07 February 2010 - Season 19 -> Season 20
Today sees the start of a brand new season, with fresh optimism and hope for all most of the teams taking part.

Season 19 ended on a high note for tyler who claimed The Premiership title in the final week. This was no small feat for the two-time Champions League winner after selecting his home-town club, Manchester City, and suffering a lacklustre start to his campaign as Steely and pompey88 took the early initiative.
It was another unwanted team that took The Chumpionship crown last time out, as Yawdib took 9th-choice pick Werder Bremen to the title with three games to spare. Sean_L_99 finished runner up after a storming middle of the season and both are joined in this season's Premiership by Supercat, donnie_darko and Manic Minor who each came up via the play-offs thanks to a couple of drop-outs from the top league.
The unlucky losers of The Premiership were Timmo, mackenie and SaintM who were all relegated to the newly reformed Championship. The latter of which on the last day of the season after close-fought games with LittleJoe, who ironically saved his arch-nemesis RickyDVT from dropping into the bottom three on goal difference.
Turkish giants Galatasaray dominated League One last season, JaminTastic was the man at the helm who lead them to the title and he will be looking to show his worth in this season's Championship as he looks to gain consecutive promotions. He was joined by JohnnyArgos, Fry Crayola, Hereticboy, Lilywhite and Dewranger thanks to generous numbers players leaving the league. Dropping down from The Chumpionship to replace them in League One were dylan tiplady, Tomox02 and Wincho09.
Gambit, scratch and rokforce were the relegated few taking a place in League Two for the upcoming campaign. It was smithstock who eventually strode to that particular league's title with his Palermo side after the small scare of a double-defeat to his nearest rival Nathan towards the end of the season. Those two, along with AlfromSleep, Alshie and Siread will be taking part in this season's League One after their respective promotions.
Lilywhite was crowned the runaway winner of The Conference and was rewarded with a triple-promotion straight into The Championship. Scotw75, Mike., themomentbefore and Razzle have to make do with their single promotions up into League Two for the forthcoming season. Their places will be partly filled by ASM, Shoes and Slotter who were relegated from the league above into The Conference.
The Ryman League crown was taken by PrimeAran and his Racing de Santander side who will take two steps up the ladder to join the afore mentioned players promoted into League Two. FuntimeDave, scooot77, ryanski, Big Gus and PeterUK are the remaining individuals to be shuffled up the pack and find themselves in The Conference for today's big kick-off.

So there you have it. Each league table from seasons gone by can be looked at in detail over on the Past Winners page, and don't forget to keep a lookout in the Trophy Room for any new contributions from this season's winners!

Good luck for the new campaign!

11 January 2010 - Season 19 Round-up: Week 10
It is 2010, and in the rllmuk FIFA 10 league most teams have only 2 games left until the end of the season, and it is very much bums on seats time for those looking at grabbing a promotion place or avoiding relegation.

In the world renowned Premiership, the title is still very much up for grabs, with four managers still mathematically in the fight to be crowned champions. Of the four, Steely's Real Madrid and Pompey's Liverpool are joint-favourites. Steely's Galacticos currently top the table, but they are just 4 points ahead of Pompey's Rafalution who also have 2 games in hand.

At the bottom, it is equally as close. Mackenie's Valencia are the first team confirmed relegated to the Chumpionship, and the remaining two spots will go to the wire, with SaintM's Chelsea and Timmo's Inter Milan both needing strong last-week results to avoid the drop.

In the Chumpionship, Yawdib's Werder Bremen are top of the tree, just one 1 point ahead but with 2 games in hand on their nearest rivals Sean's Sevilla.

At the bottom, and dropping through the divisions like a stone is Tomox, with his Roma side bottom and already relegated to League One. Dylan's Everton side are also as good as relegated thanks to their poor goal difference, leaving Wincho's Aston Villa side and Chooch's Bordeaux fighting between themselves to avoid the last relegation spot.

In League One, JaminTastic's Galatasaray team are already confirmed champions and promoted to The Chumpionship, being joined there by 2nd placed JohnnyArgos' Udinese.

It is incredibly tight at the bottom of the table, where, barring any last day miracles, Scratch's Marseille team are likely to be playing League Two football next season. The last two relegation spots and 3 of the play-off places can be filled by no less than 7 teams so there is much to play for in the last week of the season.

In League Two, Jdog's Palermo sit top and pretty, and barring a last week catastrophe will surely be crowned champions. Nathan's Ajax team are also confirmed promoted in second place.

At the bottom, ASM's Fulham look doomed, but it remains very close to call and with many teams still having 4+ games in hand it's likely to go down to the wire.

Down in the Conference, Lilywhite's Olympiacos have already won the title comfortably, with the battle for 2nd place being between Scottw75's Borussia Dortmund and Bradigor's Getafe.

At the bottom Goat Keeper's Toulouse side and Yiggy's Wigan have both already been relegated into the Ryman League, with 3 sides fighting to avoid that last relegation spot.

Finally in the Ryman League, Prime Aran's Santander side capped off an impressive season by comfortably winning the league with 2 games to spare. Funtime Dave's Cagliari side look favourite to nick the 2nd automatic promotion spot away from Ryanski's Rangers, needing just 2 points from their last 2 games, although PeterUK's Team America FC (for real?!) could also nick 2nd place if Dave and ryanski slip up.

