spot by virtue of the late-season supercup, which Titans won), and will want not only to succeed in at least reaching the group stage, but also to improve on their lowly league position this season.

Despite a lengthy incubation process, many across the Valoria System (Vettrera & it's protectorate Oakbrook and Calvarie) were excited to see the establishment of the Pan-Valorian Soccer League. The entire system was divided into 40 separate areas and each established a soccer program. Despite the difficulties in finding enough wealthy investors to get the league started, the league went smoothly for this, it's inaugural year. Teams were divided into two tiers based on the size of their fan-bases, and a standard relegation/promotion system was set up between the two leagues based on regular season results. However, in qualifying for the Champion's Cup, Globe Cup, and Series B Cup, several different formats were necessary.

For the Champion's Cup, the regular season winner automatically qualifies.

For the Globe Cup, the 2nd and 3rd place regular season teams automatically take slots, with the Final Slot going to
A: The Champion of the Post-Season
B: The 4th Place Regular Season Team given the champion of the post-season already qualified.

For the Series B Cup the top 2 regular season teams (those being promoted) automatically qualify,
Then the teams that place 1st/2nd in the Series B Cup also earn bids.
In the event that one or more teams have already qualified to the Series B Cup, they are awarded based on regular season record.

Seeing as the Valoria System has stake in both Atlantian Oceania and Esportiva, entry into the CEdC and AOCL is complex, and will unfortunately have to be sporadic. This year, seeing as the champion is from Vettrera (which is located in Esportiva) they will enter into the CEdC format. The champion + The next best regular season team from Vettrera qualified (in this case that was Notus).

Welcome to one of the most exotic leagues of the multiverse. The Ligue Majeure du Football du Kitsunia opens its' gateways for another fantastic season.

A debuting, of sorts, league as the LMF-K welcomes a new second tier doesn't seem to see so much difference. Last season's champions Cápitale Legión continue to look towards a rather easy win but remain unsure of it, specially after the Legión ended up losing national team defender Lione Zarastrusesc thanks to a small wage fix from Sioux Cruisero. Regardless, they are still one of the roughest teams, but this change gives enough space for Wolfenstade Ehrgeiz. Being the second placed team of last season, the Ehrgeiz have focused on keeping their roster, specially goal magnet Helena Martí on the front. Their other headaches however, take shape on three other teams from outside the core. Ostreine Juvene, Petit Ligue champions have promoted some players from that squad, including Sunrisian nekonian Meowti Kitty-Kitty and believe that this handsome striker will guide them through this season. Cápitale Soeurs, the designated geographical rivals of the Legión have shown an increase on form after a rough friendly season against small teams from Northern Sunrise Islands' Liga Lusófona. Rounding out the contenders, Serebii Arceus, the club focused mostly on employing Pokémon has finally achieved a success of sorts after bringing their wall down and having their first signed up player from outside the "Les Marilles" barrier by signing in Elise Sioux, another Legión drop out.

The rest of the table varies on special degrees. Santerbourg Frontière, Guerriers Aztèques, Bonanza Saints and Rimouski Sous-Marina have enough talent to keep around the top half and maybe even contending a Globe Cup spot, but sadly, last season wasn't exactly pretty with all of them, specially Rimouski. Modelle Australes has arrived as a surprise on the top half, but now wants to keep up, together with Soleis Rois-et-Reines. Now alone as the sole Fortune team, Fortune Métropolites hasn't spent much on what it seems to be one of the darkest seasons at Fortune. Bellemont Ruritáin has considered their latest results a step on the right direction, while Orange Mécanique, Avalon United, Montagnard Novabern and Caen Draveurs don't even know how they ended up that low. Three teams will have the questionable honor of being the first three teams to be relegated into the Deuxieme Division.

