Moving house at mo so having to get my answers in early. Not had much chance to think about them but not sure more time would have helped! Think the yo-yo will continue...

Craigbetts fc have been fitted out with Armani White suits for the day out at the national stadium of DTD to take on the the mighty Tighty Fc. Chairman Bettsy has stated 'the lads are going to enjoy the day' and Lord Prew's comments about the club will be stuck up all over the changing room pre kick off. Sky sports are currently running reruns of Hereford v Newcastle, Sutton united v Coventry City and Wimbledon v Liverpool.

Where there's hope, there is a guess on Scottish fitba!

It became the 'Big Three' last season and now, in Season Nine, I think it'd be fair to call it the 'Big Four' after Rubbish2407 finished 3rd again, with TightEnd once more having to make do with a 4th place finish. In fact, the top 4 finished both Season Eight and Nine in the exact same positions with horseplayer becoming the most decorated player in the history of the game by bagging his 5th League title. sharpea again went close and surely it is only a matter of time before he is lifting silverware. Alverton continued his yo-yo of late as a score of 9 points saw him relegated, along with sweet potata! whose first raid into the Premier League did not end well.

Replacing those two are Tal, who scooped the Championship title, and TheChipPrince, who has worked his way up from League Two but must realise he needs to improve to have any chance in the Premier League. superwomble and Waz1892 suffered relegation and will be serious contenders in League One next season.

In the lower leagues, stribling won League One with 6 points whilst newcomer bryceland scored 8 points to cruise to the League Two title.
