The Best ones

The season approaching its end

Written 10 March 2012, 16:48

With just a few more matches to play, I am in contention for promotion. First place has been settled already, with them 6 points clear with a game in hand. I am currently sitting in 2nd place, but 3rd place is 2 points behind with a game in hand, and could go ahead by a point by winning that game. 4th is 7 points behind with 2 games in hand and is still in clear contention, potentially being 1 point behind. These are the main promotion contenders. I have 3 matches left, the first of which is against a team with no players, so an auto-3 nil win and the other against 14th place, a team with only 8 points this season. The last match will probably decide the last promotion spot, where I come up against 3rd place, away. At home I lost 2-1 even though I dominated, with 7 shots to my opponent's 4. However, my team is slightly stronger with a strong FR, who is on transfer list. Third place has a tougher run in to the end of the season. He also has a free match, against a club with no players but then plays 8th place, who he only beat 1-0 in the first match. Then he plays me, and he finishes with another tough match against 5th place, who he beat 2-0 at home but he had only 4 shots compared to his opponent's 6. Fourth place also plays eighth place, but he lost to him 1-0 earlier in the season. Then he has what seems to be a quite easy match against 11th, however, there was a draw earlier in the season. Then comes a extremely difficult match against top, who he drew with earlier in the season, followed by two quite easy matches against 13th and 9th. The form going in to these final matches is varying. I have won 6, drawn 2, lost 2 in the last 10, with a total of 20/30 points. Third place has a 10 match unbeaten run with 8 wins and 2 draws and a total of 26/30. Finally fourth place has a 12 match unbeaten run, also with 8 wins and 2 draws in the last 10 matches, and a total of 26/30. Looking at the matches left it is clear that my match against third place will probably decide it
