Premiership
-- Title Contenders --
Nags Head Rovers are still sitting top of the Prem, in a Title Race that is looking tougher for everyday. They lead with 7 points ahead of King Krimson FC in 2nd, but having played 5 more games than most of the challengers, many are hoping to get a run of wins to tip the race in their favour. According to the Projections, already mentioned King Krimson (2nd), as well as F. C. Porto Kenshin (3rd), and Team Kolbotn (5th) looks the most probable challengers, but we're not going to write off Hi Standard FC's (8th) chances.
The battle for the remaining UFFA places (1-4 to Gold Cup, 5-8 to Silver Cup, 9-10 to Bronze Cup) is fearce as well - since at least 15 of the Prem's teams are in with real chances of a top 10 finish, I'm not going to go into it with more detailed info - you know who you are, and good luck!
-- Relegation Battle --
Phantoms has surprised everyone by climbing from a 20th to 11th place in the past week. Thelwall Rangers is the new bottom side, and they are 13 points from safe ground. RockSteady FC is more close, laggging by 7 points, and the remaining sides in a relegation spot - Aletheia FCand Mutantes Raivosos - are even closer. But considering how tight the Prem is, if Tyrosquad FC in 9th gets a poor run of result, they run a realistic chance of relegation - that sums up everything I guess! The quality in this league really is fierce. ;)
-- Worth Mentioning --
Linton Brown AFC is, along with leaders Nags Head Rovers, the only Prem side to concede less goals than matches played, despite "only" sitting on 10th spot.
King Krimson FC has 6 games without a defeat - will he be able to build on this?
Nags Head Rovers' success is apparently built on dirty play; they've commited the most fouls in the league, 392.

Championship
-- Title Contenders --
Leaders AFC Owls of Laughter are looking good for the title, having 59 points from their opening 29 games, and winning 18 of them. Salford Reds still has it all in their own hands though, having played 4 games less and being 10 points behind. Great Odin's Ravens F.C. are a further two points behind, and also has played 4 games less, and are thus the last realistic title candidate. Sporting Corrick in 4th houses the last promotion spot, but Band of Brothers and White Rose - 5th and 6th respesctively - both fancy their chances of taking that spot. Worth adding is that an amazing 5 (!) further teams has a chance of that last spot, if they manage to go on a winning streak.
-- Relegation Battle --
Amazingly, last week's bottom team, Croxley Eagles, doesn't look doomed for relegation anymore - they're 18th now, a single point from survival. The teams behind, Sporting Lesbian and REDACES, have contact as well. Maltastars completes the bottom 4, but after that, we have 4 teams within two points.
-- Worth Mentioning --
Sporting Lesbian has only drawn two of their 25 games.
AFC Owls of Laughter's success is obviously based on creative play; they dribble the most of all teams, 30.28 times per match.
Steptoes Ghosts has recieved 9 pens; that's 5 more than 2nd place!

Division One
-- Title Contenders --
Mampa Miners have got a 7 point lead in top after 24 played games, ahead of crouching tigers. Fellow swedish team Totta FC is in 3rd, and the dark horse of the title race - Eintracht Mind, who has played 5 games less than Mampa - are 4th, 9 points after. Caleta FC in 6th, who have only played 20 games, also hope to challenge for at least promotion - Lucianos Athletic in 5th have played two games more, so promotion is possible still.
-- Relegation Battle --
Cottingham Rangers have gone from 17th, with only 7 points and a single win, up to 9th, and a total on 8 wins in their last weeks - nice achievement! Stanton Dynamo are still bottom of the table though, and are 10 points away from safety. S.C.BEJECAS, Wandsworth Wanderers and Botha United make up the current relegated teams - but they are only 1-2 points away from Inter Blues FC.
-- Worth Mentioning --
Peen Dogs Terriers and Swavesey Island FC have gone 4 games without losing.
Lucianos Athletic have the best Goal Difference in the league - but it's only 13!