Or just the second division if you don't like fancy French. Relegated last season, Olympique Rochefort now see themselves as contenders for a return, but somehow they still play second fiddle to the debuting Sioux Cruisero, now with Lione Zarastrusesc as the star of the rising crusader. The other ten teams have nothing special, but could at least be considered as contenders on yo-yoing: Fantasie Raisiny, Montblanc Azura, Cápitale Nationalet, Vallynais Minn, Neuf Solleana Eliséns, Fortune Rôdeurs, Pone-de-Pon Magdamallet, Catavelles La Velle and Croix Bleue Pocohamec.

After a helpful season ended up with most of the gate keepers, UNCAP is the last one of a kind. Not that other teams participating aren't of the same style, but the league now happens to be filled of LMF-K acceptable teams. The catch? Who will be the two teams to qualify to it?

SEASON		PREMIERE CHAMPION	DEUXIEME CHAMPION	CHAMMPIONAT NATIONAL
I		Cápitale Legión (1st)				Sioux Cruisero (1st)

The league progressed calmly, bar a couple of calls that the Kitsunians should get themselves on a side regarding the Corvidae. What didn't roll calmly was Cápitale Legión's season. A season that started with a loss to Santerbourg Frontière at the Stade de Glore did not lead to their expectations as the team wouldn't even get close of the top spot of the league, somehow finding themselves at the last spot to the Globe Cup. Wolfenstade Ehrgeiz too failed to use the lack of a Legión at... well, Legión and ended up busting themselves out of the title picture on the last weeks handing the title to the actual champion, Serebii Arceus. The team from the Lorei-to region went unstoppable, finally earning the silverware after a draw against Fortune Métropolites while Wolfenstade floundered against Santerbourg Frontière. The Souers and Frontière both considered their seasons to be a major success, even though Santerbourg fell short of the Globe Cup spot.

The other side of the ladder saw a surprising relegation as Soleis Rois-et-Reines fell flat from the middle grounds of the table, being followed by the Caen Draveurs who continue to fail to represent the image of the town that has raised Kitsunia-Deesse's UICA Club of the Century.

After losing Zarastrusesc to, surprisingly, pregnancy, Sioux floundered on their first season at the LMF-K, reminding none of the quality that they brought on the Chammpionat National. Rochefort, on the other hand, leaped back to the top of the pyramid and with a bit of luck and help from a surprisingly good Catavelles La Velle, Olympique returns as Deuxieme Champion. The team from Rochefort, however, ends up being joined by two teams who continue to rise from the CN: Werder Sabrewulf is now the second team from Wolfenstade on the lead and Vallynais Minn surprisingly takes the third place over the also surprising Cápitale Nationalet who leaves this season with a spot at the SBCC. Matthew City Rangers' farm team at Kitsunia-Deesse, the Rôdeurs end up on fifth.

Talking about upsets, UNCAP's second season at the CN ends up being a waste, being saved from the regionals as a result of two teams getting promoted as Nativa Miraculé and Rottweiler Hollenhunden are now officially LMF-K teams. Collégie International has an impressive debut season, Phoneticae stops Uglenort dead on its tracks as the second Farm Team to possibly get promoted. The reason behind Collégie International not benig promoted is the lack of LMF-K associated status, which would involve being professional. A list of associated sides will follow the table.

Filling up the two vacancies and replacing Chocola Delicatesse, after a playoff, two associated sides in the shape of Yi-Pin Fumani and Joumex Panteroux with the other team being Pro but still not associated Ariakias Citizen.

Riznicka City leads crosstown rivals Dinamo Riznicka at the top of the table despite losing in the first Riznicka derby by a score of 3-0. The City defense has been spotless as of late, giving up only 6 goals in the last 8 games. Kadlec of Spartka Misija has the golden boot so far with 6 goals netted, but he has not been able to do enough to keep his team in the top half of the table. Partisan is at the bottom with only 4 points and an abysmal -19 goal differential, with there one bright sport being a week 2 victory over Kral United, who were expected to contend for the title. United find themselves in ninth, well off of the pace at the top of the table.

