montag august 19 - 13:04 Well, here we are, season 82. Everyone present and correc.... oh, wait a minute, no Bakerman of course. He's embarked on an epic challenge of building up two new clubs. A sad loss to League of England fans but it opens the door for someone else to make it to the top of the pile.
I think the Abbot's men will be extremely tough to stop this season. To be honest, I'd have had them as favourites even without Bakerman's shock departure. That level of shrewd investment is making the Daoists irresistible.
Elsewhere in the league, Seaburn continues the slow rebuild. Some of the players from this interim period are reaching the end of their careers. Sales - some planned, some incredibly lucky - have raised enough money to keep the Beach's construction teams from making endless sandcastles and museum levels. It looks like Seaburn's planners have ignored the warnings and are building their YA4 on an ancient accountant burial ground. There is talk of strange noises in the night which resemble the clicking of abacuses and there was the ledger found in the ground with its prophecy of financial doom etched into it. Sceptics say this is hog wash and point to the existence of the abacus testing facility next door to the construction site as the source of the sounds. They also argue that the ledger will have come from the old factory that went bankrupt and was pulled down to make way for the Beach's YA4.
Oxford United has left us and the game after a truly remarkable season of failing to muster any points at all. This feat can of course never be beaten and I hope no one is planning to match it!
Enjoy the season everyone. I hope the last few days of the transfer window are kind to you.