Division Two
-- Title Contenders --
Ragnarok FC are top of the table with 46 points after 23 games, and a massive 45 goals scored. Ipswich Rangers FC finds themselves two points behind in 2nd, but as they have played 4 more games, it will be tough to snatch the title. Melchester Forest, in 5th, probably fancies their chances - they have played 22 games, and are 5 points behind. Rhystic United, in 3rd, is the closest challenger after that. Last weeks leader, Armpit Tigers, have dropped too many points since to have a realistic chance, but still find themselves in 4th. Besides that, there's probably a four further teams who fancies their chances of grabbing one of the four promotion places.
-- Relegation Battle --
Funky Munkeys FC have won 3 games since last week, and this means that last place has been passed on to Bushby Babes. Canucks VFC and Steel City Owls complete the bottom four, but are only 2 points behind Aston United and Aston Village. Canuck in particular will hope that their four games in hand will make a difference.
-- Worth Mentioning --
Ipswich Rangers FC have added one red card since last time - 4 in total now...

Division Three
-- Title Contenders --
Queens Park Stone Age lead the way with 41 points in an extremly tight group, where the Top 3 are within one point of each other, all having played 20 games. Athens United FC and Cookies Monsters are 2nd and 3rd respectively, both having 40 points and being sepereated by goal difference. Real Manchester United F.C. in 4th are 6 points behind the top at 4th, with Pasties n Cider FC a further point behind, but a game in hand. A lot is sure to happen as the season is drawing to a close in Division Three.
-- Relegation Battle --
pearce' people haven't been able to win since the last update, and find themselves bottom now. Derby County AFC and NGHC Casuals have got their first wins now though, but are still 15th and 14th respectively. Cardiff Flames has the last relegation spot, but is only two points after Pickie Park Poachers.
-- Worth Mentioning --
Cookies Monsters' success seems to build on a solid defense - only 14 conceded in 20 is mightly impressive.
Pasties n Cider FC has scored the most corner goals so far, 8.
Athens United FC have gone 9 games unbeaten - if they keep this up, the title should be close.

Division Four
-- Title Contenders --
Barwell Bears FC have overtaken the lead in Division Four, with 48 points from 22 games. Pompey PFC have played one less game, and are one point behind in 2nd - and it looks like these two will battle it out for the title, unless Sedge City in 3rd, 7 points away from the top, wins the most of their remaining 8 games. TCASPS Clube de Futbol in 4th is the last current promoted side, but 3 teams are are within 3 points of him.
-- Relegation Battle --
In a very tight relegation battle (except for the hopeless bottom team, Anorthosis Economides Kickers) 7 teams have a viable chance of relegation. Little Aston Villa FC, Dynamo Kev (who hadn't won a game yet last week - won four now, nice job!) and Lincoln FC make up the current teams, but they're all at least 5 points from FC Bradford, in 9th. Will be an exciting fight.
-- Worth Mentioning --
As mentioned, half the FA is in a relegation fight. Should be very ugly!
Sedge City has scored the most goals, 39.
Pompey PFC haven't lost an Away game this season, winning 9 and drawing 1.
Barwell Bears FC have 15 games without losing - that's the best record by far.

Division Five
-- Title Contenders --
Freedom Utd is still leading since last week, and now has 59 points from 28 games. huddersfield town terriers are 6 points behind in 2nd, and will hope to get on a streak in the end to catch up. Grantchester United is probably most interested in keeping hold of their promotion place, that is being threathened by AFC Elite in 4th who are only a point behind.
Stonehouse FC, Passionate Black Eagles F.C., Little Liverpool FC and MONAVFC are the teams battling out for the Play-Off places that places 4-7 get.
-- Relegation Candidates --
No teams relegated from this Division, unless we expand and get a Division 6! In that case, up to the bottom 8 might get relegated - so if you teams in the lower regions felt like you didn't have anything to fight about right now, well, I hope I've given you an incentive. ;)
-- Worth Mentioning --
Stonehouse FC: has only conceded an amazing tally of 13 goals in 26 games.
Wesley's Wanderers has got 5 red cards so far this season.
Freedom Utd's secret seems to be corners - 11 scored so far.
-- Top Performers --
Most goals:
Diego Souza, 22 goals / 27 games (Passionate Black Eagles F.C.)
Most assists:
Thiaguinho, 10 assists / 23 games (Pauli Bhoys FC)
