milivella has picked Fulham, and while it would be satisfying to
celebrate his relegation in style, I might just prefer to avoid the
risk of him jumping ahead of me in the standings with a 3-0 Fulham
win.[*]

Lazio it is.


[*] Yes, this is one of the downsides of having inter-tier matches....

I'll be consulting my lawyers about possibly appealing to the fair
gamemaster to have this pick invalidated. They expect to have a
conclusion for me some time Sunday.

Results and standings:

Tier 1
----
The Doctor 2-1 Futbolmetrix (Fiorentina - Lazio)
Jesper Lauridsen 1-3 milivella (Newcastle - Fulham)

Pts M GF GA GD Picks Team
13 6 10 5 5 5 The Doctor
8 6 10 8 2 6 Futbolmetrix
8 6 7 8 -1 6 milivella

Congrats Doc for his second consecutive title. One really has to feel
for milivella, relegated on goal difference despite finishing on an
impressive 8 points. If only we could tweak things to make him stay in
Tier 1...but alas, rules are rules!




Tier 2
----
Werner Pichler 0-0 MH (Crystal Palace - Manchester United)

Pts M GF GA GD Picks Team
8 6 9 9 0 6 Werner Pichler
7 6 6 10 -4 6 Jesper Lauridsen
5 6 4 6 -2 4 MH

Werner and MH left the door open for Jesper, but he couldn't take
advantage. Werner to Tier 1, MH to Tier 3



Tier 3
----
Mark 2-1 Blueshirt (Bologna - Monza)
Jesus Petry 3-1 Lléo (Fulham - Newcastle)


Pts M GF GA GD Picks Team
12 6 10 7 3 6 Mark
7 6 5 6 -1 6 Lléo
6 6 7 6 1 6 Blueshirt
5 6 7 10 -3 6 Jesus Petry


Pain for Blueshirt, who was in a promotion position until late in the
Bologna-Monza game, but a late Bologna winner condemns him to another
season in Tier 3. Mark and Lleo promoted to Tier 2.

I think FC Mark went the whole tournament unbeaten.

Actually can we have the won drawn lost statistics in the League tables
please? Separate home and away records would be nice too if it's not
too much trouble.
