And again!

So it's the end of another gameweek, and here are the results of Week 26:

Division 1
scott7a 53-2 punkpoet
punkpoet is relegated to Division 2

Division 2
beenjammin 35-11 sarny_lad
beenjammin 35-19 ritcho
ritcho 20-36 sarny_lad
beenjammin is promoted to Division 1, ritcho is relegated to Division 3

Division 3
w_hoolahan 27-36 jose_enrique
w_hoolahan BYE-N/S dgeneratio
jose_enrique BYE-N/S dgeneratio
jose_enrique is promoted to Division 2, dgeneratio is relegated to Division 4

Division 4
clooneman 9-48 irish_ninja
lethal_playa 39-26 irish_ninja
clooneman 28-37 lethal_playa
lethal_playa is promoted to Division 3, clooneman is relegated to Division 5

Division 5
mattywellie N/S-deact. tweedweasle
mattywellie N/S-BYE potlimit
tweedweasle deact.-BYE potlimit
potlimit is promoted to Division 4, mattywellie and tweedweasle leave the competition

Division 6
9ballsniper_ 7-37 powerfool
powerfool is promoted to Division 5

scott7a remains the man at the top of the pile, and faces another challenge in Division 1 from beenjammin. w_hoolahan and jose_enrique just make it over the line. Otherwise, I think I would have promoted no-one. In that division, dgeneratio unfortunately takes a tumble down a division due to computer problems I believe. I get relegated down to Division 5 for the moment, tweedweasle who has deactivated can be considered well and truly gone, and mattywellie remains gameless for a while now, so we say goodbye to him until he makes his return.

Now, we have some new players, so here are the preliminary divisions in Week 27:

Division 1
scott7a
beenjammin

Division 2
punkpoet
sarny_lad
jose_enrique

Division 3
ritcho
w_hoolahan
lethal_playa

Division 4
dgeneratio*
irish_ninja
potlimit*

Division 5
clooneman
powerfool
9ballsniper_

Division 6
empty

9ballsniper_ gets sucked up to Division 5 due to the absences. And I've decided that the new players will enter Divisions 6 and 7 based on their straight rankings as they stand now.

Division 6
lethal_lures
erigert
sean9

Division 7
crazzymadman
bluenose1872

Week 27 update

The Division 1 game hasn't been played yet... Division 2 looks like it could come down to a magical three-way tie again. The banning of sean99 in Division 6 basically leaves lethal_lures as winner of that division. And the other divisions have been very, verrrry quiet....

Apart from potlimit (offline for 22 days) and sean9 (banned), everyone has been online within the past 24 hours.

Results so far
Division 2
sarny_lad 30-36 jose_enrique
punkpoet 15-36 sarny_lad

Cool story bro, wanna medal ?


.......wow.....

Chris gets it! Well done.

It didn't happen in 1930 (first tournament), 1934 (Uruguay didn't take part) or 1938 (Italy defended their title).

As for the last three times, in 2002 France got one point in their three group games without scoring a goal, so maybe all three teams helped put them out. In 2006, France beat 2002 champions Brazil before losing to Italy in the final, who in turn got dumped out in the group stages in 2010, a defeat to Slovakia in their last group game doing the damage.

As for the other guesses; those teams weren't undefeated; for example, Hungary lost to West Germany in the final of 1954. Drug tests probably weren't around in the early days, and the 1950 tournament, to name but one, had as its top scorer Ademir from Brazil. Professionalism was well and truly in by this stage also.

Your go!