At the bottom, Dimahoo's Lille and inthemix's Internacional will look to bounce back next season, with both currently propping up the rllmuk league structure after both enduring difficult seasons.

20 December 2009 - Season 19 Round-up: Week 9
The Christmas break is upon us but there will still be lots to play for once everyone returns to FIFA in the new year.

Starting as always in The Premiership, Steely has returned to the top of the pile but second-placed Pompey has his sights set on overtaking him with two games in hand. At the other end of the table it's looking ominous for Ricky, Mackenie and Timmo who all find themselves trapped in the bottom three.

Joint-top favourites for the title of The Chumpionship, Sean_L_99 and Yawdib sit first and second in the league respectively, although Sean will be looking over his shoulder cautiously with Yawdib closing to within a point of the leader this week, still with two games in hand. Tomox and Dylan are looking done and dusted at the bottom end of the table, but a late charge appears to be on the cards from Wincho who could end up dragging Chooch into the relegation zone.

League One sees the runaway favourite JaminTastic still on course to prove everyone right, now nine points clear with twelve left to play for. At the wrong end of the table it's looking too close to call at the minute, but Gambit and Scratch will surely be feeling the heat the most as it currently stands.

The ever-confident Jdog is walking to the League Two title at the moment, but favourite Nathan will be attempting to push him all the way from second place. It appears four people are competing not to be one of the three demoted a division next season, but ASM is looking the most likely to take the plunge right now.

Lilywhite looks like a safe bet to top The Conference come the end of the season, but the same could be said of relegation for the three currently occupying the drop-zone. Legendary, Yiggy and The Goat Keeper will all need minor miracles to avoid dropping into the lowest tier.

In The Ryman League ryanski sits top for the moment, but the sheer number of unplayed fixtures down in the bottom tier means pretty much every position is still up for grabs by anyone.

07 December 2009 - Season 19 Round-up: Week 7
We're onto Round 8 of fixtures in Season 19, and the race for promotion and ultimate glory is hotting up nicely!

In The Premiership, and a surprise to some is the presence of pompey88's Liverpool at the top of the tree on 32 points, just 1 point ahead of Steely's Real Madrid in 2nd place.

At the other end of the table, Timmo's Inter Milan have struggled for form so far, and find themselves bottom with 10 points, joined in the relegation zone by fellow strugglers Mackenie's Valencia and SaintM's Chelsea (both on 14 points).

Meanwhile in The Chumpionship, shy posting Sean_L_99's Seville team sit top with 29 points, but they must surely be feeling the pressure with Donnie_Darko's Wolfsburg and Yawdib's Werder Bremen sides lying in 2nd and 3rd respectively, both with games in hand over the Spanish.

At the bottom, Tomox02's Roma are bottom with a miserly 7 points, and must surely be looking forward to life in League One unless their form improves. Joining him in the relegation zone and also looking for a change in fortunes are Dylan's slidey-happy Everton team (11 points) and Wincho's Aston Villa side (12 points).

In League One, the all-round fantastic JaminTastic's Galatasaray team sit on 39 points, and are a clear 9 points ahead of second placed JohnnyArgos's Udinese after overcoming Hereticboy's Sporting Lisbon twice this week. Hereticboy's Lisbon themselves sit 3rd, just 2 points behind the Italians.

Meanwhile in the relegation zone, Scratch's Marseille side's miserable season continued this week, having accrued a paltry 3 points from 12 games. Second from bottom is Petey's worst-team-in-Portugal FC Porto team (12 points) and Sladie's Napoli (13 points).

In League Two, the smoggy dominance is in full swing for the eternally-modest Jdog and his Palermo team, who have 12 wins from 12 games and must surely be preparing for life in League One next season. Nathan's Ajax team must also be a good bet for promotion, as they lie in 2nd place and are a good 12 points ahead of Alshie's Schalke in 3rd place.

At the bottom, veteran rllmuk manager ASM finds himself and his Fulham boys bottom with 7 points, joined in the drop zone by Shoes' PSV and Billy Brown's Stuttgart (both on 10 points), although Billy has the luxury of 4 games in hand on his rivals.

In The Conference, ex prem Lilywhite's Olympiakos side sit top and pretty on 36 points, with popular forumite ex DVDF-er ScottW75's Borussia Dortmund team sitting 8 points behind (but with 2 games in hand) in 2nd place. Part-time BAP manager Bradigor and his Getafe team are two points behind on 26 points.

At the other end of the table, the rllmuk footballing legend that is The Goat Keeper surprisingly finds himself bottom, with his team performing as well as it's name suggests - Toulouse! The French side are on just 4 points, with Yiggy's Wigan above him on 6 points, and El Nino's Atalanta on 7 points.

Finally, in The Ryman League, rllmuk stalwart Ryanski sits top - his Rangers team on 27 points, 4 points clear from PrimeAran's Santander in 2nd place. Scooot's PSG team are in 3rd on 18 points, the French side clearly not benefitting from the managers well renowned light-hearted nature when it comes to playing poorly.

At the very bottom of the pile, and facing relegation to the Doc Martins Premier League South West are Dimahoo's Lille side (4 points), alongside inthemix83's Internacional (7 points) and, rather surprisingly, Big Gus's FC Koln (12 points), although the foul-mouthed scotsman would like to point out he does have 2 games in hand on teams above him.
