Last season’s winner of the League’s Fantasy Premier League, Sam Bastable, was deprived of successive titles by his former club supremo, Paul Waddell, whose team Waddell’s Wanderers accumulated 2571 points, comfortably Paul’s highest ever total.

With 2555, Sam’s team, ABCDEFC scored higher than last season’s winning total of 2525 and was followed by JAH-MEK-YAH (Michael Crawford) on 2547, All Over The Szob (Ben McAlinden) with 2543 and Just Stop Doyle (James Endersby) on 2516, these being the only teams to finish with more than 2500 points.

Despite a good finish to the season, the League Secretary finished wandering around on just 2330 points in 19th place, just above the MightyBouche of Aymeric de Vimal du Bouchet who, despite their lowly League placing, reached the final of the Cup competition, losing 54-88 to Sam Bastable’s ABCDEFC, providing him with some consolation and meaning that both competitions were won by former Emmanuel Lightning players.