Novach Cup: Season 1

Quarterfinals

Athletic Oznaca 0–3 Dinamo Riznicka
Kral United 5–1 Olympic Prednic
Rocket Luka 1–3 Spartka Misija
Arsenal Sumar 0–1 FK Sever

With title leaders Riznicka City eliminated previously, this tournament is wide open. Dinamo Riznicka might be considered the favorites at this point, advancing 3-0 over Athletic Oznaca. Kral is looking much better in cup play than in league play, drubbing Olympic Prednic 5-1. Spartka Misija defeated Rocket Luka 3-1, with Kadlec continuing his hot start with a brace. FK Sever edged out Arsenal Sumar 1-0, with the lone goal coming from Ateljevic.

The second quarter of the season has provided many twists and turns, with the table turned upside down. Arsenal Sumar, fourth after 9 games, has moved into the first spot. More miraculously, Kral United, formerly second from the bottom, have moved into second at the top with a remarkable run of form, winning 6 of their last 9 games, while only losing 1. Riznicka City, formerly top of the table, have dropped to fifth, taking only one victory from their last nine games, and rivals Dinamo Riznicka have dropped to sixth. Partisan Osveta remains in last place with only 13 points. Filipov of Dinamo is now in the lead for the golden boot, with 11 goals scored.

Novach Cup: Season 1

Semifinals

Kral United 5–5 Spartka Misija (6–5 AET)
Dinamo Riznicka 0–1 FK Sever

The semifinals of the Novach Cup gave viewers two great games to watch. In the first tie, Kral United faced Spartka Misija. Kral continued their good goalscoring form in the cup, scoring 4 goals in the first half to open a 4-1 lead. But Spartka Misija came back, with Kadlec scoring two goals to bring Misija back to within one. Kral scored once more in the seventy-fifth minute, and most commentators concluded the game was finished. However, substitute Kladivo provided a spark for Spartka, scoring in the eighty-fourth minute and assisting on a goal by Sanel that took the game to extra time. In the first extra time period, both teams were held scoreless. In the second period however, Vlcek headed home a corner from Skalicky to send United into the final match. The second tie was more of a defensive battle than an offensive onslaught. Both teams were quiet in the first half, with each team only taking a few shots on goal. The same was seen for most of the second half, with neither team being able to make deep inroads into their opponent's defense. In the seventy-ninth minute, though, a run by Starosta resulted in his being brought down in the box by Hruska on a silly challenge by the youngster. Dinamo keeper Stadnik then stopped Starosta's penalty kick, but he was unable to stop the rebound effort by Ateljevic. Sever ran out the clock to defeat Dinamo and advance to face Kral in the final. Kral will be heavily favored to win the final, especially with their form of late, but Sever will not roll over and give them the trophy.

Kral United have completed their escape from the bottom, finding themselves in first place with nine games to go. The top has been relatively stable, besides for the case of Arsenal Sumar, who have faded from first to fifth over the last nine games. FK Sever has moved up from seventh to fourth behind a good run of form from Starosta. Riznicka City has switched places with United, dropping from first after 9 games to ninth after 27. Manager Stojanovic is on the hot seat and will be sacked if results do not improve. To be fair to City, they have had to deal with a swath of injuries, including to captain Sedlak. Partisan remains far behind the rest of the league with only 19 points. On the bright side for them, talks are underway to bring in new ownership to Osveta.

Novach Cup: Season 1

Final

Kral United 3–1 FK Sever

In the final match at the National Stadium in Riznicka, Kral United faced off against FK Sever to see who would be crowned the first Novach Cup champion. Expectations were high for United, and they did not disappoint their large traveling contingent. lahovic scored for United in the twenty-fifth minute on a beautiful run from the midfield. That was how the score would remain at halftime.

