Season 26 week 17 processing...

Greece

Olympiakos 38 +25
Athens 38 +16 reality managed
Ethnikos 36 +17 unmanaged

Bundesliga

Schalke 44 +43
Bayern 41 +27
Berlin 38 +26
Dortmund 33 +14

Schalke lost a bit of ground this week against a very strong Dortmund side who are able to beat anybody on their day, unfortunately for Dortmund continual tactical and personnel changes doesn't do them any favours as far as consistency goes.

Holland

PSV 43 +25
Feyenoord 42 +29
Ajax 35 +21
Rotterdam 32 +16

This league is becoming very competitive with the top four sides all managed by gifted managers all of whom have served apprenticeships at various clubs around the world before coming to Holland. The big surprise this season in Ajax struggling following the retirement of three key players last season, two of whom haven't really been replaced. And a great win this week for second placed Feyenoord as they beat leaders PSV with Luuk De Jong in top form.

Serie A

Inter 38 +26
Juventus 37 +19
Napoli 34 +25
Roma 31 +5
Milan 30 +13
Cagliari 29 +10
Fiorentina 27 +8
Ancona 23 +15
Parma 16 -12

The game between Inter and Lazio had to be rerun. Inter boss had entered everything correctly in red and it was all legible but his subs were not recorded properly, so I reran the game. A 0-0 draw became a 2-0 win for Inter.

Poland

Gornik 49 +41
Wisla 36 +23

A win next week will see Gornik crowned Champions again for a record eighth time in nine years with each title coming since Ivan took charge back in season 18. The missing season they only finished second, shame on you Ivan.

Portugal

Benfica 42 +31
Lisbon 42 +26
Porto 35 +17
Belenenses 31 +10 unmanaged

The top three continue to dominate here with Elano still doing the business for the leaders.

Scotland Premier

St Johnstone 51 +53
Inverness 35 +11
Celtic 34 +23
Rangers 30 +11

eat my dust guys  the Saints surge to their second consecutive title having conceded just four goals so far in the league.

Scotland First

Hearts 40 +27
Dundee 28 +4 unmanaged
Kilmarnock 26 +3

Hearts will prove a tough challenger next season with a win next week propelling them into the top flight as First division winners.

Spain

Real Madrid 44 +33
Barcelona 38 +26
Valencia 36 +19
Real Betis 33 +18 reality managed
Bilbao 29 -5 reality managed

Looks a bit familiar with two of the world's best sides leading the way as usual.

Slovakia

Slovan Bratislava 40 +16 reality managed
Ruzomberok 27 +4
Inter Bratislava 24 +2 unmanaged
Bystrica 24 +2 unmanaged

Dave's feeder club starting to lay down the law in this league although it may have come a little late for a tilt at the title, but for sure next season they will be strong favorites.

Transfers now...

Arouca and Jackson Martinez leave Nantes for Porto.
Man City won the race to sign Danny Drinkwater with an 8m signingonfee and James Milner, will this jeopardise their outside chances of the title ? or even the cup ? we shall see. Has Geoff done a Pellegrini and got rid of James too soon ?
Preston signed Wijnaldum from Inter on loan.

plenty of other deals went through as well...

training and finances now...

printing now...

Emails all sent out, order sheets will be posted tonite.

Thanks Paul.

Paul, can you have a look at why Mkhitaryan came on as a CF and not a TM given he replaced my TM and  I play FAS? Think It may have left me with no TM in FAS for a third of the game. Thanks Rob.

Okay I assumed that is what it was but it isnt that at all.

The system seems to have ignored the changes I asked it to make to your subs, so im looking into it further.

Oh no ...... CF hates me.

Result of rerun game

Inter 2 Lazio 0 Alaba ( 2 )

Thank you Paul. Appreciate you fixing it. Still top of he League. Sigh of relief and brow wiped.
