Season 27 Week 7 processing...

and the ref brings the match to a close...round up to follow...

A good win for Spurs against an opposition that was on 100% and all three forwards scoring for Ruzemberok. The season has finally started!!!

Very satisfied with that. Inter did what they needed to with the forwards again firing.  Villa massively over performed and the Bony and Yaya show worked wonders.

Premiership

Chelsea 16 +6
Man City 15 +11
Villa 15 +7
Fulham 14 +8
Watford 14 +5
Charlton 13 +6

as tight as everybody expected after seven games, about a third of the way through the season.

Championship

Man United 18 +15
Wolves 16 +7
West Brom 11 +2
Soton 11 +1
Forest 11 -2 reality manager
Spurs 10 -2

This is going to very interesting, who wants it the most ?

Le Championnat

Paris 19 +13
Nantes 17 +10
Etienne 16 +19
Monaco 16 +14

Looks like it'll be one of the top four again in France.

Bundesliga

Gladbach 21 +17
Schalke 18 +12
Berlin 16 +13
Cologne 14 +13
Bayern 13 +11

Already a huge gap between the top two and third and fourth, hard to see past one of the top three really, unless they blow up of course.

Eredivisie

Ajax 21 +21
PSV 18 +14
Feyenoord 18 +13
Rotterdam 15 +15

Any of the top four look capable, all are scoring a hatful of goals each week, could be very close.

2 more wins and Villa will be safe.

Serie A

Inter 21 +16
Roma 18 +12
Juventus 18 +9
Napoli 18 +8
Milan 10 +2

Milan are already out of it but the top four are all locked together with just three points separating the usual culprits. There is only Genoa unmanaged in this league and it is that which makes it so unpredictable, but I do fancy Inter, GMs curse ?

La Liga

Barcelona 19 +15
Betis 18 +16
Real Madrid 16 +12
Valencia 16 +9
Atletico 15 +17
Zaragoza 13 +7

I always seem to be thinking this will be the season when one of the underdogs topples the big two and steals the league title, and then they play the top two, and i'm like, no, maybe next season. Cant really see beyond Barca this season, they are looking at their strongest ever.

Brasileiro

Fluminense 21 +15
Sao Paulo 21 +11
Santos 16 +16
Corinthians 11 +3
Flamengo 10 +0
Coritiba 10 -3

Too many good managers in this division now to call it but a great start by Fluminense and Sao Paulo should push one of them towards a first league title for either side in a long time.

Belgium

Liege 21 +21
Mechelen 19 +11
Anderlecht 18 +14
Lierse 13 +2 unmanaged

The top three sides are all pulling up trees at the moment as they fight it out for top spot, each using a different tactical system as well, with ISF, ATT and BAR all on show, I'm following this division very closely, their cause is helped though by the fact that Genk are missing the guiding influence of their boss, else it would be a four horse race.

Thanks Paul!!!!!!!

Scotland

Inverness 19 +15
Celtic 19 +13
St Johnstone 15 +15
Aberdeen 10 +4
Rangers 10 -5

Top six sides all managed means a fight for not only the best players but also all the points, with Inverness back on top this week having scored 13 goals in 4 away matches so far.

The rest I will leave until you receive your turns, transfers now...

Coaching and finances now...

Printing now, email turns will be sent out in the morning...

Email turns all sent out...

Thanks Paul.

Yes, thanks Paul

Any chance we can have a deadline extension this turn? Know we might be having one soon because of xmas? 

Think I might be struggling to get it done and the post is really unreliable this time of year?

Not a bad call.  Maybe until New Year?

Must admit, I'd prefer the next-but-one turn to have an extension, not this turn...(sorry)...

Fair enough, see what the GM thinks. Don't forget how unreliable the post is this time of year Andy.

You're not wrong! I won't be upset either way Paul...