After the halfway mark, Sever quickly equalized in the forty-seventh minute on a beautiful goal from Zupan, assisted by Kovar. With the score tied, the teams settled into their defenses, neither side wanting to give up a potentially cup-losing goal. The moment finally came, however, in the seventy-first minute, when a United counterattack found Cermak open in the box. Cermax stayed collected and buried the shot past Sever keeper Holub. United added an insurance goal late from Strno on an open header from a Polzin corner and they won the first trophy under NFA competition. United will face the winner of the N-League (or the second-place finisher if they pull off the double) in the Novach Supercup at the end of the season.

Kral United finishes the year at the top of the table, securing the first N-League title and also the first double under NFA play. Olympic finishes just short of the top, finishing with 60 points to United's 61. A week thirty-three loss to Arsenal Sumar really hurt their title hopes. Arsenal finished strong to end up in third. Athletic Oznaca rounds out the international qualifiers by finishing in fourth. Kral were clearly the best team in the N-League this year, boasting a massive +38 goal differential that can be attributed to the attacking 4-3-3 that they play.

Riznicka City finishes in ninth after fading horribly throughout the year. Manager Stojanovic will probably be sacked during the offseason. Partisan goes from start to end in the cellar, ending the season with 30 points. Partisan had an absolutely abysmal goal differential of -49, which really highlights the weaknesses found all over the team.

Starek of United finishes with the golden boot, scoring 23 goals in the thirty six matches. Filipov of Dinamo finishes second with 20 goals. Radovan of Olympic and Smolak of Arsenal finish tied for third with 19 goals. Starek also wins Player of the Year for his efforts in leading United to the title. Chara of Oznaca wins Young Player of the Year, with Smolak finishing a close second in voting.

Novach Supercup

Kral United 3–3 Olympic Prednic (4–3 AET)

Kral United completes the treble with a 4-3 victory over Olympic in extra time. United were heavy favorites in the game, but Olympic came out hard and fast, with Horvat scoring in the eighth minute. Olympic almost had a second goal in the eleventh minute, but a sprawling save from United keeper Mlakar kept the ball out of the net. United equalized in the thirty-fourth minute on a goal from Pavlovic, but Olympic took the lead again before halftime, with Slezak scoring in the first half injury time.

United came out stronger in the second half, with Starek hitting the woodwork in the forty-eighth minute. Starek equalized in the fifty-fourth minute after finding himself wide open after a breakdown in the Olympic defense. Olympic took the lead again in the sixty-eighth minute on a beautiful volley from Smolak that was one of the best goals of the year. But United took the game to extra time with an eighty-third minute goal from Nemec and you could sense that Prednic was drained.

Olympic fought valiantly, but out of substitutes, United ran all over them during the extra time periods. Starek scored the game-winning goal in the one hundred and eighth period, but United could have scored multiple more if not for the performace of Olympic keeper Mikhailov. At the final whistle, United celebrated a great season, winning all three of the major trophies organized by the NFA, while Olympic had to console themselves with two second-place finishes.

If you are looking for a league with many changes in leadership, or perhaps a deep pyramid or teams with extant crests and kit patterns, there is still time to read the summaries of other divisions elsewhere on this page or even deep in the thread. Be warned that if you proceed, you will encounter attack-minded insects, a bizarre losing streak, a spurious youth system, a bitter central rivalry, and some very spurious stadium setups.

The second surprise of the season was Martina Ruan's undiminished form, leading FTC United time and again to impressive results. Not content with a return to the top half, they put together an early run that was more impressive than "three scoreless draws in their first five games, woohoo" sounds. Two of those were to Slogda and Ephesian! (Keppal were third, on the off chance you care.) On Matchday Five, as the Oxen continued their defensive efforts, Excelsior Slogda fell behind to Taylor Sariger-Heshik and the Keppal Cosmos. But they would score quick goals to open the second half, through Dunya Dratchler and Bill McEgery. This put them in first, outright; they'd been tied with Twineur, who lost to Sporting Esper, and Spenson, who lost a showdown of neutral-minded western squads to Namiri Independent.

