END OF SEASON 1.
First off, a massive thank you to all chairmen for their involvement in this inspite of the numerous technical difficulties! I appreciate the support and will try to keep next season relatively glitch-free.
This update won't contain any game-by-game results. Rather, it'll just contain the end of season league tables and stuff. The save will be uploaded for you to check out your results.

Champions: Arsenal
You normally wouldn't associate the tag 'free-spending' with Arsenal, but spend is exactly what the Arsenal chairman has done all year and he ends up with the league title in his hands.
Runners-up: Manchester City
Impressive season overall with 88 points. Unfortunately, Arsenal were just too good!
Champions League spots: Manchester United, Chelsea
Manchester United recover from a slow start to the season to finish third in the league. Chelsea manage to finish in fourth, one point above Tottenham, thereby condemning the latter to Europa League football once again.
Europa League Qualification: Tottenham Hotspur, Liverpool, Swansea City
Relegation to the Championship: Aston Villa, Watford, Bournemouth
Promoted from the Championship: QPR, Derby, Wolves (play-off winners)

Once again, no surprises as PSG comfortably beat Monaco to the post. Huge shocker though as Lyon finish all the way down in 13th.

UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE

Champions: Arsenal
A remarkable double for Arsenal, as they beat Manchester City on penalties. Surely, they'll be favorites again next year!
UEFA EUROPA LEAGUE

Champions: Borussia Dortmund
BVB beat Fiorentina (who by the way, knocked Barcelona out in the semis) in the Final. Tottenham were the best English team, making it to the semi-final before getting obliterated in the second leg by Dortmund.
UEFA EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIP - Group Stage Watch
View attachment 183067
England with a slightly tricky group, drawn alongside hosts France and Ukraine.
View attachment 183066
Spain with a relatively straightforward draw. Would expect them to have more firepower than the three teams they've been drawn alongside.
View attachment 183065
Germany with possibly the hardest group. Expect stiff competition from the likes of Croatia and Denmark, while one can never, ever count Greece out.

CHAIRMAN OF THE YEAR
Please send emails to
[email protected] with your votes for Chairman of the Year! Include the club you're Chairman of, who you vote for, and a one line reason for your vote! You've got until 11:59 PM BST on Wednesday! Once that is done, preparations for the next season will commence.
Also, chairmen of relegated clubs can pick from the three promoted clubs right now. The team that finishes 18th picks first, then 19th, then 20th. Since I finished 18th, I pick QPR (think I deserve it too, after having to go through the emotional trauma of handling Aston Villa)
That leaves Wolves and Derby for you guys to pick!
