   Hey guys, i'm no pro at these write ups but i think i'll give it a go at the halfway point of the season.
   Not much of a surprise but considering the form of the Borg and jellybellies, Shauns American Misfits are playing some unreal football at the moment claiming 1st place at the halfway point. A strong 4 point lead over the bellies has him aiming to captain the UCB next season! Jellybellies are having a nice run themselves but aren't used to taking this many losses of late and will hope to regain the championship he deserved last season. As always The Borg are not far from the top and if i were the Misfits or the Bellies i'd be looking over my shoulder on a regular basis.
   We have a 3 way tie for 4th place which has been a tight battle all season with Burnaby, Realale, And the Valleys Commandos who are playing for pride more than anything the remainder of the season. with 26 points for each and 14 points behind the leaders it may be out of reach to claim a title barring an amazing turn of events.
   The middle of the pack has Crystal City holding 12th position however it seems a rebuild is taking place and may be a couple seasons before they regain their strong finish from last season.
   Last but not least Bored FC are struggling to avoid relegation and are finding 8-1-1 a very tough conference, they are a strong team and i wouldn't be surprised to see them regian their form next season and make their way back to the top div.
   Congratulations to our Conference on a UCB title last season and good luck to our Boys this season, lets see the title remain in conference 8!!

   Enjoy the final 15 games and expect lots of shuffling throughout the remaining games, can the Misfits hold on or will the Bellies or Borg claim the throne??

   Cheers, Canuck.

Nice one Canuck

[northstar]

Congrats Jellybellies, worthy champ

[Canuck]

Yes indeed, Iwopp put on quite the second half show dominating the league to take first place with 2 games remaining. Congrats to your second title in as many seasons.

[iwopp]

Cheers guys 
Well chuffed to have won it three seasons running
Didn't think i stood a chance halfway through the season.

[The Borg]

Congratulations Mr Iwopp.

[Canuck]

Hey Con8,

I have started preparing the UCB and I'm planning on going with the teams entered last season. I will post them up again in case you want to make changes or if some of the entered teams are no longer willing to participate. I would appreciate it if the teams involved could indicate if they're still willing to enter. I apologize for taking so long to organize this, but it's quite a hectic summer for me. 

Con8 UCB selection:

1. Jellybellies Confirmed
2. American Misfits Message sent, awaiting confirmation
3. The Borg Confirmed
4. Realale Madrid Possible swap with Burnaby Fc

if not i'll still enter if neeeded.

[Canuck]

Thanks for the offer Northstar, it will ultimatly be up to Iwopp if he would like the swap. I will give it a go or leave it to you either way is fine with me. i definetly enjoy the UCB as one of the best leagues in Sunday league so if im there ill play my heart out  and don't be mad, your record vs me is much better than i would like it to be, you win at least 75%

Ok just waiting for Larry to reply and also waiting on a decision regarding Realale Madrid and Burnaby FC

[Turner]

Hey Guys,

I sent another message to Larry just in case I messed up the first time. If he doesn't reply soon you will have 2 open spots for the UCB, which can be filled by Realale Madrid and Burnaby FC. I'll keep you informed 

Just in case Larry gives the ok who would be the other team, Realale Madrid or Burnaby FC? I believe they left it up to Iwopp to decide.