After this, the Oxen ran into a Twineur Bugs side that would, for better and for worse, be putting up a lot of the eye-popping scorelines. (For eyes not belonging to Namiri Forest, who spent Matchday Six drawing scorelessly in Nauthron with the Rovers). It was "better" for the Bugs, who scored five goals, with Clifford Baqu recording a hat trick. Nayeli Nacche and Stirling Osfanto scored the other goals.

Twineur moved to second, but their momentum would hardly carry; they turned around and lost, 6-3, to Eintracht Trink. This wasn't as humiliating as it would look later on, admittedly, but for the rest of the first half, Twineur would continue their defenseless ways. Losses included 4-0 in Slogda and 6-2 in Cham, which...was still pretty embarrassing however you slice it. None of this deterred them from beating Spenson on the road, 5-3.

Matchday Eight featured a clash of the top two, the familiar names of Ephesian and Slogda. This leg was held in Zwischen, and the hosts got off to a lead through Angela Kachi-Yan. Vera Woredann and Adelaide Korath-Lear scored the next two for Slogda, however, only to be met by a brilliant assist from Davi Keane-Liuprand; he first dribbled through Alaisti's midfield, then left off in time for Loren Hurlbut to send home the equalizer. It was a reminder of just how good Keane-Liuprand was at his best...but more and more he seems to be part of the past tense. The draw was Ephesian's high-water mark; they'd fall behind to a Sariger-Heshik brace the following week and have to scramble to secure a half-point in a 3-3 game. Slogda were demolishing Twineur at that point, to widen their lead.

Second place would to go the winner in the clash of the Uniteds; these were the Rovers, who were playing FTC on the west side (this, we are compelled to specify, was an FTC home game). Maya Coelho set up Zvjezdan Mamuda for the first goal, and he would add another on a late run. Arlo Rais-Sonnen scored the Oxen's only goal, but Owen Hederg-Hewn and Lykke Mardh would each score to make the final tally 4-1 to the Rovers.

The Rovers got their chance for another big win in another 1 vs. 2 game on matchday 12. This took place in the Picksall Islands, whose kedgōbum fans turned out in full force to watch the game. A soaring assist from Coelho gave the Rovers the lead through Mardh, and after Korath-Lear scored, Mamuda came through again to make it 2-1 for the Rovers. (Yogabindi has not caught on as the Picksalladed nickname. More's the pity.)

This was Slogda's first defeat, and it narrowed the gap to first, but Alaisti were able to pull away again when the Rovers were held scoreless in Keppal. A single goal from Dratchler was enough to fend off Namiri Forest, to the surprise of...nobody really, Namiri were worse than even Cham at the time. The halfway point saw Slogda lead, after coasting through a scoreless draw with the Robins. 102d Jr.s were uncomfortably last, still winless. But there was only a point and a half between Canbix in fourth and Spenson in fourteenth.

So, a pause for international highlights. It was Kyveli Cherk-Kokinos whose away goal lifted Canbix into the Champions’ Cup group stage. Bassabook found themselves more ordinary than able in the Globe Cup playoff rounds (actually, most teams didn't lose by five on aggregate, so they probably weren't even ordinary). Canbix would be thwarped once they reached that group stage, only taking points from an Iturributan and Astograthi side with more important concerns to worry about. Slogda would power through their group stage, however, and perhaps more impressively, both youth clubs advanced through the group stage despite refusing to tell us how they operate. Canbix, again, had more trouble with the distracted sides, and Slogda were strongest at home. Nevertheless, they'd all head for the knockouts.

Slogda lost there to the youngsters of Stivarnel GU, who would soon infiltrate their senior side; in the meantime, it was Brend Soroff (twice) and Kyin Nosh scoring to put aside the Alaisti youth. The young Muses, and seniors for Slogda, then had to brace themselves for penalty shootouts. And...well, lose both, by the same scoreline. Hoa Koopa and Woredann registered the decisive misses, respectively; Lestari Batam and Ivy Yusen-Shikary struggled in goal, in the absences of Hajna Lantos (too old) and Bruce Millar (transferred). They'll be fine. Honest.

