England Premier

Watford 51 +35 Phil Green Champions
Charlton 47 +15
Man City 39 +23
Aston Villa 30 +1
Arsenal 30 -1
Newcastle 30 -4

Three trophies this season for Watford League, Champions Cup and League Cup makes Phil the manager of the season, congratulations on that Phil it was well deserved.

Down go Fulham who made a valiant effort lifting themselves off the bottom but to no avail, Birmingham and Man United, whilst Spurs and Chelsea gain automatic promotion, which wont make next season any easier for anybody.

Championship

Spurs 50 +40
Chelsea 46 +34
------
Westham 43 +20
Wednesday 35 +8

So Westham will play Burnley who are in an awful run of form and Wednesday will play Soton in next week's playoff semi-finals at Wembley.

League One

Banstead 51 +32
Everton 50 +44
------
Tranmere 45 +28
Leicester 43 +17
Leeds 37 -3

Wouldn't like to pick a winner from these four playoff clubs with only Leeds stuttering a bit lately everyone else is bang on form. Tranmere vs Norwich and Leicester vs Leeds at Wembley next week.

League Two

Coventry 51 +33
Hartlepool 51 +22
------
Brighton 47 +34
Sunderland 38 +17

Italy

Lazio 51 +44 Dave Brothers Champions
AC Milan 47 +28
Ancona 47 +24
Inter Milan 46 +13

Down go Torino, Plymouth's feeder club Roma and Cremonese which may result in the sacking of Ben Wilson as Roma manager and the board are currently voting on whether to give him another chance or appoint somebody from the waiting list to help get them back to where they belong. More news on that once Ben has had his opinion taken into account, but its not looking good for Ben. Up comes Sampdoria, Bologna and Lecce.

Australasia Japan, China, South Korea and Australia

Melbourne 64 +37 Geoff Fields Champions Invincibles

Prussian Poland, Ukraine, Czech Republic, Georgia and Slovakia

Shaktar 51 +41 Ray Marsh QPR Feeder Champions
Ruzomberok 50 +36
Kiev 49 +32
Gornik 47 +47

Tough division this one but Shaktar's single goal victory at Legia Warsaw this week was enough to confirm their first place finish ahead of three very strong clubs but an ageing squad will need to be rebuilt sometime soon.

Portugal

Benfica 61 +64 Davie Gallacher Champions
Porto 56 +41
Lisbon 54 +38

Davie's tenth league title with Benfica to go along with his ten cup wins and with some outstanding young players in his current first eleven the future looks just as rosy for the Portistas but must look to do better in Europe if they are to progress and become a really top side.

Russia Russia, Belarus, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.

Spartak 62 +59 Albie Fox Champions Invincibles
Zalgiris 51 +22
Bate 39 +7 unmanaged

Albie's second consecutive "Double" since taking charge of Spartak Moscow in season 28 and although the club have been successful winning 9 titles and ten cups under a slew of different managers only now are they starting to fulfil their true potential.

Africa

Accra 56 +44 David Agyarko Wycombe Feeder Champions
Enugu 53 +20
Chiefs 49 +31
Mamelodi 49 +30

Last season's runners-up took top spot this time round and it was well deserved with Dave doing stirling work bringing in a slew of new young Ghanain stars with more still to come apparently.

A very competitive season. Well done to Ray.

Scotland

Celtic 55 +38 Steve Mumford Champions
St Johnstone 53 +30
Inverness 43 +40

Losing at Celtic Park back in week 18 cost the Saints the chance to retrieve their title from Celtic but they narrowly missed out again to a very good Celtic side giving Steve his fourth Scottish title in a season where they achieved an excellent Double by also capturing the cup for the first time ever.

Spain

Barcelona 64 +59 Robert Wilson Champions Invincibles
Real Madrid 53 +38
Zaragoza 43 +19

Barcelona have been rebuilding all season and still managed to dominate in the league remaining unbeaten all season where the goalless draw in Sevilla was the closest they came to tasting defeat. But losing twice to Real Madrid in both the Cup and the Europa Cup must have stung and it'll be interesting to see what the Champions get upto in the close season.
