13 Punjab Hurricanes 17 3 4 10 26 38 13
14 Serbian White Eagles 15 2 1 12 9 37 7

With the restructuring, 3 teams will be relegated this year.

I think we can all agree that Serbia is going down... and teams with 22 points and greater are safe. So who will be joining Serbia in Div 1 next year? Croatia? Akal? Sapperton? Hurricanes?

Based on recent form, my gut tells me that Croatia and the Hurricanes will grind it out and stay up. Akal is in shambles. Sapp is on a dreadful run. And Serbia has too much ground to make up, unfortunately.

Comments?

Concur on the White Eagles and Akal but I think Sapp will make it interesting and send one of Crotia/Hurricanes down. The sun has temporarily set on Slavic teams IMO...

Looks like the popular opinion thus far is that Serbia, Akal, and Sapperton will go down. The rest of the season is going to be a battle for all teams below 20 points. Thank God we are not one of them (for a change). Should be some great contests to finish out the season!

Rekindling this thread...

Bottom of the table currently looks like this:

# Team GP W T L GF GA PTS
9 Croatia SC 23 7 6 10 24 26 27
10 Westside FC 23 6 9 8 22 28 27
11 Punjab Hurricanes 24 7 5 12 38 48 26
12 Sapperton Rovers 24 6 6 12 19 43 24
13 Akal FC 23 4 6 13 26 51 18
14 Serbian White Eagles 23 3 2 18 17 54 11

Serbia is done. Again.

Croatia's remaining games: West Van, Surrey, Pegasus
Westside's remaining games: Akal, Serbia, Inter
Punjab's remaining games: Pegasus, Columbus
Sapperton's remaining games: Delta, Metro Ford
Akal's remaining games: Westside, West Van, Surrey

Croatia is defending well presently and I could see them getting 4 points in their last 3 games.
A dream end to a nightmare season for Westside... they will be fine.
Punjab is in tough to get anything out of the rest of the season.
Sapperton has two tough teams remaining... but they have nothing to play for... and could face quite a few subs. Cloughie's crew is not done yet.
Akal needs two wins in three games to tie Sapperton... not going to happen.

Should be an interesting finish, but I am still sticking with Serbia, Akal, and Sapperton heading back to Div 1.

So that officially puts Akal in Div 1 next year, no?

Regs, they were officially down before this weekend even started. 2 games left means a max of 24 points, and Hurricanes were on 26 pts in 11th spot (12th, 13th, and 14th go down)

PREMIER DIVISION # Team GP W T L GF GA PTS
10 Croatia SC 24 7 7 10 24 26 28
11 Sapperton Rovers 25 7 6 12 20 43 27
12 Punjab Hurricanes 24 7 5 12 38 48 26
13 Akal FC 25 4 6 15 27 61 18
14 Serbian White Eagles 25 3 2 20 17 63 11


Croatia has: Surrey, Pegasus
Sapperton has: Metro Ford
Punjab has: Pegasus, Columbus

I think Croatia will finish with 28 but will Sapp or Punjab earn any points? It is too close to call, really.

With a Sapp loss and a Punjab tie... would it be a one-game relegation playoff?

I will admit, it does seem strange to not be a part of the relegation fight...

Croatia will sneak at least one point out of the two Imperial Cup finalists.........:eek: I'm guessing Metro Ford will be giving their young guys a chance in the last game against Sapperton so they will sneak at least one point. Come to think of it, I have no idea who is going to stay up.

Final games - Hurricanes v Columbus and Sapperton v Metro Ford

A lot of work for both teams. There must be some nice incentives being put out there this weekend....

Another note (from the league rules):
5.2. In the event of two teams having the same number of points at the end of the league schedule, and providing that this situation affects the promotion or relegation of teams, a one game playoff on a neutral ground shall take place with extra time periods. If the teams are still tied after extra time, a penalty kick series will be used to decide the winner.

Well, at least both the Hurricanes and Sapperton control their own destiny. Win your last game(s), and you survive.

Here's hoping for a one game playoff!

:cool:

I can see Sapp smashing MF...they've been brutal of late.

NOT good to be going into provincials on a major losing skid:cool:


Heard after last night's game from one of the Hurricanes guys that they only have 7 first team players available on Sunday and the rest of the numbers are going to be made up with U-16's and U-18's on permit. Shocking at any time of year but especially for such an important game! I guess Vegas is more important than survival!

Sixfyv, why was the Hurricanes result a good result for your team? I thought you already had 3rd place locked up? Am I missing something? :confused:

It's not the first time you miss something Cappy.