And then Katenka Cermak got to do some stuff, I guess. Maybe. Not actually sure. Whatever.

Back to the regular season, and it would be just after the halfway point that Slogda stumbled into a losing streak. Ish. Rais-Sonnen would score the only goal against them to bring the Oxen into a tie for second; the Rovers couldn't gain ground, beaten by Hurlbut and Ephesian. The next week, they would really struggle, losing to Eintracht Trink. Braces for Shuya Stoppelbein and Sheraga Fukui were bad enough, and to compound Alaisti's frustrations, Yusen-Shikary would fumble another shot to be debited with an own goal. As surprisingly, 102d finally got a win! Monifa Crube scored to defeat Canbix. A win for the Oxen against Keppal, and Twineur drawing the Rovers in Logrove, meant that the Uniteds swapped second and third.

They'd flip yet again the next week, as Slogda righted their course by demolishing Namiri Independent, 6-1. Admittedly, Nirav Gadhavi had to leave early with an injury, but is he seriously one of our top-three goalkeepers? That's a little more disconcerting than any shootout.

So, as the Uniteds chased each other down, neither were able to gain much ground on Slogda. The remaining Globe Cup spots were tightly contested, of course, with Canbix, Ephesian, and a briefly promising Sporting Esper giving way to Twineur (whose offense and lack-of-defense had been muted slightly) and Bassabook.

By Matchday Twenty-Three, Slogda had still just those three losses to their name. The Robins, who defeated the Rovers by a goal from Guntur Nexog-Isau, were still on pace to qualify for the Globe Cup. Canbix were...not. The bitter central "derby" got a lot more heated this season when bottom-half Keppal unleashed their frustrations on their neighbors, a Sariger-Heshik hat trick interspersed with goals from Gaye Tiryaki and Julia Fallan-Lee. Ramona Geideen scored for the Nightriders, but that hardly did much good.

The next week, Slogda would lose to Twineur, behind a goal from Nacche. This pulled Twineur up into fifth place, but didn't seem to hurt Slogda much; this being a repeat of the first time around, it meant that the Uniteds were playing each other again. East side, Rovers "hosting." Ruan got them off to an early lead, although she seemed exhausted after the celebrations. Mamuda equalized for the Rovers, but it would be Somsak Murgia who gave the Oxen their win and pulled them back into second.

The following week, Dratchler scored the only goal for Slogda against Bassabook, still in Globe Cup contention; both Uniteds won to keep pace. Keppal were able to keep their momentum going, Tiryaki scoring on Twineur to knock the Bugs out of the top five. Canbix, however, were able to recover from their big loss, defeating Cham comfortably to jump up to fourth. This sounds easy, and it was, but Cham had inexplicably been in the top half before that.

The top three all won their next rounds, as did Bassabook and Twineur. Geideen and Katie Raptis both scored for Canbix. Twice. They lost. By two. Every once in a while, Ephesian still have it.

This left Slogda three-and-a-half top, with four to play--they'd led since Matchday Five, after all. But they couldn't put it away immediately; there was a 1 vs. 3 match up ahead in Craton. The Rovers came in, and despite the banners of the home crowd, it would be the visitors who got off to an early lead, through Mamuda. Coelho came up with the second, and Amadi McGoeld scored the third from a distance to keep the Rovers' mathematical hopes alive. Rais-Sonnen, meanwhile, scored for the Oxen against a downspiraling Robins team in a low-tension but very close local "rivalry." (Almost as close as it would have been on the west side.)

And so, in the following round, McGoeld scored for the Rovers to keep them in contention...only to be met by an equalizer from Fallan-Lee. It would be defender Tygo Beumers whose winner confirmed the Rovers' elimination from the title race, despite Slogda losing too, this to...er...Namiri "not the worst defensive team, seriously" Forest. It was a flukish goal from Jaya Patil, in a game we didn't think would have much offense going at all, that kept things interesting. That, and the Oxen winning, Murgia's goal defeating Trebuchet Cham.

On the penultimate matchday, however, the title would be clinched. 102d's visit to Slogda could have been a setup for the ultimate underdog to play spoiler, but, they really didn't. After both defenses were mired in place, it was Nadine Roark who eventually broke forward to score a long goal that would win another title for Alaisti.

The sad thing is, they didn't really need her. The Oxen were losing to mediocre Trink, with a couple assists from Liorit Wirth sending Nebenstimme to a 3-1 win. So that would have ended the race, either way. Still implications for the last CC slot, however; the Rovers were held to a draw with Spenson, Joyce Calle-Polp equalizing after Vakha Lett's goal. Evan Diallo assisted Osfanto on a goal for Twineur against Cham to leave the Bugs fourth, Geideen and Renee Leind-Fiske scored against Arlington to leave the Nightriders fifth, and Bassabook lost to Ephesian, dropping to sixth.

The last day saw Slogda lose again, since it didn't matter, this time to the Robins. Bassabook defeated Twineur to leave them fourth and fifth respectively; BOB's defense wasn't great, but decent enough thanks in no small part to the awkward Connor Ohme, who's been particularly unhelpful in interviews from anyone not the Baritone.

Cham and Trink, so long trading off as the worst teams, can at least say Arlington and 102d's defensive approach is really worse, and enjoyed a nine-goal game that saw visiting Trink get the win. Arlington shelled six to Ephesian, who tried to make the most out of not reaching the top five.

And, in games of more importance, the Rovers defeated Canbix to, among other things, knock the Muses out of the GC positions. The Rebels beat the Oxen, which meant that...Well. We mentioned that Martina Ruan's second-most-impressive achievement was captaining FTC United from the bottom half last season, up to at least third place this time around. We should say that her most impressive achievement was getting out of Kinitaria and the Cup of Harmony on her own, health and career intact, probably long enough to captain the national team again.

So, let it be known that on goal difference, Rovers edged out FTC United. And assigning stadiums for the opening rounds of the Champions’ Cup will be that much more interesting. Then again, FTC United might not have been a much better prospect. Okay, they would be better. But not by much. This has been the preemptive disclaimer of qualified teams for us, Zwangzug, who are but an unimportant association and certainly not as powerful as the #1 ranked league with the CC winners or anything like that.

The Major League Soccer is the only professional soccer championship in the Kingdom of Nesika Illahie. The league's teams are centrally owned by the league, and there is no promotion and relegation system. The teams that compete in the league are: Bremer Pumas, Brigham Gunners, Howard Fuego, Multnomah Spartans, Multnomah Timbers, Siahl Crossfire, Siahl SC, Siahl Sounders, Skinner United, Toholal SC, Wood River SC.

The eleven teams of the MLS compete in a round robin tournament; each team faces every other team four times. At the end of the regular season, the top four teams compete in the playoffs, consisting of two semi-finals and a final. The winner of the final is the Champions' Cup qualifier, while the runner-up and the other semi-finalists qualify for the Globe Cup.

Is it fancy, NO! Is it what we want it to be, NO! Does it comapre well with other international domestic leagues, NO! None the less it is here. McKleigh has very quietly started their own organized professional league. While organized clubs have been around sice the 54th WC cycle no formal league was in place until the 67th WC cycle. At that time 6 major, well known and estblished clubs helped 6 other communities establish new clubs to form a 12 team league. It is a new league and while all 12 teams have access to playing fields, none have locations that are exclusive to the team or the sport. McKleigh runs two domestic cycles per WC cycle, one shortly after the COH and on just before the BOF of the next cycle. The seasons are numbered after the WC cycle and indicate first and second season of any given cycle, for example 672 would be the second season of the 67th WC cycle. At this time the league has completed 3 cycles and is finally seeing enough local support and game attendance to be out of the red financially. The results of those 3 double round robin cycles and their 4 team championship playoffs will be posted here.

(OOC, Scorinating info; WASP is using SQIS formula with xkorinate-style(additive) modifiers. A ranking system callled MPR(McKleighvian Power Rating, simular formulas to KPB) looks at last 5 seasons points to calculate skill points. A 30% relative bonus is used with each team seeing a .5 default that goes up or down depending on player and manager departures and aquisitions.)

But first a brief history and introduction of the teams.

Mckleigh City, by far the largest, oldest, and political capital city of McKleigh. It supports 4 teams, all of which call the 62,628 capacity McKleigh City Coliseum home. This stadium is also home to the national team. In the 54th WC cycle the first two clubs in the nation were formed here, Founders FC and Citizen United. These teams had political starts, each representing a prominant political ideology of the time. Founders FC is headquartered and has most of it's fan base in the Olde Towne section of the city and is regarded as the "capitalist team" that represents the ideals of the nations founders. Citizen United out of the Downtown area has a strong socialist following to this day. These two teams are fierce rivals on and off the pitch. Founders won roughly 2 out of 3 games verses CU in the years prior to WASP. Founders FC colors are silver and maroon and have a style mod of +4. CU colors are red and gold and they have a style mod of -5.

Newly created teams Rampart 66 and Real McKleigh are the other and new teams from the big city. Rampart 66 are a team that celebrates the nations political change towards classical liberalism/american libertarianism during the early parts of the 66th WC cycle. Their fanbase is in the thriving commercial Uptown area. Their colors are the national colors of red, black and gold and they have a -3 style mod. Real Mckleigh are Blue and White and represent the wealthy and established people of the Northside. They have a +2 style mod. Both teams were created for the new league in the 67th cycle.

Just North of McKleigh City and part of it's metropolitan area is Williambaugh where in WC 67 the new team of Northpointe was created. Williambaugh is a wealthy and strong Protestant area. As such their team has garnered a Protestant following throughout the area despite no official religious ties to the team. Their home matches are played at 20,000 capacity Elder Field and their colors are sky blue and green with a style mod of 0. Their rival has quickly become the team from just south of McKleigh City in the blue colar town of Stephenston, Trinity. Trinity formed at the same time as Northpointe is owned and backed by many members of the congregation from The Cathedral of Saints Peter, Paul and Mary, but enjoys no official connection to the church itself. Their colors are olive green and orange and use a style mod of -1 and they play at St. Gabriel Field that holds only 8,500.

On the western shores of McKleigh, and due west of the capital, is the smaller community of Sunset Beach where the team Eventide plays in front of its laid back surfer fanbase in 18,500 seat Bayside Stadium using a +3 style mod. This was another team created for the WASP league in WC66.

South of Sunset Beach and still on the coast is the naval town of Del Pazmar. During the 58th WC cycle they formed a local club and called it Armada. They quickly became one of McKleigh's better teams. They have a strong military following. They play in Naval Gaurd Pastures, it used to literally be a naval livestock pasture, it now is a proper stadium with 47,000 seats. Armada's colors are yellow, red, and navy blue and they use a style mod of -4.

The southwest peninsula of McKleigh is mostly inhabited by a people called the Peludaltas. They originate from clusters of small islands very very far out in the Esportivan West Ocean and began to immigrate to Andarica the same time McKleighs other ancestors began to arrive in the north. They have their own language but are all bilengual by choice and their very friendly nature allows them to mix in well with the rest of the population despite what could be intimidating physical apperance to humans. While humanoids, they are very tall and much stronger than homosapiens and have a shaggy coat of hair that covers their entire boddies(OOC think wookie/bigfoot/sasquatch).

At the same time they were established a neighboring city from up the river, and in the heart of McKleigh, started their own club. The city was Ashtree and the club... Ashtree FC.
